Unable to patch to 1.69
« on: June 12, 2011, 07:18:28 pm »


               I'm trying to install and patch NWN Platinum on my new laptop and I'm struggling to get to patch 1.69

The Auto-update won't go past v1.63 - it just tells me to use the critical rebuild. So I download the massive 325MB of the HotU Critical Rebuild and try to update, but it just says that this patch cannot be used on the current version of NWN.

I've searched high and low and can't seem to find any other threads that mention this particular problem.

Any help?

               hmm

thought one: try to redownload the patch maybe its badly downloaded? (not very likely but give it a shot)

though two: try to download 64,65,66,67,68 critical rebuilds and try to instlal them in particular order first so you will be pdating from 68 to 69

               Is your game still in the same folder you installed it to from the disk?

               what you need to do is install the game from the disk, then run the patch on the disk, and then run the 1.69 patch.

Sorry, Idiot post, I "thought" I was replying to a different thread.

Sorry about that.

               Unless you have the Diamond or Platinum, where a patch exists on the DVD which you need to run, you'll be unable to update at all.

You could try http://nwn.bioware.c...glish.html#crit though and run it manually. If it still does not work, you have to wait until Bioware puts back everything that was taken down from the old legacy site.

FP!
