Do I have to download the installers for copap, cep and stuff if I already have all the .hak's and .2da's backed up?
Or can I just move the backed up files into their respective folders from my clean install, and expect to be able to play on copap?
Any suggestions on what to do. My first re-install of cep and nwn.
thanks

To backup:
You must have to connect:
- all haks
- all tlk files
Basically if you save those and put them back in where they are supposed to go you should be able to play normally. That's all NWN checks besides the patch version of NWN itself.
Other things you might want to save include:
- your ini files, more specifically: nwn.ini, nwnplayer.ini and nwncdkeys.ini (all those custom settings, not to mention your cd-keys)
- anything you might use in your override folder.
- any custom portraits you use
- your characters' custom journals (.txt files in the localvault folder).
So much fun,
yet so little time to enjoy it.

cool thanks.
I thought of everything and some, i had backed up a few other folders too, and the ini files.
*sigh of relief*
I will have to redownload and install nwnx2 again though right?
