If you have a new machine as well as your old machine and a home network or flash drive etc and simply want to transfer your nwn to the new machine, then the easiest thing to do is use windows explorer to copy from the old machine to the new, and then delete it from the old machine. You keep all your settings and everything using this method. (Only use this method if your NWN is patched and working perfectly)

There is a work-around for situations where only an older, un-updated version is available.  This has just been tested by apunyfly who had a situation where the machine that contained the game files could not be updated beforehand, probably due to lack of Internet connection (I didn't really inquire further about why).

What we did was use a copy of the registry keys from my installation as a baseline.  Then the information was modified to match the original installation and the actual location on the current machine. (In this case, it had been installed on the D: drive and IIRC was v1.59.) Then the v1.69 patch was applied and installed successfully.

So, apparently, all the patches need to install on any version of copied NWN folders/files are the registry entries in place and they can find what they need.  Exactly which of these entries are most critical to the installation is not clear since we simply replicated the entire NWN key configuration.  But it works just fine and was actually quite easy to manage with only a slight understanding of how to manipulate the registry (that is what Windows is all about, eh?). 

So for those who can only copy an older version and have downloaded the appropriate patch for that version, here is a method that will successfully get the game running under the most recent patch, v1.69.  I'm thinking perhaps, since I've already compiled the key information myself to send to apunyfly, that it could be posted somewhere for posterity.

ini file setting additions/changes
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
- Added new nwnplayer.ini file settings, so that red/green color blind users don't get killed by traps unexpectedly.
   [Trap Colors]
   FriendlyColor=0,255,0
   HostileColor=255,0,0
- Added ability to turn off visible cloaks in the nwnplayer.ini file (set to 1 to enable cloaks, 0 for no visible cloaks).
   [Game Options]
   Visible Cloaks=1
- Added in-game text swear filter nwnplayer.ini setting (set to 1 to enable, only supports English).
   [Game Options]
   In-game Text Swear Filter=0
- Added new nwnplayer.ini file setting to always roll maximum hit points at level up for players (defaults to off).
   [Server Options]
   Max Hit Points=1
- Added new nwnplayer.ini file setting to not display the hit points rolled on the level up summary gui (defaults to off).
   [Server Options]
   Hide Hit Points Gained=0
- Added new nwnplayer.ini file setting to restore the remaining spell uses from the character file on log in to a "server vault" server. This option defaults to off.
   [Server Options]
   Restore Spell Uses On Login=0
- Added new nwn.ini file setting to set how far into the distance grass should be rendered (default value 900.0, valid values range from 900.0 to 30000.0).  Increasing this value will cause more grass to be rendered in outdoor grassy areas, but will also reduce game performance in these areas.
   [Video Options]
   Grass Far Render Distance=900.0
- Added new nwnplayer.ini file setting to toggle on/off the file logging of creature deaths.
   [Game Options]
   Death Logging=0
- Added new nwnplayer.ini file setting to reset the encounter level spawned by an encounter trigger every time that it spawns creatures. If this option is turned on, the encounter trigger will always spawn creatures based on the triggering player's level rather than potentially using left over spawned creature from an early triggering that was initiated by a much higher level player.
   [Server Options]
   Always Reset Encounter Spawns=0
- Updated Get2DAString() scripting command 2da caching code to cache a number of 2das specified in an ini setting.
   [Server Options]
   2DA Cache Size=10
- Added new nwnplayer.ini file setting to log each script as it executes (defaults to off). Enabling this will degrade game performance. It should only be used for script debugging purposes (i.e. when you have a bad script that causes your module to lock up, checking the log file will let you know the last script that executed).
   [Script Options]
   Enable Logging=1
- Added new nwnplayer.ini file setting to obtain script profiling data in the log file (defaults to off). Enabling this will degrade game performance. It should only be used to determine which scripts you need to optimize to improve the performance of your module. Note: "Enable Logging" should be turned off when profiling is enabled.
   [Script Options]
   Enable Profiling=1
- Added new option to the nwtoolset.ini file to set the toolset CPU affinity on multi-core computers. If you have more than one CPU on your PC, then you can use this setting to make the toolset run on only one of the CPUs by specifying the number of the CPU (0-31). Setting "CPU Affinity=-1" will turn off CPU affinity (default 0).
   [Start Up]
   "CPU Affinity".
- The nwnplayer.ini setting for "Client CPU Affinity" now defaults to 0 (a setting of -1 will be converted to 0). If you need to disable this feature set the value to -2.

