Keep getting an error when I try to load the join the server

[Cerek]

I've been trying to join the Undermountain server since yesterday. I finally managed to get a new character created, but when I try to play him I get a pop-up error saying

custom talk table "arnaden_cepv2.tlk" missing".

I already have CEP 1.5 and I downloaded the required efu hak pak, but I'm still getting this error. How can this be fixed?

The arnaden_cepv2.tlk file is part of the EfU hak pack. If you've downloaded that one, then you should have the file somewhere on your system.
Being a .tlk file, it should go into your /nwn/tlk folder in order to work. I believe all the other files in the hak pack are .hak files, they go into the .hak folder.

Ok...I moved that file to the tlk folder. Tried to join the server and NOW I got 3 MORE errors.

This time it says I'm missing...

arnaden_basic.hak
arnaden_prime.hak
dwarven_halls.hak

All three files are in the hak folder. Gotta admit this seems like a LOT of unnecessary grief just to join an mp game.

Hmm thats all you need in there and its strange that its not working.

All I can suggest is deleting those hak files and re copying them in there.

[Legolas]

Are they in the NWN/Hak folder, or in a NWN/Hak/Something subfolder? That, too, makes a difference and the files won't work in the case of the latter.

Also, yes, I agree. While the Hak packs offer a good way to add custom content to NWN and they're not impossible to distribute, it can be a real puzzle for the actual player to work out where to put what in order to get it functioning propery.

Thanks for the tip, Legolas. They were in the efu subfolder under Haks. Once I moved them to the main folder, I was finally able to access the server. [img]graemlins/thumbsup.gif[/img]
