Remove Intro Movies in NWN and NWN 2

After running a few months on the 1.05.912 patch for NWN2, I realized I hadn’t turned off the start up movies. Since I had to go look it up again I thought I would pass it along. It was very simple and this one method works for both NWN and NWN 2.

All you have to do is open the nwn.ini file and in the [Display Options] section add this line “Disable Intro Movies=1″. The difference in NWN and NWN 2 is where this file is. For NWN, if you installed to the default location, you will found it in C:\NeverwinterNights\NWN. For NWN 2 it will be in My Documents\Neverwinter Nights 2.

Here is what the display section of my NWN 2 nwn.ini file looks like:

[Display Options]
FullScreen=1
Width=1280
Height=1024
RefreshRate=60
Gamma=1.041000
Disable Intro Movies=1

I love removing these once I have watched them, cause heck it is about playing the game right? This tip gets me to the game that much faster.

Get in game, and Level Up!

    I have decided to post tips like this as I come across them. So it will probably be just from time to time.

    I am working on you interview and will have it to you early in the week. This weekend is my youngest daughters 3rd birthday and Mother’s Day, I apologize for the delay.

    No apologies. I’m just yanking your chain cause I know how much Foxy’s looking forward to it. :)

    HAPPY BIRTHDAY to your daughter! Mine just turned 5 so I know how important those are and I’ve got lots to do today with her for our special Mother’s Day. Heck…without her, I wouldn’t get to celebrate today. ;) Have a GREAT weekend. :)
