What was the fix???

Hey I made it in!!! Thank all of you who took time to post and help me.

I'm getting the same error "CD Key Unauthorized". I checked my keys and there was one letter that was wrong, so I changed it. I also tried to change the letter from lower case to capital. The file I am changing is located at C:\Program Files (x86)\Atari\DnDNWNC\Neverwinter Nights II\nwncdkey. The keys are only listed as key1, key2, and key3, they do not have the game that it is for listed. I have purchased a sealed copy with discs from a retail store. Please let me know your thoughts on the issue.

I looked at my "nwn" config settings. I pasted it below, but I do not see where the game keys are. I'm still looking in the C:\Program Files (x86)\Atari\DnDNWNC\Neverwinter Nights II folder.

[Jhickey]

I would help but I do not know what I am looking at with all that.

[Erlick_Spring]

Do I have to download any hack packs to get everything to work?

[FayrisNyanNyan]

Those are downloaded when you try to get on the Server.

[Erlick_Spring]

I plugged in my keys from NWN, but it is asking for me to register at http://www.atari.com/us/support. That page has been taken down. Any ideas to beat this?

[Saulus]

The heart of the problem is with Atari, they seem to no longer have the service up that validates the CDKeys to allow you to login. Existing keys don't seem to be an issue.

This essentially kills all hope of ever having new players come to the game as you can't even buy a used copy now and get it working.

Unfortunately only Atari can fix this problem.

[Fezzik]

That might be a while then considering they filed for bankruptcy...

[FayrisNyanNyan]

Not to encourage any illegal activity, but isn't there a Key Generator for NWN2?

[Saulus]

Not to encourage any illegal activity, but isn't there a Key Generator for NWN2?

You would have the same problem, to my understanding it would have to be a pre-existing key that's been registered before for it to work.

I really wish I had a work-around because trust me, I'd like you to come play on the server.

[Erlick_Spring]

I contacted Atari, and they said that all support has been transfered to Wizards....What a run around. Will the servers let you have multiple users witht he same CD key? Does it check all 3 CD keys, or do I only have to find one that was registered. I had bought NWN2 when it first came out, so I think I still have that key. That would have been registered, but not sure I need old keys for the expansion packs.
