For those of you still having trouble getting back in-here's what I had to do. I've three disadvantages to start with...using Vista O.S.-NVidia GeForce 8800GTX graphics cards-and "Diamond Edition" NWN. Get the latest driver from NVidia-7.15. Uninstall the game and reinstall. Do the "Critical Rebuild" 1.68 from Bioware website. Then upgrade to 1.69 using the "Upgrade" box in start window of the game, as it should work now. If you have troubles around this point-right click on NWN desktop icon and "run as administrator". Reload your Layo haks and you should be fine. Remember to "run as administrator" any time it wont launch. Good luck-Goldy

It seems I'm offline for a while myself. I've always had problems with "Diamond Edition"-black screen, etc. and now with the update it wont launch from the Play menu. There's a conflict with the NVidia 8800 series graphics cards (of which I have two) which can't seem to get resolved. Huge thread in Bioware Forums on it and NVidia doesn't seem to care a lot. I've no idea how I got the game to work after last update getting a black screen. It just started working after "blind clicking" for a while through the black options screen. Hope to see you all again soon. Goldy

Seems I'm the latest to get dropped. Timed out in the Rift *sigh*. Can't get onto either Layo server, and having trouble with some of the Forums functions also. Oh well-guess I'll try again tomorrow.

NWN loves low numbers is a saying that goes way back. It's amazing how fast we forget our running successes, and remember, etched into your minds, our running failures. Been there-done that.

I had the same problem with the black screen when I came back a while ago. Had to blind-click with the NWN cursor hand to get the screen up for a while. Then it just went away-*scratches his head*. I play "Diamond Edition" if that's the reason?

There was a time, long, long ago when something as precious as a lion bag was hard to get because only a few could craft it. Now, though, there are many who have them and can even make them for themselves. It is now only the most rare of items that demand a high price, especially those which need the hardest of materials to acquire. Supply has overstripped demand in most things these days.

To save myself from hours of mindless gathering and crafting I will offer one raw emerald for the pair of exceptional diamond cats rings.

After seeing the devastation first hand-Goldy packs a bag with tools and heads off to gather relief supplies for refugees and the rebuilding of the town. Thinking to himself "They're going to need some fine linen bandages for the more seriously injured, some strong oak planks, and maybe even a few freshly baked pies to bring some cheer to their hearts. Oh, and a bit of gold to pay the help." "Best drop it at The Foundation so they can get it to whomever be organizing the effort!" Jogging off at his usual pace, he heads out to secure supplies so the homeless can get under shelter as soon as possible.

I must have misunderstood Helmot's and Losthammer's silence to mean "limited to some" instead of "limited to none". *Goldwin sighs deeply* "oh well-thanks for the clarification."

Ahhhh-Lin'da humble as usual. Wonderful job guys putting this together! A story that made sense and one where the pieces actually fit together. The visuals were great. Was nice not to have to use imagination for everything. I usually dont get a big enough block of time to go on quests. Really lucky to be on vacation that week, and the time zone was perfect. Goldy will remember this one for a long time.

The crossroads are indeed destroyed-burned out by a raid from the Peaks and driggles is still missing. This is truely a real threat to all of us if it spreads as far as Dalanthar. Several parties traveling high in those mountains have encountered large parties of ettins led by a powerful giant. The giant stronghold in the tower teems with enemies seemingly ready to foray outside as far as the Lakes plateau and maybe as far as the crossroads, or even Dalanthar! Not long ago a party was saved by an elven spirit that was able to drive the giants back into their stronghold and temporarily ward against their passage. If anyone has knowledge of, or information on who this spirit was please get the word out. An ally of this power could help save us all.

I might be a bit bias on this subject, but IF the composition of the weapon IS changed why couldn't it hold up in dead zones. It would be the "casting" of an enchantment that wouldn't work in such zones. One way of explaining the mechanics of the game rather than having to "pretend" that it doesnt happen much as you have to "pretend" you can't see someone in Greater Sanctuary. I always get that wrong-sheesh!

**Goldwin reads the latest posting on the exotic items auction*. " Ahh-good fer Lillian-always liked her. That amulet will certainly help protect her". *Scratches his head* "Damned if it makes sense to me though-the numbers don't add up right and the rules are a downright riddle. Even went for 5,000 lower then Lillian's bid!" Oh well-there's another one out there somewhere. *Goldwin walks away in search of new adventure*...