- Fixes to Whirlwind/Improved Whirlwind/Great Cleave so that all the attacks are done at the player's full BAB.
- The Defensive Roll feat now works 1/day as per the description.

- When attempting to examining a trap, you no longer get all the trap's information when you fail to examine it.
- The area behind a door that was bashed down will now become properly explored.
- Fixed the displayed TAG name when using the console command "dm_dumplocals" on an item or creature object.
- Fixed an issue where the text window feedback message that states that "Your journal has been updated." wasn't properly replacing custom tokens.
- Fixed a few memory leaks.
- Made some fixes to prevent game/character hacking. Sorry, but we will never publicly discuss specific changes to the game with regards to hacking the game.

DM Client:
=-=-=-=-=-
- Added the ability for DMs to spawn in traps on doors/placeables through the creator (and quickbar slots dragged from the creator menu).
- Made custom triggers and traps from the DM creator menu spawn in correctly (rather than spawn in as a default trap).
- The DM instant kill key (default 'Y') now also works on non-plot items that are on the ground.
- Added a new "Give Alignment Shift" sub radial to the DM's Give/Take creature radial menu.
- Added an "Examine" option to the DM's Examine Creature sub-radial menu.
- When a DM 'Examines' a PC, it will now display their Experience and GP totals as well.
- When a DM 'Examines' an item, it will now also display the value of the item in GP.
- Made a change to try and reduce game lag that has been reported to occur when a DM possesses a creature that is part of a very large faction.

Neverwinter Nights Aurora Toolset:
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-==-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

- As if the above wasn't enough, we also added new parameters to the following scripting commands:
   GetAbilityScore(object oCreature, int nAbilityType, int nBaseAbilityScore=FALSE)
   GetSkillRank(int nSkill, object oTarget=OBJECT_SELF, int nBaseSkillRank=FALSE)
   SetTrapDetectedBy(object oTrap, object oDetector, int bDetected=TRUE)

