Dual Logging Port Settings

[DM_Kim]

This has been spoken about before by Lokey.

Part of our lag problem and a great contributing factor to it is Dual Logging with both computers using the same port.

Here is what you need to do to help us with this:

With NwN turned off. Go to c:\NeverwinterNights\NWN\nwnplayer.ini
That file will open in NotePad just by clicking on it.
When you have it open, scroll down ways until you find Client Port=5120.
This is the default setting and the number that needs to be changed on one of your computers. You can change this number to Client Port=5121 or 5122 or 5123 etc.. so long as it is different from your other computer.
This will not fix all lag issues but will go a very long way in helping with the dual logging issue.

Once you have changed that Client Port number hit "save" under your File tab. Then run NWN as always and enjoy.

By doing this the only time a dual logger should log off is when it's just 1 player using 2 computers and the server is almost full (between 50 and 60) players in game. The reason for logging one off is just a curtsy to the server and opening up a player slot up for someone else to enjoy our home.

Thanks for helping us out.
