NWN Linux Screenshots

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the things-to-lust-after dept.

Gabe writes "Looks like the NWN linux client page has been updated with screenshots!. Finally, some decent proof that Bioware is coming through for us linux folks. Maybe it's time to open my copy soon :)" My replacement CPU fan is here, so I theoretically can now play NWN. Can't wait for the good modules to start being developed. In the meantime, we should use it as the prettiest IRC server ever... where you can kill your friends instead of just kickbanning them :)

    Notice how their Linux Client page is in the Downloads section of their website?

    You will not have to pay for it, unless you don't already own the Windows version of course.

    (I don't know about the Mac version, though)...

    The game content is still NOT free, and you'll have to buy a windows NWN cd to get it. This client only lets you play the content you've already bought in Linux.

    Granted, these dev tools require Windows but so does the Aurora toolkit for NWN.

    I know at least one person who has gotten the NWN tools to work with wine. He even provides an RPM for those who don't want to tackle configuration.