   CreateItemOnObject(string sItemTemplate, object oTarget=OBJECT_SELF, int nStackSize=1, string sNewTag="")
   GetName(object oObject, int bOriginalName=FALSE)
   ActionRest(int bCreatureToEnemyLineOfSightCheck=FALSE)
   RandomName(int nNameType=NAME_FIRST_GENERIC_MALE)
- Added a new OnClick event type for placeables. This event fires immediately when a PC left clicks on a placeable (regardless of how far away they are from the placeable, or whether or not they can reach the placeable for whatever reason).
 To obtain the player that left clicked on the placeable object, call GetPlaceableLastClickedBy() in the placeable's OnClick script.
- Added 53 new VFX_DUR_AURA_* visual effects (VisualEffects.2da) for use with the scripting command EffectVisualEffect().
- Added 80 new visual effect constants (VisualEffects.2da) for use with the scripting command EffectVisualEffect(). These use the new constants VFX_DUR_AURA_*, VFX_EYES_* and VFX_DUR_BUBBLES.
- Added new FOOTSTEP_TYPE_* constants to nwscript.nss (FootstepSounds.2da)
- Added the ability to force a placeable to be non-static (grey out the static checkbox) for any placeable using skin mesh. This is toggleable in the placeables.2da in a "Static" column. Defaults to allow if column missing.
- Added Hook Hands and Peg Leg armor appearance variations to the toolset.
- Added new Trident weapon models to the toolset under Polearms (x2_inc_itemprop.nss, x0_i0_match.nss). There are no new Trident specific weapon feats associated with Tridents at this time (BaseItems.2da).
- Added a new Shipwreck group to the desert tileset.
- Added 4 new groups to the city exterior tileset (Merchant Ship and Weather Ship variations).
- Added option to skip multiple hak pak warning message to the nwtoolset.ini file "Display Hak Warning=1"
- The scripting command GetResRef() now works on areas, stores and waypoints.
- The scripting command PlayAnimation() now works on doors (use the new animation constants ANIMATION_DOOR_*).
- The scripting command GetclassByPosition() will now work with community made custom classes.
- Made the scripting command CopyItemAndModify() work with arrows and bolts using the constants ITEM_APPR_TYPE_WEAPON_*
- Added random facing button to the toolset.  This button allows you to select one or more things and change their facing to a random direction.
- Added option to skip multiple hak pak warning message to the nwtoolset.ini file, section [Start Up], "Display Hak Warning=1"
- Fixed crashes caused by passing in invalid area/module objects to the scripting commands SetListenPattern() and GetMatchedSubstring() (or running these from an area/module event).
- Fixed scripting command ItemPropertyImmunityToSpellLevel(), it was creating a spell immunity property that was one level lower than what it should have been creating.
- Fixed a typo in the constant name IP_CONST_FEAT_USE_POISON. If you recompile a script that uses the old name, you will need to update your script to use the new fixed name.
- Fixed a typo in the constant name FOOTSTEP_TYPE_SOFT. If you recompile a script that uses the old name, you will need to update your script to use the new fixed name.
- Fixed an issue with the incorrect door type showing up for the "Turfhouse Interior 2x2" in the Ruins tileset (tdr01.set).
- Fixed an issue with no door showing up for the "Cloak Tower 2x2" in the Rural Winter tileset (tts01.set).
- Fixed an issue with the door being rotated for the "Turf House 2" in the Rural Winter tileset (tts01.set).
- Fixed the Rural Tileset - Wall 2 Gate w/Road model for people that have HotU installed.
- Fixed a visual issue with the campfire placeable (plc_i06.mdl).
- Fixed the level up wizard duplicating Special Abilities from the Creature Properties window.

Scripting-specific:
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
- Added new TileMagic functions in x2_inc_toollib.nss that make use of GetAreaSize:
   void TLResetAreaGroundTilesEx(object oArea);
   void TLChangeAreaGroundTilesEx(object oArea, int nGroundTileConst, float fZOffset = -0.4f );
- Added a new Creature name randomization feature to the default OnSpawn script ("nw_c2_default9.nss")
 By setting a new variable int X2_NAME_RANDOM to 1 on a creature template in the toolset, the module creature
 can now tell creatures to randomize their name on Spawn. By default this will cause the creature to change it's name to
 a name generated by the RandomName command.
 For module builders not satisfied with the name selection provided by the RandomName command, the ability
 to override this behavior with a random name generation script of their choice has been included:
 If a script called "x3_name_gen.nss" exists in a module, it will be executed on spawn of any creature template that has
 random name generation activated. The builder can then specify a return value for that custom name generation script by
 setting a string variable named "X3_S_RANDOM_NAME" on OBJECT_SELF (the creature spawning), which will then be used
 instead of RandomName().
- Made Web Bolt attacks respect the Woodland stride feat (nw_s1_bltweb.nss).
- Fixed a typo in the impact script name for "Greater Fox's Cunning" in the spells.2da that was causing the spell to not work.
- Changed implosion so that it no longer affects the caster (nw_s0_implosion.nss).
- Changed the way the damage was being calculated for the shifter's various wyrmling and dragon breath attacks to make it more random (x2_s1_wyrmbreath.nss, x2_s2_edragbrth.nss).
- Fixed an issue with the way the reflex saving throw was being done in DoMissileStorm() (x0_i0_spells.nss).
- Fixed an issue with Cloud of Bewilderment not respecting poison immunity (x2_s0_cldbewlda.nss, x2_s0_cldbewldc.nss).
- Finger of Death now properly respects immunity to death magic on a failed save (NW_S0_FingDeath.NSS).
- Fixed a bug with MatchSingleHandedWeapon and MatchDoubleHandedWeapon returning the incorrect value for some weapon types (x0_i0_match.nss)
- Mass Blindness/Deafness now only affects enemies even on the harder difficulty settings (nw_s0_massbldf.nss).

