=How to turn on script logging= This page describes the process for tuning on script logging.

Current as of 30 Dec 2007: NwN2 1.11.1153

Setup nwn2palyer.ini
Edit the file My Documents\Neverwinter Nights 2\nwn2player.ini and check you have:

[Server Options] Scripts Print To Log=1 Scripts Print To Screen=1

I had to change mine from 0 to 1.

Be sure not to change the files in "Program Files\Atari\Neverwinter Nights 2" as these get overridden by the setting the My Documents directory.

Setup nwn2.ini
Edit the file My Documents\Neverwinter Nights 2\nwn2.ini and ensure you have:

Debug Text=1

I added mine to the end of the file, as it was not there.

Generate a log
Run the game, anyway you like (server, local game or from the tool-set).

Show hidden folders
The log files normally get put in a hidden folder. Turn on viewing hidden folders (if you haven't already): Open Windows Explorer (or My Computer, not Internet Explorer). From the menu select Tools > Folder Options. On the View tab, check the box "Show hidden files and folders".

Find the log
Find the log file. By default it is C:\Documents and Settings\Your User Name\Local Settings\Temp\NWN2\LOGS\nwclientLog1.txt

If you can't find it there, you might have moved your %temp% directory like me. Right click My Computer and select search. Select "All files and folders" and enter the file name "nwclientLog1.txt". It may take a while to search your computer, depending on how many files you have on your hard drive(s). When it appears in the list, double click to open.

If all else fails
