NWServer Win7 64-bit?
« on: May 11, 2011, 07:10:10 am »


               I guess this is the correct section for this question.
Does anyone successfully ran a NWN server (online) on Windows 7 64 bits?
Im currently running a PW on Win7 32 bits without problems, but I wanted to know if there's any problem with the 64bit windows version, I want to upgrade to be able to have more RAM, but I want to be sure that I will be able to keep my server running (without any VM or stuff like that).

Thanks

               No problems here with W7-64 version... working fine for around 13 months.

               Yeah no problems running win7 64 bit professional here.  Also managed to make Ubuntu 10.04 64 bit work, but that took a little more doing.

               I've done a clean instalation of win7 Ultimate 64bit, the server runs fine, but if I log in as DM, once I click "play", NWServer crashes. This didn't ever happened on win 7 Ultimate SP 1 32bit.

Any idea?

               Are you using haks in the module you are loading?  Do you have more than 16,184 resources attached to your module?

               I have haks and about 7000 resources on the module. But I guess its working fine right now, I put the nwserver to run in compatibility mode for Win XP SP 3 and for now it's running fine '<img'>

               Ooops my bad.  I suppose I should start with basics first rather than go to advanced problems.  Yes running NWN under win 7 the suggestion is to run as administrator and with win xp sp 3 compatibility mode.