Custom Content:
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
- Change to allow plt texture support on custom created part based creature races. Part based creatures (past row 481 in the appearance.2da) will now use a plt texture name based on the "RACE" letter specified in the appearance.2da (rather than always using the pfh0_ prefix). If your custom part based creature is past row 481 in the appearance.2da and you haven't specified the race specific PLT texture the game will use the human PLT texture by default.
- Fixed an issue with how the caster level was being calculated for classes that used the ArcSpellLvlMod and DivSpellLvlMod values in the classes.2da (for values other than 2).
- Added custom grass texture support to the tileset set file. The new grass texture entry is "GrassTextureName". For example specifying the following in the set file:
   [GRASS]
   Grass=1
   GrassTextureName=my_grass
 Will cause "my_grass.tga" (maximum of 16 characters and do not include the .tga extension in the name) to be used as the grass texture for the tileset. The game will default to the usual "grass.tga" if "GrassTextureName" is not specified.
- Fixed an issue where new names added to the SavingThrowTable column in the classes.2da were causing the toolset to behave erratically.
- Added support for prestige class prerequisite type "SAVE" (used in the CLS_PRES_*.2da files).
    ReqParam1           ReqParam2
    1 = Fort Save       Minimum Base Save Required
    2 = Ref Save        Minimum Base Save Required
    3 = Will Save       Minimum Base Save Required
- Note to custom tilelset makers: When creating custom tilsets, don't forget to create a corresponding entry for the new tileset in the areag.ini file.  The "Interior" flag must match that from the .set file created.
- Updated the DefaultIcon column of the BaseItems.2da to have new entries. This fixes an issue with taking hak pak specific items into a non-hak pak module which in turn was causing your inventory to start behaving erratically.
- Changed the behavior of in game Robe inventory icons. The icon will now also display non-hidden body parts as specified in the parts_robe.2da (the icon will only display the robe, pelvis, belt, torso and shoulders).
- Added a new "DefaultPhenoType" column to the phenotype.2da. The number specified in this column will be the phenotype that will be used in the case where the model does not exist for the desired phenotype (e.g. when using the SetPhenoType() scripting command).
- Made Head models use the same "DefaultPhenoType" system as above (rather than your head just disappearing if the model didn't exist for the desired phenotype).
- Wings/Tails will now use PLT textures if they exist (defaulting to using the creature's skin color), if a PLT texture does not exist for the model then the texture will default to using the TGA instead.

