Where are the NWN patches?
« on: June 15, 2011, 02:27:13 pm »


               I've just installed my copy of NWN and expansions from the Forgotten Realms box set that I bought but I am unable to find the patches to patch the game. I understand that the auto update no longer works, but neither do any of the links to the patch pages. Every link I've found takes me straight to the Bioware home page.

Please could someone post a direct link to the patches. Specifically looking for the 1.69 critical update patch.

My current game version is : 1.59.8037

               It looks like the old bioware boards just got closed down last night,  

Currently there in no place to download the critical rebuild patches.  

Hopefully someone will upload them to the vault.  

Everything is in a stirr right now.

               Damn. I would pick the one day that everything breaks to get all nostalgic and reinstall. '<img'>

I did manage to find a direct link though through another forum that explains how to install CEP.

This works for now :

               The official story is the orig. forums got cracked. Scuttlebut is blaming lulzSec, but after taking down current CIA web sites... Why?
I got an email last night in teh early am telling me that i should change any passwords that are in common with myold bio account. And then like *that* all support whatsoever for nwn vanished like *merica's bill of rights.
I'll prolly get banhammered for this, but screw it i've been at this game for almost a decade and i'm one of like 17 or so people worldwide willing to call DA2 an "Unfortunate accident" and let bygones be bygones. torrent party? If the publisher don't take care of the community, the community take care of themselves, dig?

               The publisher was Atari, and they never "took care of" anything correctly after going into the publishing business, no matter who owned them.  

Most of the patches are readily available, with some few Googles to locate them, and Priestly has apologized for feeling snippy yesterday, claims he will stay on top of the situation . .

               Anyone know if there are any mirror sites for the patches in the meantime? If not, links to the trustworthy patch downloads would be greatly appreciated. I don't trust my own judgement in choosing 3rd party patch sites.

               My hard drive on my laptop was just fried and replaced and have to re-install everything. Great time for the patch to disappear '<img'> worst luck ever.

You rock, Dude!'<img'> I have recently had to reload NWN 3 different times from finding patches on non-Bioware sites. (Always fun to see 'Billybob has logged on as a player' when you are playing single player. Screw all the other available patches... always better to get it from the source! (This includes the NWN Vault... the last patch I got from one of the Hall of Fame modules... and that is where my Billy bob came from)

               argh, I've got this problem with re-installing NWN. After installing and I try to play it just says to place nwn hordes of the underdark play disk. I've tried it with all 3 disks that I have (original play disk, shadows and hordes) but it won't run
