Hi guys. I just discovered this today. I love the Planescape setting and I've recently purchased NWN2 from GOG.
However now that the multiplayer servers are down, I am unable to click on multiplayer and start the download, as per instructions under the new player section. I've also tried another link that someone posted to download the client, which basically leads to gibberish and I'm not tech savvy enough to figure out what to do.
Could someone please give me current instructions on how to download whatever I need to to be able to connect. Thank you.
New Player Issues With Downloading Client

Hey vheart,
welcome to the server!
You should do the following:
1) Log into NWN2
2) Click on Multiplayer, give yourself a Login nickname and a (now useless) password
3) Proceed to click on Direct Connect, and write in the Server ID space scod.game-server.cc no password required (leave the second space blank)
4) At this point, the server will be found and you'll start the content download. It's a very big module, with lots of areas, custom classes, feats and what-have-you, so it might take a while :)
In case you have issues with point 4), you should check first and foremost your HD space. If you have enough, then follow what Mimi said in this thread (and do it after exiting NWN2 completely):

It helped me too :).
Have fun, and see you online!

Omg thank you so so much!!! It's downloading now. I am so excited. I'll be playing this before even playing nwn2 itself. I mean Forgotten Realms is cool but Planescape is the best ever!! I also see psion is a class. I love psionics! This is gonna be so good!! Hope to see you guys online soon.

Oh you're in for a disappointment if you're new to NWN2! :lol: Alright I'm being a little unfair for game I've put thousands of hours into, but you'll come to notice that it has certainly room for improvement and is a little dated. Luckily its best feature is to allow making own servers with an autonomy and customization, which makes it one of the best of its kind.
Welcome to the server by the way!
As Melmoth said, feel free to ask when you get any questions.

Thank you. I've played NWN1 so I kinda know what to expect. Plus Baldurs Gate 2 is one of my favourite games of all time and graphics aren't my top priority when it comes to gaming. Plus I love Planescape so much I'll gobble up anything.
I seem to have run into a snag with the downloads. I'm up to the music and maps part and it's giving me an error saying "unable to download ps_area_outlands-caves.trx from any supplied location. Contact server administrator".
Any clues on what I should do?

Yeah the auto-downloader is a tad borked. This post has the details:http://z13.invisionfree.com/nwn2planesc ... p=40024679

That's the problem I described in my email.
Check the thread :).
Basically, you'll have to open your NWN2 documents and copy the module in the appropriate directory while being logged off NWN2 itself. Easy and quick, and then you're basically ready (small additional download with the newest additions).

Even more links then! That should be under the 'music'.
I guess I'm going to have to make a new compilation thread with instructions in near future.