Patch details for 1.66:
Neverwinter Nights Game
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
WARNING! AS OF THIS PATCH, ALL MODULES CREATED/SAVED WITH THE VERSION 1.66 TOOLSET ARE TAGGED AS REQUIRING VERSION 1.66 OR HIGHER OF NEVERWINTER NIGHTS GAME OR TOOLSET.
IF YOU DON'T WANT TO BRAND YOUR MODULE AS 1.66 THEN DO NOT EDIT YOUR MODULE IN THE VERSION 1.66 TOOLSET.
IF YOU WANT TO GO BACK TO 1.65, WE WILL HAVE A 1.66 TO 1.65 PATCH AVAILABLE.
- Official Campaign: Chapter 2E  - Made Voleron's OnDeath script a bit more robust.
- HotU: Chapter 2 - Fixed an issue that could sometimes occur during the battle in the Environs near the end of Chapter 2. You should no longer get stuck and be unable to move if the Battle Herald does not approach you and initiate a conversation with you (this fix will retroactively fix saved games exhibiting this issue, but only if you load a saved game from before you entered the Environs).
- Added a new command line parameter for automatically loading a module in single player. This will cause the module to be loaded and takes the player to the premade character select screen.
   +LoadNewModule "module name that needs quotes if it contains spaces"
- Added a new command line parameter for automatically testing a module in single player. This will cause the module to be loaded and then starts the module using the first character listed on the premade character select screen.
   +TestNewModule "module name that needs quotes if it contains spaces"
- Added 3 portraits and 3 music themes from the BioWare Premium Modules Kingmaker, ShadowGuard, and Witch's Wake 1 to game resources.
- Fixed an issue that was causing the game to slow down and become unplayable at the start of SoU Chapter 2.
- Fixed an issue with creatures some times occupying the same space.  This should happen a lot less frequently now.
- Extended the glowing monk eye effect to work on all the default playable races.
- Neutral monks now get ultra cool purple glowing eyes.
- Fixed placement of glowing monk eyes on Human/Half-Elf females (much thanks to the DLA team for their help with this).
- Fixed placement of helmets on Human/Half-Elf females (much thanks to the DLA team for their help with this).
- Added server support for the ability to refuse player login attempts if the master server could not be reached. In the nwnplayer.ini files under the heading [Server Options] set the follwowing option to '1' "Master Server Authentication Required For Player Login=1"
- Added the ability to turn on/off the Heartbeat logging in the log file (default is now off). In the nwnplayer.ini file under [Game Options] set "Heartbeat Logging=1" in order to turn the Heartbeat logging back on.
- Added a new nwnplayer.ini setting to have the server do some spell validation for spells cast by players. Under [Server Options] set "Validate Spells=1". Note: If you are using an edited spells.2da that is only being used server side, you may want to disable this option if your players are finding that they can't cast certain spells anymore (the log file should indicated if this is happening).
- Added new option to the nwnplayer.ini file under [Server Options] "Account validation required during Master Server down times=1" If this option is turned on, the server will track the public CD-Keys of each player logging onto the server. If the Master Server ever goes down for any reason (e.g. for scheduled maintenance) then the server will validate itself that the player name of any new player trying to connect is in fact using the same public cd-key that they last logged in with.
- Fixed an issue with the Greater Sanctuary icon some times incorrectly showing up as the regular Sanctuary icon.
- Fixed an issue with Damage Immunities not working correctly once they were stacked way too high above 100%.

- The "Single Player Enforce Legal Characters" setting in the nwnplayer.ini file has been disabled. ELC is now always turned off in single player games.
- Fixed an issue that was causing creatures to always face east when sitting on a stool placeable (plc_x05.pwk).
- Fixed another issue where under specific circumstances items would not show up in your inventory panel.
- Immunity to mind spells no longer makes you immune to the Assasin's Death Attack.
- Sneak/Death attacks now properly respect the Pale Master's Deathless Mastery feat.
- Fixed a minor animation issue that could occur if you performed a Whirlwind attack while you had some 2 handed weapons equipped.
- Fixed some issues with Tile "time of day" animations. This was causing flickering and other issues at the end of a DayToNight/NightToDay transition.
- Fixed an issue with the Force Field door sounds using the default wooden door sounds (placeableobjsnds.2da, genericdoors.2DA).
- Fixed an issue related to copying a creature from a hak pak through scripting and then saving and loading the hak pak saved game from inside gameplay (was causing some different weird issues).
- Added support for WeaponType 5 (Bludgeoning and Piercing) in the BaseItems.2da.
- Updated Morningstars to use the new Bludgeoning and Piercing WeaponType (BaseItems.2da).
- The following weapons have had their WeaponType changed to 3 (Slashing) in the BaseItems.2da in order to bring them inline with 3rd edition D&D rules (and their NWN in game descriptions): Longsword, Bastard sword, Greatsword, Katana, and Double Axe.
- Added missing armor proficiency to Gnolls.
- Made some fixes to prevent game/character hacking. Sorry, but we will never publicly discuss specific changes to the game with regards to hacking the game.

