Some other entrance from Jinxy's papernotes'a'jinxyday (commonly known as personal diary):
Helloooooooo! Jinxy agaaaaaain! Long time I wrote not in you, huh?
Well... here, have some tint! *there is a small but noticeable splash
of tint on the paper*
Hear what, this Melody fella I met by a camping fire sang really nice! No really, I mean it. I even used my clapattacus to applaud in the end! It broke though... I must make a new and better one... I wonder if I...?... No, no that would not make sen... s'or could it? Perhaps by twistin... nah, wouldn't do.
Ah and I must remember to check the Cailomels at Wayfare... Melody told they might want some of my Craftigations! What'ya know?! Nothing! You're just a brainless diary! *there is the draw of a diary with a brain inside, though the brain has a big X on top of it*
One day... one day... I will make you liiiiiiive! Then we can craftigate together!

If you reach to have frequent crash issues with the ATI it once fixed for me (had a Radeon 4870, now 5870 doesn't need it) I used a library called atioglxx.dll
and worked good.

try rename your nwnmain.exe to nwmain.exe (you can always rename it back).
If you installed bahamut you might have to do something else, perhaps, dunno.

well I shouldn't be the one putting that guide up really... I managed to make it go on my comp., others did on theirs. My best advice is (cause it's what worked for me): - Remove NWShader folder
- Remove .dll files associated with the NWShader
--- - Download Chronepsis 2.2.3 (NOT the patch).
- Put all files and folders into your NWN folder!
- Go to \\Windows\\System32 for 32bit OS, copy opengl32.dll to your desktop, rename it to hookgl32.dll and move it to your NWN folder. If a "replace" comes up, replace. For 64bit OS do the same but at \\Windows\\SysWOW64.
- (if you're not in XP) Go to NWShader and set compatibility mode for the NWShader_GUI.exe to XP SP3 and to run as admin.
- Launch the NWShader_GUI.exe and check if there are no warnings or errors related to "the config file". If there are... bad luck. Try opening on notepad the file nwshader.xml in the same folder and, if empty, fill it with the code I've put bellow.
This is not sure to work for all (some NVIDIA won't do apparently).

Some other entrance from Jinxy's papernotes'a'jinxyday (commonly known as personal diary):
Today something really big was about to happen in Hlint when I was just passing by... was just getting silk from the Silkwood nearby. Oh well...
A respectable little army was present... I knew that wasn't for me. But soon I understood there was an imminent attack from the Dragon cult! Can you imagine that?! No you can't.
Anyway, put my brains to work and immediately after I...:
- Lightened rocks and trees in the road Conner told me people of Hlint would be evacuated through so it went smooth and nobody got lost. *check sign*
- Helped the evacuation speed by summoning a Celestial Dog and my loyal Jinx panther to give support to elderly ones, as well strengthening them. Did what I could! *check sign*
- Went back to Hlint to make sure nobody was left behind! *check sign*
- Robbed as much food as I could from the kitchen... hahaha not for me, for the evacuated people you silly! Got you there! Hahaha *check sign*
- Delivered the food to the caretakers at the evacuation site! Alright... I took a nibble from a piece of bread. So what? *check sign*
- Went with some other local Gnomes to get water to a nearby stream to keep the evacuated freshened and light! *check sign*
- As a note came from Hlint saying the danger passed, for now, I hasted back and helped the badly wounded with my best healing kits, craftigations and magications (hey! just invented that word!) *check sign*
- With help from battle survivors, the wounded were carried out of Hlint to a nearby, more safe, place. *check sign*
- Went back to the evacuation site, very hasted, searching for people that could do as acceptable healers and got myself a buffet of Toranites and Lucindites and Whateverites! Hahahah *check sign*
- Well did what I could now back to Silkwood! Oh! That rhymed! *check sign*
*then drawn with some expertise the contour of a Drach warrior's face, one she saw dead in the farm fields of Hlint. The eyes were substituted with big red "X"s* [/LIST] [/I]

That happened to me with the new patch for Chronepsis on.
Just put the patch away (and related files) and use "pure" Chronepsis.
Should do.
Ah and make sure your nwshader.xml file in the NWN\\NWShader folder is not 0 KB.
If that file is empty the shader has no config and NWN wont start.

Some other entrance from Jinxy's papernotes'a'jinxyday (commonly known as personal diary):
Just a little note... can you believe this Paladin Ian Ashalley declined my help when I so promptly said I would myself fix his helmet? And he said he didn't know much but he had to learn... so as I said before... I offered to teach him! Still nothing...
I even showed him the craftability I have on cragfitations using my helmet as example!
Petty...

I have both NWShader and NWNCQ on.
NWNCQ was linear to install. NWShader required a few hits here and there (the hookgl32 thing, compatibility xp sp3 for the GUI to create/update nwshader.xml file and then just make it right (default is very slow unblurring).

