Hi there,
I was playing NWN Multi when suddenly the game crashed.
since then I can't use multi. it keeps on saying my cd key is in use and to try again int 5 minuets.

What should I do?

This is usually temporary and has to do with the crash.

Just try a bit later...


Make sure to restart the game...and in worst case maybe the whole computer as well (not sure)?

it's been like this for 3 days straight..

That is very odd.

You did get a proper CD-key for online play from GOG by filling out the request form (in the support section for NWN) for this right?

You did install the critical rebuild patch right?

If you did that already, there are only two things left. Contacting GOG for help and/or make a post in on the Social Bioware forums for Neverwinter Nights (which is the "real" NWN1 forum).


I did hear some suspicions that GOG was using "recycled" CD-keys...but I don't think that is the problem....or hope not at least...

I need to request a cd key for GOG?
lol I didn't know.. It was working before hand and then stopped..

Is there a link I need to use to request the cd key?

And thanks for the help!

*sigh*

Yeah...don't ask me why it is like this.


To get a proper CD-key that works for online play you need to follow theese instructions:
http://www.gog.com/en/support/neverwinter_nights_diamond_edition/online_play_in_neverwinter_nights_diamond

Also you need to get the critical rebuild patch for the game
(direct link for windows users)

(go to step 2 directly)

Thanks for the help.
I got the rebuild patch before hand because of the color problem I was having.

Just sent the application..
Wounder how I could play online before and then.. Must mean the cd key is real just in use.

Since you've already run the rebuild patch you could check some of the other suggestions in this thread :
