Every time I restart NWN I have to redownload POTM
« on: January 31, 2023, 11:59:20 PM »
As in the title. I start up NWN, log onto POTM it gives me the prompt to download 7.2-7.3 GB of missing files. I download them then play POTM. When I quit and start the game again it asks me to download the same 7.2-7.3 GBs of files to start POTM?

This is almost always related to cloud storage moving your files off of your local drive so the game thinks you don't have them and proceeds to download them again. Check your OneDrive (if you use Windows) and what it's actively syncing, and if it's syncing your Documents folder (which is where your NWSync files are stored), turn it off for that folder or just disable OneDrive (or respective cloud storage program) entirely.
