MacOS 10.13.6 vs NWN EE 8193.32+

I'm trying to help diagnose a problem for a friend. They use an old version of MacOS, High Sierra, 10.13.6 but were fine running the NWN EE client until the 8193.32 update. Now if they try and run multiplayer, as soon as they try and connect to a server they get a message "NWN EE has encountered a fatal error and cannot continue" and then the client crashes. They see the same behavior with the 8193.33 patch. Is anyone else running on High Sierra and if so are you having the same problem? Alternatively does anyone know of a workaround for this?

and chosen a server you would like to join - then click 'direct connect' and input the server IP number after which it will ask you for your game user/tag which is basically your steam username and then it SHOULD work ... fingers crossed, a bit annoying because you have to save the ip number and associate it to the server you are using or just do this procedure every time instead of being able to click it in the server list on NWN, but ok im accustomed to this manoeuvre because i am a long time NWN player and used to do this for other legacy servers with the non enhanced version.
Anyway, hopefully, with this tip you can enjoy NWN again ! :steamhappy::steamhappy:
If anyone else finds a better solution would love to hear it and thanks for the workaround!
is the one that bugs out - but as i mentioned above, going via the direct connect option in lan gaming works. just not server browser option...
This also gives you access to the toolset, which is HUGE for me.
Sadly not a real Mac solution but it's the best option I have found.
