Hi, All!

Sometimes occurs strange glitch of area rendering.
Types of manifestation:

    1. Black (most cases) or random (two or so times happened) colored stripe slowly runs across NWN window. Always seen in Bendir and Kohl, sometimes in other areas. In console may be error about memory problem within some windll.

    2. Black squares or zones, both on minimap and main screen. not rendered area of permanent darkness. May be freely navigated, but nothing visible within it. Seen at Cordor severs, slakh caves, some other sites. Not happens for me before 2016.

    3. Complete not rendered area. Only NPCs visible. May be freely navigated in "blind mode". Seen at Cordor trading hall, Cordor merchant temple, some other areas. May be re-rendered properly with switch to familiar and back. Exiting and entering back into affected area will not help. Not happens for me before 2016.

May be wine (1.9.{11..14}) bug, or current nvidia drivers (361.28) bug, or superposition. Or some Amia bug.

System: intel e5540, ram 48G, nvidia GT730 + driver 361.28, GNU+Linux Gentoo 2.2, wine 1.9.{11..14} abi_x86=32 (version 1.8.3 (stable) in testing), nwn 1.69 (diamond edition) win32

p.s. also, nwn may segfault in transition from bendir to mylock hills (esp. if Amia entered in bendir)

The black, or grey, moving stripe is likely an nVidia issue, my former computer had that too, it was annoying.

The black areas, or partially rendered areas can be fixed using your radial menu, use the Player Tools option, then Debug Tool for the black areas. It takes your character to the Entry Room, then puts you back where you were all fixed.

Kudark, thank you for information.
p.s. radeon (at least r7 240), if I correctly remember, have "moving stripe" problem too.

If I R-click on PC, there are nothing like 'player tools' or so. How can I get in it?

It's something that came out a few months ago

viewtopic.php?f=2&t=84474&hilit=player+tools

But in short, type /s f_playertools and it will add it your radial menu
