    It might be a directx issue if you are stuck at the loading screen indefinitely. I was having the same problem with Preview and it got solved by inserting "-d3d9" command in the launcher options.

    Are you sure? I thought the command switch is "-d3d11Enable 0" (no quotation marks)

    tried the -d3d11Enable 0 command line... no results sadly

    :( - another thought, not sure if you have already tried it - if you use Arc, try just starting the game without the Arc client. Close Arc completely, go to the client executable (in my case, "...\Neverwinter\Neverwinter_en\Neverwinter.exe") and start from there.

    I hope it works for you. Sadly, I cannot think of anything else to try

    Having the same sort of issues trying to load the game now. Not sure why this is happening, but it's annoying as hell.
  • nebel1990nebel1990 Member Posts: 6 Arc User
    thats what she... nvm :P On a more serious note, did you use safe more or the command line?
  • abjorn85abjorn85 Member Posts: 4 Arc User
    Ok, we should've expected this based on past events. Not too happy about it myself, but just gotta take it in stride until its fixed.

    Exactly the problem I'm having. The launcher says "Connecting to account server" then just quits after a minute.

    Nevermind. Apparently some genius thought it would be fun to use four API routines from UXTheme.dll (which Windows 2000 doesn't have). Thankfully a long time ago someone made a 2k-compatible version for just such an event.

    Now I'm able to get to the login window.

    Well the -d3d9 thing worked for me. Now stuck at the strongholds loading. Black screen.
    Beautiful.

    d3d9? What is this that everyone is speaking of? It's a cmd right? Where do I need to insert it?
  • bertrandxbertrandx Member, NW M9 Playtest Posts: 147 Arc User
    Yes, I'm sure. There might be other ways to do it, but that one worked for me.

    Launcher options, scroll down, insert the command at the bottom. This is for those having directx issues. I couldn't get past the neverwinter loading screen when connecting to preview until I used this code, I was having the same problem now on live. I put that line in the launcher options and im in the game now.

    EDIT: I got in also without it, so I don't know anymore. In any case, giving a try if you're having trouble getting past NW load screen won't do any harm.

    Thank you I will try that. I went and did a search CMD on my comp just to see if my Dir-x was working and updated and it is with no issues so I know now it's on their end. I will certainly try that and *keeps fingers crossed* it works for me ^_^
