Neverwinter Nights: Enhanced Edition Development Build 8179

Neverwinter Nights: Enhanced Edition Development Build 8179 is now available. This build is a release candidate for 1.76. Thank you all for your assistance in hunting down bugs and testing these development builds.

Fixes

We addressed the majority of Intel-GPU related crashes. However, we will not rest until all of them are resolved.

Details

This patch is tiny as far as the log goes, as it specifically addresses the Intel crash issue. Some players on very specific and hard to reproduce Intel GPU and driver combinations, were seeing severe crashing on area load screens and many situations with heavy NPC activity. Unfortunately, this is not a complete fix for the issue, but it has shown to be a great improvement for the majority of players. We are aware of a separate, though much less frequently occurring, crash that we are still chasing down. We are also very much aware of related performance issues on some Intel setups (stuttering when loading into heavy activity). However, finding and fixing these will take more time than this patch cycle allowed, as we wanted to get this fix out as soon as feasible.

A Fix For 8176

To ease pain on the current stable patch, we've prepared a binary for players to plug into existing install that contains the backported crash fix. This is not shipped to everyone automatically, so if you are seeing crashes on Intel hardware, you will have to apply the patch by hand until the next official release. Instructions:

Download the zip file here.
Extract the contained .exe into your game install, bin/win32 directory. On Steam, you can find this via "Browse Local Files" when going into the game properties. On the Beamdog Client, you can find it by clicking "Open Game Location" under game options.
When extracting, make sure to overwrite the existing nwmain.exe.
Please note that both Steam and Beamdog Client will revert to the non-fixed binary if you run a Verify.
