Missing body parts

Post by livingNPC » Tue Dec 05, 2017 8:17 pm

I've not played NWN since getting a brand new PC, but returning to Arelith I noticed that I am having graphical issues.

Started with my cloak being missing, but returning if I transitioned to another area. Also NPC and PC body parts would be randomly missing and random parts. Like a neck here and a thigh there. Sometimes all bodies are missing, causing a crash soon after.

How ever, I am not experiencing the same issue with EE.

Currently running with a nvidia 1070 card, with the latest driver. (shiny water is disabled)

Nvidia's newest drivers don't play nicely with NWN, from what I've gathered.

I think they only real way to "fix" it is to roll back the driver to a previous version.
When the going gets tough, the tough hide under the table.

There is something with cloaks and robes that nVidia’s drivers don’t like. I just zone in and out a couple of times and it’s until they are back. Once they are restored it usually stays that way for me.

On the bright side, with NWN Enhanced Edition on the way, that problem will likely solve itself for you soon(ish).

I've been experiencing the same problem but with other players. I'll just see their arms, legs and head but not the body.

The issue is with any cloth animation in my experience. Anything that "flows" with "wind" or movement. The only noticeable fix for this is to roll back your drivers to the May release.

My Nvidia Driver lags with NWN and I don't even try to play long enough to replicate missing body parts. I have to use my Integrated Graphics card for NWN to even play it.

Can't wait for EE!

It also bugs out graphic of horses.

On top of that if you put item for example into forge, you may not see it (see it empty).

If i install them, will that change anything for my other games?

EDIT: Do they work for windows 7-64 bit?

It's an older driver so you will have pre 10/28/17 performance.

Should work for 7
