Hello everybody, I want to introduce myself, people just call me Hand.... Actually I am very new when it comes to nw role play, but i've always wanted to try it and see how it goes.... I frequent pvp servers like nwtactics, and I also do some modding.... I just wanted to know what to do? and how to get started? I'm pretty excited about my new step into the role playing world....

This girl at lunch today told me to 'talk to the hand' so I figured I'd better post here. Welcome to Avlis.

Alright i'm reading the guide little by little and have filled out the application.... I have one question, can someone give me a list of the hackpaks that need installed... It says on my guide to install the CoPaP, but do I need the CEP? I'm pretty confused.... Then there is a CoPaP patch?
Version 1.01(CEP)? What is that? I have the latest bioware patch 1.62....
I could use an easy step by step procedure, thanks for the help....

Hi.
There are two things needed for Avlis:
1: The Avlis HakPaks
2: The CEP v1.01
Both are available

that is the right file ... almost
rar is a compression format like zip. the tlk file you need is actually compressed inside the rar file.

The rar that I put into the tlk directory was not a zipped file, nor was it when I downloaded it... I had to do the complete install to get the tlk file that was required(It automatically was placed in the tlk directory), because I couldn't find it on the download site.... Downloading all the haks was no trouble because I intend to travel all the servers and experience what they have to offer... Perhaps the website moderator should post the tlk file that I mentioned *points up towards prior post* earlier, so people don't "have" to download the full install.... But again, it was no trouble to me....
Also, I read similar posts to troubleshoot the problem I had and all of them went unresolved....

Try the auto installation of CoPaP...no problem with it.

You need to go to
http://www.rarlab.com/download.htm and download WinRAR, and then RAR files will show up as compressed files (not zipped.) I realize it's too late for you, but know you know for next time.

I know of one other thread with the same problem where I posted this same answer:
viewtopic.php?t=32191&highlight=rar. Doing a search I did notice that there was one other person who made multiple posts about the same problem you did. I have replied to one of his posts with the same infomration on how to obtain a program to open rar files. Thanks for pointing this out.

Ok I understand now, I have read that posted but I didn't quite understand what it meant(about the "compressed file"). I thought that meant zipped files, and yes I did try to zip it and stick it in the nwn tlk file *slaps himself in the head*.... But thank you dougnoel I really appreciate your help alot....
