It is ok to run the autoupdater and patch up to this interim patch.
This is not a "full-blown" patch. But it should streamline your install process.
Basically, now you will be able to install NWN2, then install MoTB, then patch.
Remember: NWN2 -> MoTB -> Patch.

What about if we've installed every patch (as they became available) up to 1.10, then installed MoTB (today), then the dialog hotfix. Do we need to install this?

I don't think it matters.
I have been out of the office today, so I will get a better answer for tomorrow.

Is version of 1116 on NWN Vault OK?

Game-breaking bug:
Running the new patch (1116).
Fresh install of NWN2 + patch 110 + MotB + 1116.
Ran Dedicated Server Creator--wiped old server folder structure except for module and vault.
Incidentally DSC doesn't copy MotB modules to the target location--a minor bug in comparison.
No HAKs--no overrides--no custom UI--no custom TLKs--nothing.
Load up a level 10 completely mundane, non-hacked drow wizard from my servervault.
Give the character 5 levels of experience.
During level ups I pick a few of the new MotB spells
I proceed to finish.
***However none of the new MotB spells ever commit to the spellbook.***
So a complete waste of five level ups.

FIX:
Dedicated Server Creator neglected to copy the "_X1" versions of the 4 standard NWN2 2DA data files.
Spellbook problem solved. However that character was cheated of some spells (which she can buy from scrolls luckily). |

This is a huge step in the right direction. Thank you, Obsidian.

What has been fixed/added in this patch? I don't think that I saw a changelog for this patch in my nwn2 directory.
The strange thing is that I had nwn2 v1.06 install which I patched to 1.10 than install MotB. After the installation of the expansion, the autopatcher didn't find anything new so my game was at 1.10.1115.
Later last night, I performed a clean install of nwn2 (unpatched), installed MotB than ran the autopatcher. That time, it downloaded/installed the .1116 patch. |

It sounds like the only reason for .1116 was to make it so that people could install the patch AFTER installing MOTB. With .1115 you had to install the 1.10 patch BEFORE installing MOTB, then install the hotfix.
Other than that I believe they are the same patch. So, if you had the .1115 version and had installed it in the correct order, i.e. before installing MOTB, then there was no reason to go to patch .1116.

So some players are on 1115 and some players are on 1116? How are we going to join multiplayer servers if 50% of the players are having version mismatch?
Or everyone is updating to 1116?Edited By EgasKrad on 10/12/07 01:16 |

You guys figuring out yet that server client version comparison has to be a range yet?
There is no reason why 1115 and 1116 should be incompatible except for inflexible code.
Glad you fixed the bug where you invalidated the cd-keys of your loyal customers. Thank you.
And I know that on NWN2 the difference between 1115 and 1116 is zilch, but I have players locked out and now I have to take the server down and upgrade so you can increment the version number... great. Since there is no reasonable way for these people to undo their patches.
And my servers crashing left and right, players telling me they are crashing it when leveling when using MotB as a client. Nice compatibility release.
You guys are killing me.
Love it all great work... but a bit more qa and smoother please.
Sorry just a frustrated and hammered server admin,
- Bar

If we downloaded the patch when it was declared buggy, due to the registration key screw up, but fixed that ourselves, do we still need to download this patch? Edited By FWTrump on 10/12/07 04:53 |

So how big's this patch? MOTB isn't released in Australia until October 24 and I'm thinking i'll hold off any more patching until I get the expansion installed. |
