Sigil: City of Doors

I know, this thread isn't supposed to be here, but really I had no idea where to write this one down. :P

So, here's the thing: until some days ago, everything was fine. NwN2 was working, I had my character progressing in levelling up, and so on.

Until two-three days ago.

Every time I launch Nwn2 (with nwn2.exe, nwn2main.exe, nwn2main_amdxp.exe or nwn2Launcher.exe) I have black screen with no audio and my cursor as some sort of wheel running, just like when it's loading something.

I tried to: reinstall the .NET Framework, DirectX 9.0c, rename and/or delete the NwN2 folder in My Documents, Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Redistributable and 2008, Disable intro Movies, Check on Event Viewer, check Dxdiag, reinstall the whole game three-four times, and maybe something else i forgot.

The only things I installed before these problems began were: Batman Arkham Origins and a patch of SUPERAntiSpyware.

I tried to unistall both, but the problem was still there.

Do you have any suggestions please? I'd really love to come back in Sigil :P


Thanks in advance!



P.S.: I almost forgot, every time I have to close it with Task Manager. Alt+Tab is not working. And checking under Applications, it says "Does Not Respond".

Reinstall nwn2? Maybe a file is corrupt?

I'll try one more time then, i'll let you know. :)


P.S.: my NwN2 is the GOG.com version, don't know if that matters or not.



EDIT: Tried and it didn't work.

Anything coming up when you run dxdiag for your display? It sounds like superantispyware did something to your registry.

https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/179113 Update directx too.

Is it possible for you to roll back your system to what it was before you installed BA:Origins and that antispyware?

Have you tried turning off all anti-spyware, firewalls, anti-virus, etc. before launching?

(To see if it could be that)

What version of windows are you running?

Might try running it in Windows XP compatibility mode.

Right i forgot my comp specs (but I already tried with Win XP compatibility Mode, still nothing changed):

wrote:OS: Win7 Home Premium 64-bit SP1

Processor: AMD FX-6300 Six-Core

RAM: 8,0 GB

Video Card: NVidia GeForce GTX 750

I ran DxDiag, but nothing strange seem to happen. I already updated my DirectX too.


I think i have a way to come back before I installed the Antispyware and BA:Origins, I might try this weekend.

Tried and... nope, nothing at all.



I really hate NwN2 right now xD

You've probably already done this, but go into your Nvidia specific control panel and see if you've got any settings set for nwn 2 specifically or globally that might be causing the issue. I think there is something called FXAA, which is a type of antialiasing that works very poorly with the game.

Also disable your intro videos. A quick google search should provide the how, it's just a matter of going into the install folder and modifying a value in setup values.

Already done this one, but nothing changed unfortunately.

I'll try to check for the FXAA, but I doubt that's the problem since it worked well and I made no updates the day NwN2 stopped working.

I'll have a look anyhow, you never know.


EDIT: Checked, and it's already deactivated.
