ith my gog cd key

[blackirish]

I was told to check here by a friend, I got a cd key for multiplayer from gog, but when I tried to download, it opened in note pad and now will not work, I sent a request to gog to send me another on or the same one and tell me what program I am to open it with, if there is anything you can tell me to try I would greatly appreciate it. My friend said ask funky so I thought I would try, I am looking forward to playing online now that I have a taste for it. thank you.

Welcome to HG. With the gog keys it works like this. First you purchase a copy of nwn from gog. Then you send them an email, that you want to play online and need an indiviual set of keys for the game. They will send you your personal keys over. When you have them it is a set of 3 keys standing for: vanilla nwn and the two expansion packs.

Now go into the folder where you installed nwn and open the file: nwncdkey.ini with e.g. Notepad.

Copy the keys you got send from gog and put them in there, replacing the ones that are in there right now. Save the file and close it. That´s it, and you should be ready to play, unless you have not yet installed the CEP expansion and HG hak files. For more details just look under wiki.hgweb.org/wiki/Getting_Started

For the install part:
- Installed Diamond NWN from GOG. That includes the 1.69 Critical Rebuild. If you use another install, I would run that file after the NWN install (NWN + both expansions). English install.
- Then: Installed CEP 2.3 (Hak into HAK, tlk into tlk). I've downloaded that from Werehound Silverfang (werehound) Signature link
- Then: ARF2 download and Run: dl.hgweb.org/arf/arf2.zip
* Important: Mark option in ARF2 for modified exe and HG enhanced
- Changed in the nwn.ini:
[Display Options]
AllowWindowedMode=1
- Changed in the nwnplayer.ini:
[Game Options]
ClientEntireChatWindowLogging=1
Ingame to activate HGenhanced you have to type ingame: !enhmode (and a green text says that it is activated). It must be done on every character once and persists then.

ok, got 2 sets of cd keys now and have install everything I think I need, and still will not let me play, was able to create a player but tell me my cd key is invalid, anything else I could be doing wrong? thank you for the input so far, I hate being called a newb, when I play nw online been play that for over a year now, but with nwn I truly am a newb lol.

If you got a invalid CD key message you likely didn't copy/paste the new cd keys properly...check to make sure they're correct and in the correct order.

KE.

Thank you all for the info, I now have 3 different sets of keys(lol) and still can not get the game to work, I am taking my computer to corps (the friend that got me into this ) and see if she can figure it out.

thank you all again.

 hope to get it working I really want to play now.

Just in case this is what your nwncdkey.ini should look like. The XXXXX are pices of 5 signs in 7 blocks, which is the same amount as your cd keys have.


;These are Neverwinter Nights CD keys.
;Never give those keys to anybody.
;blablablabla

[CDKEY]
Key1=XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX
Key2=XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX
Key3=XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX


key1 is your neverwinter nights key.
key2 is your 1st expansion pack key: shadows of undrentide
key3 is your 2nd expansion pack key: hordes of the underdark

You HAVE TO keep this order and put your keys in exactly like you see it. If you, what I presume, just copied the gog keys over in one move, you propably have overwritten the KeyX= part, and thus it will not work.
