I. Getting a Copy of NWN 2
II. Client Extension
III. Patches
GOG.com has the entire Neverwinter Nights 2 collection for $20. This comes with the original Neverwinter Nights 2, as well as the three expansions: Mask of the Betrayer, Storm of Zehir, and Mysteries of Westgate.
II. Client Extension
Gamespy; however, no longer hosts the listings for NWN 2 servers. For that, you'll need to download Skywing's Client Extension. The extension also fixes various bugs with the client - making it a must have for NWN 2, really.
III. Patches
- Navigate to the NWN2_gold_plus_Zehir folder.
- Download all the files within that folder
- Unzip all the .zip files into your C:\Program Files\Atari\Neverwinter Nights 2\ folder.
- Disconnect your Internet connection. This will keep the auto-update tool from looking for the patch process online, failing to find it, and deleting the files you just copied.
- Start the Neverwinter Nights 2 Update Tool, which should begin the update process
- Launch the game normally.
If you need to add patches to an older copy of NWN 2, go to this link: ftp://ftp.atari.com/patches/nwn2And follow these steps:
If the Neverwinter Nights 2 Update Tool doesn’t work, try the nwnupdate.exe file in your Neverwinter Nights 2 directory. I hope that helps!