DM Client:
=-=-=-=-=-
- DMs can now still login to a server when the server is full, so that they are not prevented from performing any required administration tasks. If you go above the 64 player maximum, server performance may be adversely affected until some players leave the server (your mileage may vary).
- The game no longer displays encumbered feedback messages for DMs, since they actually can't ever be encumbered.

Neverwinter Nights Aurora Toolset:
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-==-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
- Added two new item scripting commands GetPickpocketableFlag() and SetPickpocketableFlag().
- Added a "Test Module" option to the toolset's Build menu that allows you to quick launch the game (for testing module changes). Selecting this option will give you the choice of saving your module changes. The game will then automatically launch, load the module, select the first available premade character in the list and enter gameplay with that character. The Hot Key for this new functionality is F9.
- Fixed an error that was causing some of the Group "Home Lower/Upper" tiles in the city interior tileset to appear as duplicates of some of the other "Home" tiles (tinpalstd.itp). This change makes some new "Home" tile types available for placing in the toolset.
- Fixed an issue with answering no to any warnings that appear during module opening causing any subsequently opened module to potentially become corrupt.
- Fixed comments for the scripting commands EffectSavingThrowIncrease and EffectSavingThrowDecrease (nwscript.nss).
- The GetIsImmune() scripting command now reports the proper result when the creature specified has the Pale Master's Deathless Mastery feat.
- Fixed a stack underflow error when the scripting command GetStandardFactionReputation() was called with an invalid creature object as an argument.
- Fixed an issue with the scripting command GetStandardFactionReputation() returning -1 when called on the defender faction with a PC creature object specified.
- Fixed an issue with the scripting command SetFogColor() when used to set the sun fog color in an always dark area (or the moon fog color in an always bright area).
- Added some missing IP_CONST_FEAT_* constants to nwscript.nss
- Fixed a Copy area/script/dialog issue that was making it look like the toolset was loosing data and could sometimes lead to a crash.
- Fixed an issue with the script compiler that could cause a Stack Underflow error when a switch statement was placed inside a Do/While loop. There is also a new command line compiler in the Neverwinter Nights utils directory that includes this fix (clcompile.exe).
- Fixed an issue with the scripting command GetCasterLevel() when used from within a feat script for a feat that was granted at first level (e.g. Cleric Protection Domain Powers).
- Added two new creature related scripting commands GetFootstepType() and SetFootstepType().
- Fixed an issue related to using the scripting command CopyObject() on a player's associate.

Script Debugger:
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
- Fixed a compiler issue that was causing the script debugger (DebugServer.exe that is in your NWN utils directory) to not work properly when stepping into/out of case statements (see the scripting command SpawnScriptDebugger() for more information regarding the script debugger).

Server-specific:
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
- Added server support for the ability to refuse player login attempts if the master server could not be reached. In the nwnplayer.ini files under the heading [Server Options] set the follwowing option to '1' "Master Server Authentication Required For Player Login=1"
- Added the ability to turn on/off the Heartbeat logging in the log file (default is now off). In the nwnplayer.ini file under [Game Options] set "Heartbeat Logging=1" in order to turn the Heartbeat logging back on.
- Added a new nwnplayer.ini setting to have the server do some spell validation for spells cast by players. Under [Server Options] set "Validate Spells=1". Note: If you are using an edited spells.2da that is only being used server side, you may want to disable this option if your players are finding that they can't cast certain spells anymore (the log file should indicated if this is happening).
- Added new option to the nwnplayer.ini file under [Server Options] "Account validation required during Master Server down times=1" If this option is turned on, the server will track the public CD-Keys of each player logging onto the server. If the Master Server ever goes down for any reason (e.g. for scheduled maintenance) then the server will validate itself that the player name of any new player trying to connect is in fact using the same public cd-key that they last logged in with.