EDIT: btw since the focusinterval is set for 2 seconds whenever I change zoom distance it will look blurred and then during two seconds it focuses. This gives a nice perspective effect imo  of course I don't play with NWN annoying fog -_-

Hmm then I have some hak files that look like this "~filename.hak" I have no clue where I got them.

« on: December 03, 2010, 11:48:40 am »
Since I don't know the mechanics of how hak packs can be used and the override files do contain for instance a .bat file I had no clue if the ~ .hak files were needed or not.
Still they occupy little space and perhaps other servers might use them

I'm using the latest version excluding the newest patch (so using Chronepsis 2.3 or whatever that is xD). Works good! I'm on w7 64x OS. Just had to copy opengl32.dll from \\wowsys64, rename the copy to hookgl32.dll and put it on the NWN folder along with all the other NWShader related libraries. Atm I only use depthofield and bloom shaders which came on by default (I just took some of the blur away). Does anyone use a configuration that looks better then the default? I have no/little knowledge on what Shaders do what and which are compatible with what. Btw... does anyone know if the Shaders order counts? They have a reordering interface but no documentation on such. Any clue? And definitly NWNCQ is the hit ^^ tried installing the same thing and made my NWN folder go boom... -.- What's your system? There are some incompatibilities with some NVIDIA cards as far as I understood. Did you get hookgl32.dll setup correctly? If you're not on XP SP3 did you set compatibility for such on the NWShader GUI? Apparently it wouldn't access the XML config file for me without compatibility and admin rights, so if that nwshader.xml file is 0 KB (empty) you won't even be able to start NWN I think. If you have no way on making the NWShader GUI to run I can PM my config file, they should look the same. NWNCQ is pretty simple to install right? Hak files to hak folder, rest goes to override if I remember correctly.

Interesting thread ^^ Well I guess this is being in comparison with only RP servers right? -_-' I have played (and still play), on a certain NWN action server for now over 9 years (and I'm 22 yo so you can see how deep it goes). The server is simply amazing although it faced the action servers problem which is "you only grow upwards" and not "shift sides" like you do in RP. Still the server as of late had a media of 10-20 players online daily. But it has lacked of backend support... and that is something that players don't see but feel. When the world has no big changes for long and routines become more and more heavy to follow, even if partying with really great folks, in the limit... it dies. This lack of backend - cause any player with certain characteristics can be a frontend GMs... but few can be backend GMs... right? - is something I fear to be a very delicate issue that as far as I know Layo has not faced at all! So keep it up and don't loose those barricades! BUT even more important then that... like any product in any market there is a life cycle... and NWN1 in my opinion is at a very extended decline phase. Newer generations (and I know this looking to all the friends I have that like games in general) search for better graphics... better game dynamics... and above all... to play the games that "are the fashion" so to speak. So they can be able to talk at school/university/friends/wtv about the recent game plays. I know lot of players who simply left NWN and not they've traded it for similar newer games... they just grew out of it... perhaps now they play PES/FIFA, or have entered Aion, WoW, Lineage, whatever those are... perhaps they don't play computer games anymore and just want to watch movies. And I haven't seen any charts but my feeling, and of course this is an obvious, indeed sad, tendency, NWN players will not increase, only decrease. Perhaps Layo as is can still assimilate players from other dieing servers, like a giant eating small companies in the brink of extinction... but even the giant will die of age. And for this... I give by best luck wishes to the Layo MMO which, if it maintains Layo spirit, will be a great success on holding to players. And I might just drop here my opinion... although Layo was made with some professionalism... that will not guarantee AT ALL (just my feeling!) that these players will stick around the same producers just cause they made a new game. If the learning curve fails... if the environment feels different/unfamiliar... if the very "common plebe" disperses... it might easily fail - from keeping the old ones, not from attracting new folks . For instance, and I'll be blunt - do remove the post if this is inappropriate O.o - I gave just a little glimpse on the Rune game, out of mere curiosity, and soon lost the appetite to see more. Perhaps I lost an opportunity for a great experience... perhaps I didn't... I knew the people who made it made a great Job with Layo... but that doesn't sell the fish (at least for me ). And sincerely, wish all this team the best of success.

