Running a game as old as Neverwinter Nights on modern hardware means that changes need to be made.

Recommended Settings for Diamond Edition on Lutris =

Once you have Neverwinter Nights listed under your installed game, there are a few changes that need to be made in order to play. Right click the banner for Neverwinter Nights, then Configure to bring up that menu.

Under the first tab, "Game Info", you can change the name of the game to "Sinfar", if you'd like, it won't affect anything aside from what you see. The next tab is much more important. As a disclaimer, though, different users have had different results when getting into some of the runner options. If you do feel a need to experiment, Lutris will tell you which options are on or off by default.

Game Options

Firstly, you will need to change the executable from NWN.EXE to Sinfarx.EXE, which should already be in the same folder by this point. None of the other options should change, as they should already have the path to your main NWN installation.

Runner Options

Neverwinter Nights is an old game, which means it either doesn't need or can't take advantage of most features that are offered. For the most part, leave most settings to the default until you get further down the page. These are the ones that I've changed.

  • Enable E-sync (off)
  • Enable F-sync (off)
  • Enable AMD FidelityFX Super resolution (off)
  • Enable BattlEye Anti-cheat (off)
  • Enable Easy Anti-cheat (off)
  • Windowed Virtual Desktop (on)
