Request: Current supported version thread?

Post by Durundal » Sun Jan 14, 2018 3:36 am

Could we have a stickied post saying what game version to update to / when? I'm assuming we don't want to update to the patch just released (v74.8154) just yet, but it'd be nice to know when to click that fancy update button.

Could someone link in an instruction manual for when these happen? Getting the EE to work took me 3 frustrating hours of fiddling to work haha!

I installed NWN:EE on my PC a few days ago with the goal to check out both the beta server and the game and I wasn't given the option not to update to the latest version so I am 'stuck' unable to play on the server.

When are we to expect for the server to be updated to the game's version?

We will post in the main EE announcement thread when we update it.

There's a small back end adjustment we have to make to get the module working with the latest version, hopefully we'll get it done this week.

We tried and failed to update to 8154 just now - looks like a crash in the NWNX parts built alongside 8154. We're following up with the gurus, and will try again when we've got to the bottom of it.

So 8153 for a bit longer folks.

Right when EE was announced I got it and ran it and the Arelith beta server was in the server list. Now when i launch it a month later, there is only 1 active server in the list and it is not Arelith. Would that be because I am not on the correct version or am I doing something wrong?

Yes, sounds like a version issue. You can update in the beamdog client.

So what is the current version for EE arelith?
Or has it been completely updated?

My reason for asking is that I got my company laptop and want to install EE on it. But it would have no use if arelith EE isnt running 8155.

Or can i select a path version to install somewhere?

So i could be wrong but I believe the Arelith EE server is currently still on version 8153. I tried to connect but my version was older than 8153 so I ran the update and now I am at 8155 and Arelith, in the server list, is gray and when clicked says Version 8153 in red. I check the Beamdog forums and poked around a bit and there doesn't seem to be a way to select a patch to install. So, as far as I can tell, if you are on an older version than 8153, there is no way to update to 8153, you will instead get 8155. If you are on 8155, there is no way to downgrade to 8153.

At this point I am just patiently waiting for the server to catch up.

So with the new 8156 patch for EE out could we get a ETA on when we might expect the update for that. I have a new laptop and I am currently running nwnEE 8155 so I cant seem to enter arelith.

It feel like the whole EE beta mod is just abbandond.

Just tried updating to 8156 today, but there were issues I couldn't solve atm. So reverted back to 8153.

No ETA, but I expect we'll be able to update to 8156 soon-ish.

Sadly i still have to wait. Only had time on friday last week to run the update and play. And by that time beamdog has pushed the 8158 build. I swear the gods are against me.