Scripting-specific:
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
- Made Invisibility Purge work correctly with Invisibility that is granted through special abilities such as the Assasin's Invisibility (NW_S0_InvPurgeA.NSS).
- Fixed an issue with Wail of the Banshee sometimes requiring the first target to make two saving throws instead of one (nw_s0_wailbansh.nss).
- Implosion now properly ignores immunity to death magic (nw_s0_implosion.nss).
- Fixed the maximized damage healed for cure spells (nw_i0_spells.nss)
- Cure spells now do DAMAGE_TYPE_POSITIVE to undead rather than DAMAGE_TYPE_NEGATIVE (nw_i0_spells.nss).
- Phantasmal Killer now properly respects Fear immunity and properly ignores Death Magic immunity (nw_s0_phankill.nss).
- Weird now properly ignores Death Magic immunity (nw_s0_weird.nss).
- Mind fog now properly respects immunity to mind affecting spells (nw_s0_mindfoga.nss).
- The item properties "Immunity: Specific Spell [Gaze Petrification/Touch Petrification/Breath Petrification]" now work properly against monster petrification effects (x0_i0_spells.nss).
- Fixed an issue with Choking Powder heart beat script not repecting poison immunity ( x0_s3_chokehb.nss ).
- Fixed an issue with the way the damage calculation was being done for the Cone of Frost monster ability (nw_s1_conecold.nss).
- Made the Shifter's Manticore's spike script work correctly in the case when it is inappropriately given to an NPC Manticore monster by mistake (x2_s1_gwspikes.nss).
- Fix to Negative Energy Ray, to properly calculate the damage for a successul saving throw (nw_s0_negray.nss).
- Fixed the extended duration for Divine Favor (x0_s0_divfav.nss).
- Made a change to the Wyrmling Breath, Dragon Breath and Petrifying Gaze attacks used by some of the Shifter shapes. Previously if you targeted yourself with one of these attacks the cone attack would damage creatures East from your location, it will now be directed forwards from your character instead. (x2_s2_edragbrth.nss, x2_s1_wyrmbreath.nss, x2_s1_petrgaze.nss).
- Made the same above fix for the RDD dragon breath ability (x2_s2_discbreath).
- Updated the duration of "Camouflage/Mass Camouflage" to bring these spells more inline with 3rd edition rules (x0_i0_spells.nss, x0_s0_masscamo.nss). Also updated the in game spell descriptions to reflect the change.

Custom Content:
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
- Added a new column to the feat.2da "ReqAction" (all default NWN feats have this value set to 1 and if the column is missing from the feats.2da, such as in a hak pak, it will also default to 1). Turning this off means that the adjusted feat will no longer require an action from the object (it fires immediately, takes no action, and ignores your action queue entirely). In order to use this new functionality you need to do the following:
 1) Set the "ReqAction" value for the feat to 0 in the feat.2da
 2) Have a spellID associated with the feat in the feat.2da.
 3) Have a "ImpactScript" specified in the spells.2da for the spellID that you specified in the feat.2da
 The ImpactScript will then fire immediately when the feat is used.
- Walk meshes now work when placed at heights above -30 (previous lower limit was -10).
- Added an option to change/increase the selector height (when placing tiles) in the tileset "set" file. In order to use this you must add a new setting called "SelectorHeight" to the set file and specify the desired float value for this setting. The selector height will continue to default to the transition height if it has not been specified.
- Added more tile path nodes types m, n, o, and p. For custom tile set support.

