Mac OS X NWN Technology Demo Released

Posted by michael on from the late-to-the-party dept.

h0tblack writes "At long last the Mac OS X demo of Neverwinter Nights has been released. We now have a torrent running to get the demo distributed and take the load of off the official servers (macgamefiles should have the demo soon). Download the BitTorrent for Mac OS X client if you don't already have it. Then grab the torrent file for the tech-demo from bytemonsoon.com. After downloading the demo, PLEASE leave your BitTorrent window open, this will mean that the load is shared amongst us all and more people can download faster."

  1. Mirror of the .torrent file by Motherfucking+Shit · · Score: 5, Informative

    I've mirrored the .torrent file here. I removed the spaces from the filename, but it's otherwise identical to the copy from ByteMonsoon and I'm downloading from it now.

    Any other mirrors? :)

    FYI, BioWare did the Mac port themselves. MacSoft is only the publisher for the Mac version.

  3. Performance Notes on NWN Demo by slycer9 · · Score: 5, Informative

    Hardware: 17" tiBook, 1GB RAM
    Game Settings: All options MAXED, no anti-aliasing
    Resolution: 1440

    Pros: Runs flawlessly, no hitches, slow framerates or draggy performance.

    Cons: No NPC voices. No speech during spellcasting. No shiny water. (tho I don't remember if my vid card supports it)

    Very nice job, runs great. Now just gotta wait for the DM Client!