Some other entrance from Jinxy's papernotes'a'jinxyday (commonly known as personal diary):
Bu! Hahahaha it's me again! Did I scare you? Of course not... I didn't manage to put a mechanical brain on you yet. One day I will...
I was thinking, which I do often, quite often actually, about thinking, which is something, again, I often do. So I was thinking, which I do often, and I thought, which, for past recognition, thinking is not only something I do often as I always did it often in every present that became past, which by the way is a thought in it self, not detached from thinking but detached from, maybe, all other thoughts, except the thought I have on thinking, which I do often, over this peace of thought, again something I think, which I do often, just now. Right? Right. Yes? Yes.
So as I was saying I was doing that, that I do oft... oh alright alright I'll quit it which is something I don't do oft... fine! Whatever...
Some people find annoying that we, Gnomes, are annoying. But we're not really! People find annoying that they are not as fast thinking, as I do often, as Gnomes typically are! Of course we have some lazy ones, which I... fine whatever have it your way.
Anyhow I've decided to be more careful with people since the other day I did offend someone whomever however whatever peasant in Center... and was instantly accused that such came from the fact that I talked annoyingly too much. Do I? You think? Really? Do I make a lot of questions? Is a lot of questions quantifiable? What is a lot? What is a little? Is a lot of little a lot? Or is little of a lot only a little? Huh? Huh? HUH?!
Well... as I said... I'll be more careful... I'll try to still be myself, OF COURSE, but take into consideration that other people might get hurt from speaking a lot. Perhaps too direct... perhaps too front facing... like "YOU'RE UGLY!". Although if different... then I'll be lying... but it's for a good cause... yes I guess it is.
What matters is that all are happy right? If not... where's the fun!?!?!?! Oh right you can't answer... I still didn't make that brain...
Bye!

Some other entrance from Jinxy's papernotes'a'jinxyday (commonly known as personal diary):
Today I saw, do not abide,
A cruel scene right of the tide,
Where a thug as bug shrug by the coast
Dead to the sun... forgotten toast.
The fellow friends fled far from him...
The wind whispering whomever's whim...
The bay brought, but brutal be,
The simple sadistic so severe sea.
He was shome shleepy shlummy shlug!
Who brlought thlen watler tlo thle thrloat...
Glurp blurp curp... woke up the thug!
He was sailing... without a boat.
And due to rum from early feast...
He would not be - spared by the Mist...
But then such jinxy luck he had...
- Sorry Mist... please don't be mad... -
I fixed my sleeves and moved the air!
Tamed the waves and didn't care!
Whomever that poor shlummy was!
So I saved him for a good cause!...
... whatever that was...
HEY LOOK I RHYMED! THIS IS A NEW CRAFTIGATION! GOOD! YES? YES!
*among the few present in the Crafting Hall when Jinxy had this momentary glimpse of poetry, many were indeed the raised eyebrow, bitten lips, crazy eyes, waving foreheads, sustaining laugh faces as she declaimed it... over and over and over over and over over and over over and over over and over over and over over...*
*and over and over... and over!*

The other day I was going over arranging my corner in the Crafting Halls of Center. The local Miss Caretaker is an Angel and allows me to stay here over night... craft until late ours... sleep by the fireforge holding my craftigations and keeping myself warm half inserted in a cougar bag made by my own hands...
One day, when I get my personal Crafting House... I will allow the nice homeless craftigators to stay over... won't have room for all of course... but at least those... give them a chance! They might be as smart as me! Oh that rhymed! Must be true... so toodeloo!!!

Craftigations. Today was I searching through some notes of my thoughts in the pouch that is behind the pouch with the little twist on the left upper corner you know, right? The one that holds that thing I told of before and that is... yap, that.
And I was thinking... how many people pass over their lifes without knowing the beauty of crafting? It's useful! It's fun! It's life! Perhaps they were not lucky and nobody told them about it...
Perhaps I should tell people about it...
Think I will yes. Yes? Yes. I will. I will tell them and I will teach them if needed to. I'll loose some time but it's for a very good purpose! They will definitly live better if they're able to use their creativity.

Some other entrance from Jinxy's papernotes'a'jinxyday (commonly known as personal diary):
Was I by Lake Splendor when this fella man was being attacked by a Cougar right behind a hill. Ferocious fight... sort of even... what are the odds?! A Cougar? Heh. Anyway of course I went for his aid and he avoided further injuries... such as being a dinner... or lunch... what time was it? Afternoon. Yes? Yes.
After some talk it appeared to be that his name was Robb. Not Robb this... not Robb that... he was Robb. Sounds good enough to me.
Anyway he was going for clay and sand, probably to the needs of some craftigator of the many I daily see in the crafting halls of Center. But he as well was holding a big armor. Pretty! Shiny... but heavy like my Ox's butt! And that's heavy!
So I gave him two Cougar bags I've just made... these magic bags that can reduce the weight of things... sort of temporarily shrinking them into their inside. Hope he'll use them well and that it will spare him the danger of dragging himself... the armor... the clay... the sand... all the way back to Center. Could be dangerous... and what are two bags after all?
Funny thing was he wanted to repay me! Crazy fella... gifts are not to be paid... are they? No. Yes? No. So I gave them and he was clearly happier... and I guess safer.
His back will last longer and he had strong big backs to carry that big shiny armor.
