Just a guess, but did you run the NWN updater first before running the HGE updater?

So you installed NWN+sou+hotu, updated NWN, then ran the HGE updater? I think you might need to download and install CEP before running the HGE updater for the first time, though when you have CEP installed HGE updater will offer to update CEP whenever it gets improved.

There's a good one... how do you tell if the CEP has been updated without a revision change... because I had assumed I was up to date, but when runnning HGE update and selecting yes for CEP it just goes off updating like mad... updating what ? is it downloading EVERYTHING all over again?? I could probably download the entire .zip faster...

The HGE updater won't download the whole CEP again, it will only download updated versions of files and new files. That's been my experience anyway, i always say yes to downloading CEP, and it's never taken anywhere near as long as when i've downloaded CEP manually.

Did u run the updater again after downloading 2.3? As Cata says, i'm pretty sure you need to run HGE updater AFTER the CEP install*, not the other way round (wasn't sure which you did from your posts). *Although HGE isn't required to play on HG - CEP alone should be enough to log into HG assuming it is truly the most recent version of CEP. Which file did you download? There are two listed there: CEP_23_Full_C.7z (seems to be the most recent one you can get without using the updater) CEP_23_Full.7z (not the latest version on the vault) If you downloaded CEP_23_Full.7z that could be the problem...?

HGEUpdater does a compare of the file on your system versus the latest one. If their sizes (and possibly hash) do not match, it gets downloaded, otherwise not. So HGEUpdater is much quicker and efficient than full DL every time.
