I found what I think is a bug on the 4th level of the DoA. When your at the 4th floor portal room (not the Asmo one), if I go through the south door and then the east door the game crashes. This has happened 5 times in a row. It's not random like all of the other crashes that I've had with NWN, which makes me think that it might have something to do with the coding for the module

The Asmo bug is really hard to not exploit.

ACK!

ACK!

[Jamski]

Well, looks like I'll have to get my arse in gear and actually fix these things...

Were is the key for the level 4 teleporter?

ACK!

[Jamski]

Locked in a box somewhere. Ha!

The teleporters were really there as a testing tool, and my test character has all the keys on a little keyring.

Use the stairs like a man

well, I've now made it to Apolyton town!!!!

and the first guy that I saw was some damned ugly potion pusher named Centrifuge

Good Stuff Gotta Run, but...

I'll post more later about the trek there from level 4...

[Jamski]

YAY! Now the real game begins.

/me rubs his hands together evilly*

You wanted to be the one selling drugs to the kids though, right?

I'm trying to get the sound on NWN to work right now.

I reinstalled and updated everything.

But NWN doesn't seem to work right on my new Audigy 2 ZS card with 5.1 speaker system. Everything seems to work right except for the front speaker. I can barely hear anything out of it. Combat sounds really weak that way. I tried messing with all the sound settings.

I'm going to try drivers again. One thing weird I'm not sure of. In game the sound is set for 5.1 speakers, but the .ini file show 4 speakers. I'm not sure if I should manually change that.

[Jamski]

Change the .ini file. I'm always doing that with games to get them to work. If it doesn't work, change it back.

If the .ini shows 4 speakers, that's probably why you're only getting sound from 4 speakers. Seems logical to me.

[Dis]

you would think it would be logical.

But apparantly the ini is 1 level below what it shows in game.

Because now I have it set for 2 speakers, but it shows 0 speakers in the ini file.

I can't get the 5.1 speakers to work properly. But it does work properly when I have the speakers set to 2. I'm not sure if I'm getting the full surround sound effects though. But at least I can hear when I swing my axe.

I did have a similar problem with Morrowind. But updating my drivers took care of the problem. Both Morrowind and KOTOR work properly.

I may post in the tech support over at the bioware forums. just haven't gotten around to it yet.

One thing I'm not clear on and the manual doesn't explain is what all the options in the sound options tab do. 3d/2d bias? And what about the other slider next to it? What does all that crap do?

I may just stick with the 2 speaker sound setup. It sounds decent I suppose. I'm not sure how to test if the surround sound is working properly. Although I wouldn't think it is, not if the game is only sending 2 channels worth of audio.

[Jamski]

I phoned Bioware direct before and they were very helpful. Its worth a try...

Perhaps.

Got SoU, and as promised, started playing the Dungeon of Apolyton as a human (combat-oriented) Cleric. I'm at Apolyton Town right now.

One comment: You probably should put Vlad and the cat/Mrs. Jamski in different factions. Otherwise, there's no way to progress further. I learned this the hard way.
