I cannot log in at all now.

Post by Meow2000 » Fri Aug 18, 2017 7:03 am

This cd key is used by the server. Over and over again. I waited for 15 minutes, it logs me in for a second into the entry thing and kicks me out i tried that thing from desktop and it did the same thing. Both servers any characters. I tried every trick that was written in the bug forums thing but did not work.

Hmm...

I am going to PM you. When we find a solution, post it to your thread so it helps someone else

Or if we don't maybe someone smarter than me can help

Make sure you arn't using a bunch of Haks or Overrides from other servers.

You say, "This cd key is used by the server." Does that mean you're getting a message saying your CD key is in use?

If you own the game through GoG, did you remember to change the CD-key from the default one that comes with the download? Because that CD key is the same for everyone and you need to follow the instructions on their support site to generate a new unique key otherwise you'll run into problems not being able to play.

Now if you buy it, it just lists your CD key on your products page, no more contacting support.

But you still have to change it yourself, and then change the keys back to the ones 'everyone' has if you want to play any of the SP content with the game.

Do you know what your public cd-key is?

Is it: Q7RREKF3

That is the GoG one. Perhaps it got reset back to this one at some point.

Funny thing is I just logged in with a character on the surface server but it wont let me in with another character on the other server. I am actually logged in now... but it wont let me choose the other character. ARRGHH ! How do I check my cd key ?

Go to your NWN main directory and look for the file "nwncdkey.ini". The private CD key is listed in that file, and you'll have to follow the instructions given by Xerah's link above in order to determine the public CD key.

I tried that command in the script thing inside the game but it did not work there is a manual example to obtain the public cd key at the bottom of that reading letter thing. QVRPTFJF ???

That script is only something that works inside of NWScript, you can't run it from the console.

You can see the path to get to your file there (I cut off the shot showing the actual CD key) and look at the first one and take ever second letter/number.

Are you saying that it is QVRPTFJF? That is not the GoG key, unless they've since changed it.

Yes that is what it came out when I manually did the public thing on my cd key. There were three of them yes. I did it to the first one of the three since it should be from the original game right ? Not the expansions. I am on arelith for a few months not and I never had a problem like this ever before. I could of logged in any time I wanted to.

all cd-keys have to be unique to you.

Okay so a few things off the top of my head you can try. I am assuming it is not your PC struggling to run the game since NWN is old so most of these focuses on the game itself

1. Run the game in administrator mode.(I have to do this or it won't launch. Because it has to change the computers graphics settings for the old game)

2. Uninstall the game, and reinstall with a fresh copy. If your game has missing or corrupt files it can result in a shut down.

3. Make sure the CD key you are using is not the GOG generic CD key. If it is Gogs website tells you how to get a new CD key

4.Make sure your firewall or other security service is not blocking the game.

If you have questions or need further details on one of the options let me know
These are some of the options I had Pm'd Meow to try. At this point I really am suspecting the CD key is the generic GOG CD key. It's likely that you just got lucky for a few months, that no one else logged in with a GOG CD key.

That might also explain why you can only log in on one server and not the other, and might also be the reason for missing experience or other weird glitches.

https://support.gog.com/hc/en-us/articl ... ts-Diamond

Should be the link to request a CD key from GOG if it is in fact a game from them

Seems like it might be something with the router.
Otherwise: Try this. There's a file in your NWN folder called "nwnplayer". Under Profile, there is something called called "Client port" Change the last number there. It might help. Then save the file and restart.
