the stats one is a known issue (at least as far as i know) and people have been banned for it so i would refrain from putting up details on that and from doing it yourself

the fix is easy enough you just take off your items and put them back on and its usually corrected

the movement speed one if its the bug im thinking of is just an icon fail, your actual movement speed doesnt stay increased, though if it really does then you should just bug report it so someone can look into it

Actually this can sometimes go the other way, due to the "fix it" script in place. If you wear several items with Con & HP and swap them around you can find yourself taking damage.

I have seen both happen, the icon and actual speed given. However, it was short lived and likely caused by lag and gone after reboot. I have never seen increased movement at random again though.

If you are playing NWN2 in Windows Seven in windowed mode with the client extension and the task bar is popping up continually screwing with your game window, then install this taskbar eliminator.

I prefer this to messing with the windows settings. It also works on XP.

I personally did it by completely eliminating the gamespy log in screen but I forgot how to do it. It involved editing the XMLs within the documents NWN2 folder's UI/default area.

Wrong thread, buddy. Please send a PM to the DM team with what you've lost etc. etc.

Something strange has happened to me today - my chat/ingame browser font's changed to a fairly basic and somewhat annoying style:

Though i still see the normal font when people type/server msgs pop up when i'm the one typing or using the browser it pops up

Has anyone ever encountered/know how to fix it?

Sooo I was bleeding out, I made the fortitude save, I escaped the monsters with one HP, I went to go rest and heal up...aaand now I'm dead and in the fugue....I don't know what happened, some sort of bug? I scrolled through the combat dialogue but nuthin. ....So...yeah...help? I'd also really love to not lose 800 xp from dying from nothing..

Did you have a spell or anything that boosts your constitution? When you rest that spell is removed, putting you in the negatives for health.

Not sure how common knowledge this is but adding it here anyway,

If you're tired of typing /mpredict each time you start the game from the client, create a .txt document (Notepad) in your My Documents directory and name the document autocmds. Inside it, type /mpredict. Now the game will always load with that command enabled.
