Neverwinter Nights and Windows 11

[Cedrelix]

I came across an Original NWN while sorting my attic! I would like to play it under Win 11. Game installs but won't play. Happy to purchase the Enhanced Edition but will it run under Win 11? Thanks.

EE runs under Windows 11.

To get the Original NWN to work under recent versions of Windows, you need to apply the 1.69 Critical Rebuild[neverwintervault.org]. This is the official Bioware upgrade to release 1.69, the last one before EE. You may also need to Run As Administrator, and make the .exe files AV exceptions.

I have both 1.69 and EE running on the same PC under Win11. The default folders are different, so there's no conflict.

I do this because I develop mods for both platforms.

However, players only really need EE, so consider giving Beamdog some much-deserved revenue.

Your other option to play the disc version as is is to setup a VM of WinXP and play it through the VM.

Thanks a lot. I purchased EE. :-)

it should run perfectly fine on all modern operating systems, you will have a blast with this i hope!
