NWN2 - Toolset Troubles

Seems there's plenty of problems with the much touted pre-release of the NWN2 toolset. First up, the official forums are running hot with many people complaining about major difficulties actually downloading the toolset. Part of this is due to it coming in nine separate files which frequently fail to download properly. Several took me three attempts before I had success.

Having finally overcome that hurdle, many, including myself faltered at the installation. Repeatedly the programme is having trouble loading and it took me several hours of reading forum posts and trying various solutions before I managed a successful install.

As if this wasn't enough, there are even more forum threads discussing the crashes which eventuate when people attempt to actually use the toolset to create content.

Unfortunately, the developers are too busy getting the actual game ready for release to be of much help, so for now, my advice is to wait till after release before facing the frustrations of the toolset.
