Trouble after setting up dual box

[wollstonecraft]

Hello,

I recently re-established my second account and got the dual box running (as per hackenslay's instructions).
The set up works fine in that both instances can log onto the server and run simultaneously, the trouble is that my characters are invisible.

If anyone can provide some advice here, it'll be appreciated.

Try to turn off environmental mapping in the advance video options (and maybe other settings) and see if that helps.
Update the video driver.

That invisibility is a known bug. You probably used the "nwmain-169-hg.exe" file directly to start the game. Take the Original "nwnmain.exe" and rename it to e.g. "ORIGINALnwnmain.exe" and rename the enhanced one to "nwnmain.exe". Now it should run normal again.

Thanks. That solved the invisibility issue.
I'm running NWN from the batch file which connects me through Gamespy. In order to get to HG though, I have to enter the direct connect address each time I log-in.
Is there a better way to get to the HG servers? Can I bypass Gamespy somehow?

ARF2 can directly connect you. I use the HGX addon made by vichya to connect and it bypasses the master server authentication as well. You find it under highergroundpoa.proboards.com/thread/20473/higher-ground-extender

I've made shortcut to the exe file for every single server on my desktop. They have as destination something like (this is for server 111):

"C:\Neverwinter Nights\nwmain.exe" +connect 209.99.103.44:5121
