I need help.. Neverwinter Nights - HOTU

[physicscarp]

So, how do you do the debug mode to give gold? I'll try that.

While in the game, hit the ` key. That's the tilda key. A prompt will appear in the upper left corner of the screen. Type DebugMode 0 (that's a zero). Some of the traps or triggers may appear on overlaid on the world now. If you press TAB, a list of commands can be entered into the prompt. I believe the one for gold is GiveGold xxx , where xxx is the amount of gold you wish to give. Once the command is typed, press Enter, and use the mouse to select your character. Viola! Instant gold! Or XP, or levels, or abilities, etc.

Once you're finished cheating (shame on you all!) , type DebugMode 1 in to the prompt again, followed by Enter, and the prompt will disappear, and your game will resume normally. Enjoy!

Actualy that formula he gave you is close..
start by hitting the ` key
then type DebugMode1
hit the ` key again
type dm_givegold 10000(or whatever amount of gold)
click on character
hit ` again
type DebugMode0

Thats how I did it anyway. And in answer to CarpBrain, yeah its cheating... But if you read all my posts you know I tried everything else first. And even at this I only took enough gold to get my gold up to the 200k I needed. And thats it. I didnt even load that cheat program.
I dont like even asking for hints.. But I had put in the time on this game and tried all avenues I could to get tips and strategys first. None worked. It was the only way I could defeat him. And even then All I did was get the 65k or so gold more I needed to use a system build into the game to aid me.
I hate that I had to do it. But after all the effort and time I put in I dont feel to bad for using the small cheat I did.

Peace

Anyone know of a legitimate way to get the two upgrades on the cheap? I've got Neverwinter Nights, but don't have the upgrades...

Also, what sort of user-created campaigns have been made for the upgrades?

Aside from trying to find used copies or possibly getting them cheap off of eBay or some similar site, I don't particularly know.

Pretty much all of them coming out now are for SoU and HotU, but take a look around at the Vault, where pretty much every module is archived.

OK, spent thsa last hour trying to do BOTH debug modes mentioned here to get gold, and I get DEBUG MODE NOT FOUND no matter what way I try it. I dowloaded that Leto program and it did nothing for me. Very frustrated. I know to tey and get Leto to work I have to change a line in another NWN file. How can I get my debug mode to work? :\

 

[KenM]

Double post.

 

[Greylock]

You have to edit your NWN.ini file if you do not have the expansions. Change the lines DebugMode and Enforce Legal Chars to the value of one. If that seems obscure, just buy the expansions. Or don't cheat. Your choice ;p.

 

[KenM]

I have both expansions, what do i have to change in that file?

 

[Chaz]

I didnt have to do anything special to get it to work. It worked for me right the first time with no problems. I just yped the stuff i mentioned above and clicked on my char. It was pretty simple. Im not sure why it wont work for you. Im sorry, I have no clue. :\
Good luck though.

Peace

lol you bunch of cheaters

Mephistoles as he's called respectively as a duke of 3 layers of hell iirc is easily defeatable by a mage.

You just learn Mestils Acid Breath, you memorize all your 3rd level spells slots with the spell, then all your 5th level spell slots with empowered mestils acid breaths, then all your 6th level spell slots with maximized MABs, then all your 7th level slots with quickened MABs, then all your 8th level slots with horrid wiltings, all your 9th level spells with errr... dunno, make it exiting. You throw all that against him which should easily kill him, and if that doesn't do it a Greater Ruin and a Hellball to boost.

Works every time for me.

And your henchmen can be coerced through truenames, or if yuo treated them well and inquired enough to their personal state and had all conversations with them about their beliefs and background you wont even need that. (A high diplomacy or persuasion skill does it as well for me and 100% succes in combination with treating them well and acting interested.).

That's the surest way to kill mephisto without resorting to cheats as a wizard.
