Haks help please?

[Marflar]

Hello everyone, I recently tried to get into one of the servers and was told that I need the following haks:

cep2_add_skies.hak
cep2_add_loads.hak
cep2_add_rules.hak

Could anyone please give me a link to where I can find these please so that I may play?

I checked that out but wasn't sure what I was supposed to get from it?

[Marflar]

I've already got cep 2.3 and everything from it, it's just those 3 haks.

[Marflar]

Could someone just maybe send me the 3 haks via IM or email please?

Do you have Higher Ground Enhanced?

wiki.hgweb.org/wiki/HG_Enhanced

It's not a required download, but does add a LOT, so i'd recommend getting it. Also, one of the download options for HGE is the Higher Ground Updater, which makes keeping up-to-date with CEP update very easy:

"The Higher Ground Updater program allows Windows and Linux users to update HG Enhanced quickly by only downloading changed files. Unzip the below download directly into your Neverwinter Nights folder, then follow the directions for your operating system.

In addition, the Updater will give you the option after the HG Enhanced update is complete to also download any CEP updates. "

I got the updater and it didn't add those haks and I already finished going through with it, unless there's a difference between the standard and GUI updater?

[bort]

So after downloading it, you ran the HGE updater and when prompted you said YES to updating CEP?

(both standard and gui versions should prompt if you'd like to update CEP. there's also a shortcut in my nwn folder to CEP_update which i guess just updates CEP).

i am uploading these 3 haks to my server as we speak, and they should be live 15 minutes from this post.

nwnlogs.tcosta.net/cep2_add_skies.hak
nwnlogs.tcosta.net/cep2_add_loads.hak
nwnlogs.tcosta.net/cep2_add_rules.hak

enjoy.

No links in your post, TJ.

You need to get the full version of CEP 2.3 C from the Vault before running any updater. Because of the poor setup of the CEP's Vault download page, downloaders are likely to pick the original, which is missing vital parts.

So, head to this page:
nwvault.ign.com/View.php?view=Hakpaks.Detail&id=7849

And download the 7zip file named CEP_23_Full_C.7z, and NOT the one named CEP_23_Full.7z just above it. Installing that will give you access to all CEP files that you need - everything more current is available from the CEP updater, which is packaged in our Higher Ground Enhanced updater.

I apologize for the confusion - we're planning to add a very simple how-to page in the near future, since this is a confusing process for all, even those doing reinstalls who've done it before. Please let me know if you need further assistance.

See that's the thing, I've had the full version with the additional haks from 2.3 and stuff for a while now, and well, unless it's on my hard drive (I think it is) then I won't be able to get those haks unless someone gives just them alone to me.

[Marflar]

If someone could just like, give them to me separate via IM or email then I think I'd be good to go, because I already went and ran the HGE updater and the CEP updater for both versions and it keeps telling me I need the same things so.

You may have a corrupt CEP update. I've PMed you direct links to those three files, but you may need to re-download the full CEP. I also PMed you a link to that.

They are links if you copy and paste the urls, not sure why they weren't turned into links by the board though.

It's ok Acaos sent me the links via PM, thanks again sir.
