ATi Catalyst 10.2 + NWN

[rump]

I have submitted a bug report to ATi/AMD, but I am wondering if you (Acaos) are able to fix it since it relates to the hacked nwmain executable. After installing this new driver suite, I am unable to start NWN...here is the Windows error dump:

Faulting application name: nwmain.exe, version: 1.6.9.0, time stamp: 0x486cfadc

Heya RuMp,

I have found on the AMD game forums that this is a general problem with more older games. (So not only Acaos' executable)

There are some work-arounds posted there, which might help for you:

Sweet, thanks!
Now that you mentioned that, I remember doing a similar trick for some other games as well.

ATI has released a new driver set as of March 24th. I'm running windows 7 64 bit and from my end, this problem has been fixed.