TYPE m            TYPE n
   ---------           ---------
   [ | | | ]           [ | | | ]
   [-+ | +-]           [-+ + +-]

- Fixed an issue with the Epic Dodge feedback messages for melee attacks that were being evaded.
- Fixed an issue where your screen could become permanently blacked out under certain circumstances after unpossessing a familiar that was inside an AOE darkness effect.
- Fixed some issues where the Darkness spell, when combined with Ultravision/True Seeing, could under specific circumstances incorrectly make you blind when your Ultravision/True Seeing wore off.
- Fixed "On Hit: Sleep" item property, so that it works again.
- Made some fixes to prevent game/character hacking. Sorry, but we will never publicly discuss specific changes to the game with regards to hacking the game.

DM Client:
=-=-=-=-=-
- The DM difficulty slider tooltip will now display the current difficulty setting
- Fixed a crash that could happen when minimizing the game.
- Fixed an issue with issuing commands to groups of creatures (such as trying to make them run).
- Fixed an issue where the DM's screen could end up being permanently blacked out after the DM unpossessed a creature that was inside an AOE darkness effect.

Neverwinter Nights Aurora Toolset:
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-==-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
- Added new GetSkyBox(), GetFogColor(), GetFogAmount() and SetFogAmount() scripting commands.
- Fixed a problem with variables being lost from items that were placed inside a container.
- Fixed a "List index out of bounds (0)" error that could occur when there were no sounds in the sound list on the Sound Properties menu.
- The scripting command GetName() now works with stores.
- The scripting command GetItemPossessedBy() now works with stores.
- GetEffectType() will now return EFFECT_TYPE_ETHEREAL for the greater sanctuary effect (was incorrectly returning EFFECT_TYPE_SANCTUARY).
- Fixed the following scripting commands to return the correct information (they were reversed before): GetAnimalCompanionName(), GetAnimalCompanionCreatureType(), GetFamiliarName(), GetFamiliarCreatureType(). If you recompile any scripts that use these scripting commands, you will need to update your scripts to use the new (proper) functionality.
- Fixed an issue with GetSpellSaveDC() returning the DC of any new spell cast (or feat used) by the creator of an AOE spell when called from within the AOE's heartbeat script (rather than returning the DC of the originally cast AOE spell).
- Extended the scripting command EffectHeal(), so that it now also works on doors and placeables.
- Fixed a couple of issues with the ResistSpell() scripting command:
   - First issue occurred when it was called from within an AOE heart beat script after the caster had cast a new spell since casting the original AOE spell, the AOE spell could stop working under these conditions (it should now work properly).
   - Second issue was with the spell immunity check not returning the proper result when called with the caster object specified as an AOE object.

Scripting-specific:
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
- Bigby's Grasping/Crushing Hand spells now properly affect creatures that are immune to mind affecting spells (x0_s0_bigby3.nss, x0_s0_bigby5.nss).
- Weird now properly handles creatures that are immune to mind-affecting and fear

               One of our members has solved a problem some of you may be having installing/running the Kingmaker module under Win7.

Here is the solution posted in that thread:

I had problems installing my Kingmaker as well on Windows 7. What I did to make it work is when it asks where
you want to install the game, by default it'll put it in Neverwinter NightsBioware Premium Modules. I changed the location of it to Neverwinter NightsPremium Modules. It installed perfectly.

               you would do better to not post in COMPLETE CAPS (or near complete caps) thats considered to be rude and
to answer your question you could always buy the game legally instead of using a torrent. I'm assuming its
torrented because that's one of the most common ways torrents distribute games.

2.German patch for 1.68 for plain NWN
3.French patch for 1.68 for plain NWN

And what is the Linux client files? is it needed???
               
               

               
            

[Legacy_Ryuhi2000]

               Depends which version of the game you installed, Gold, Platinium, and Diamond all install both offical expansion packs.

For what version of the pdater to use pick the one for the country your in.

The Linux client files are only needed if you have linux installed and want to use that to play nwn otherwise you dont need them.
