Bioware Releases Neverwinter Nights Linux Client Beta

Posted by timothy on from the but-it's-only-spring-first dept.

valedaemon writes "Well, I thought that the world would end before this day dawned, but Bioware has finally made good on its promise of a Linux client for Neverwinter Nights. You still need a Windows installation in order to copy the game data, but the good news is that the downloadable is only 4.4 MB. I could write more, but why? Go play!"

    Seems to work for me. I just followed the instructions and copied the files from my NTFS partition, extracted the tarball, ran the "fixnwn" script, and the dang thing works! Loaded my save game and everything.

    Neverwinter Nights works with:
    [X] Debian Woody 3.0
