    Patch 1.67 FAQ

    well thanks for the unneeded sarcasm....
    You haven't seen me sarcastic yet if you identified my previous post as sarcasm :p


    so yeah an ESTIMATED date would be nice... this way its not set in stone an can be changed. but it will shut people like me up who want to know.
    Let me find what I posted to the same question last patch .. ah, and the patch before ... and the one before that as well


    <snip>
    I could give you some estimated date, but it would end up being taken as a promise and it would, no doubt, end up being wrong - causing the whole "you promised it would be out ..." thing again.

    That's why we tend to avoid the estimates thing alltogether these days and give you a "when it's done" instead.
    </snip>

    Alright? It's not that we don't want to tell you, it's that the complexities of the product and the numerous parties involved in getting a patch to ship make it extremely hard to do any reliable estimates on when the patch will ship and since people have been notoriously bad at misunderstanding estimates for promises, it's a good idea not to get started on the estimates business.

    Obviously the patch is close to be finished (as few patches we did had more than 2 beta releases), but how much time will be needed until the patch get officially release? Don't know, can't tell. The only person qualified to give even a rough estimate would be Derek, and I'm not sure if he's able or willing to do that at this time.

    Proxy Servers with NWN
    A proxy server usually has the purpose of serving http (web) traffic, it will likely not work for NWN. You would have to talk to your network administrator to resolve your issue.

    Infinity Engine Downloads Anyone?
    The rights to the Baldurs Gate series are with other parties, so BioWare would not be able to provide you with new content for these games, sorry. As pointed out above, there are plenty of quite nice mods made by the BG community instead :)

    NO XP FOR MY PLAYERS
    Make sure to check the XPScale setting in the module properties.
