Hi all,

Recently I bought NWN2 for a good RPG to play with me and my mates. I bought a copy and installed it on 3 seperate PC's and got the cdkey in use yadda yadda yadda error. Fair enough, I went and bought another 2 copies of the game with keys etc from ebgames to play (fully uninstalled the game and reinstalled with new keys).

I then ran the autoupdater on my PC, which updated me to the latest version of NWN2. I also told my buds to run this autoupdater on their PC's to bring the game up to the latest version. This is where my trouble is.

Basically, neither one of them can update at all, it updates to the SoZ updater, and then says that they are at the latest version of 1.04 (or something) and stops the update. We spent 3 hours on it last week trying to get it to autoupdate, no dice.

What the issue seems to be is that in the autoupdate window:

Why is there a [ in where the latest game version is? That doesnt look right to me. Its like the autoupdater cant parse the update info.

I'm no techie, but buying three copies and spending hours on it means you get my support. Come on, boffins!

That's the latest patch, you are up to date it look like at least that is the version I have going. ???

1.04 is the auto patch version

[Humodour]

The auto-updater is the worst part of the game.

Which is almost a good thing if you think about it really hard.

[Deadly_Nightshade]

I always update the files myself, without the auto-patcher. It's much faster and less error prone.

Then I'll go against the stream and say that I have never, ever had any problems updating through the autopatcher.

As for the OP, yes, it looks like you're up to date.

Funnily enough, I thought the autopatcher was discontinued because it always tells me it can't connect.
