#Neverwinter nights enhanced edition port forwarding update
I thought at first a windows update but if I had that trouble I'd have expected everyone to have it and that hasn't happened. In general though, I am totally mystified about this, particularly since it didn't always happen, then it started and I don't know why because I don't recall changing anything. Thankyou also for confirming I don't need it. At first I thought it was an update issue but it turned out not to be that, and if it is an issue with the ISP what should I ask them?Īlso I should add that I started Port Forwarding as a possible solution to the problem, as mentioned above it hasn't made any difference anyway. This problem began with my last ISP after the game had been playable for some time.

Thank you for this, but I have to admit I'm not sure what it means, or how to check for proxies, or what difference it could make. You said you are not using anything like that, but maybe there is some kind of proxy from your ISP? Port forwarding is only needed for hosting games where both NAT punching and relays fail. Note that you don't have to do any port forwarding at all for playing on other servers. It makes sense that the server list can be retrieved (since that is over http/tcp and thus more standard).

Historically, this was usually antivirus or anti-scammer software running on windows, that hijacked all network communication and interjected itself to do filtering/rewriting. Did you copy over your Documents/Neverwinter Nights directory to your seconday install? That directory contains your cdkey.ini, which will not be overwritten if it already - this sounds to me like the game cannot communicate with any kind of udp endpoint. What platform(s) did you buy this on? Beamdog? Steam? GOG? Make sure to be logged in to the respective account so the game services can provision with the associated, separate key. please address the following points (in private message if you so choose): Let me try and see about the CD key issue first. Some input from would be cool, and appropriate under the circumstances. There's something up, but I am out of ideas as to what it is. I'm not running any antivirus software on this machine. I have to be honest, I don't believe it's my installation because I played just fine for several months last year using this same computer and install. This is a problem specific to NwN:EE, and it's a new problem. I could try hooking up a router cable, but firstly that's not a viable long-term solution and second, every other thing works fo me via wireless. Now with one particular non-hak server, Direct Connect gives me:ĭirect connect and UDP hole punch failed.Ĭonnecting to any server via Join Internet Game gives the same problem as before: I've checked every entry for NwN in the Firewall check, both private and public. If you still get no joy, then the problem is likely with your specific game install, or your antivirus software if you are running any. Hook you computer straight up to the cable modem/surf board and try to connect again. If still no joy, then without changing the firewall settings you just made, try bypassing your router. Once that's done, try to direct connect to a server that doesn't require haks. Or, just disable the firewall altogether for this test. Make sure NWN:EE is included in your firewall's permitted programs. I'm assuming you're running a Windows OS. Here's a couple of other things you can try if you haven't already. It's extremely frustrating, because I'm not hearing from anyone at Beamdog either (though I'm sure they read these threads) I've just tried again, to log in to Thain (I know you know that one) using the IP numbers and the name, still can't. The IP address in that field is of the computer itself. When you typed in the ip address for port forwarding, did you use your computers' ip address, or your routers' ip address? If you typed in the routers' ip address it won't work.
