EE on Steam: Window mode & Portraits

Post by Atlantahammy » Sun Mar 11, 2018 10:11 am

So the biggest question of them all, how do we get EE to run in window mode through steam? I really need to know how..

Also how will we install portraits through here?

Like most things, just pop ye olde ALT+ENTER to put something into windowed mode.

Then you can change the resolution in the video options to put it to whatever size you want.
Thankfully this team is no longer being used.

My bigger worry is that EE is still TBA on Steam.

They're a bit slow on updating the release date there on Steamworks.

Sweet, that works.

Now what about custom portraits? I know a lot of Arelith uses them, heck I even do.

There should be a portraits folder in your install directory. If not, make one. Then, you can dump image files in there, and use the convertportrait console command.

  • Place the jpeg file (e.g. my_pic.jpg) in the portraits subdirectory of where Neverwinter Nights is installed (typically C:\NeverwinterNights\NWN\portraits\).
  • Start Neverwinter Nights, then start (or load) a game.
  • Enter the console command ConvertPortrait followed by the name of the image without the extension (e.g. ConvertPortrait my_pic).

I mean for steam, and EE, nothing i do seems to make them appear, the dictionary is also very different.
