Guest JaseP Posted May 3, 2003 Report Share Posted May 3, 2003 BioWare has released the Linux NWN Beta 5. The new beta fixes some minor issues. I haven't tried it yet, so someone else can be the guinea pig. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DragonMage Posted May 3, 2003 Report Share Posted May 3, 2003 Cool. Time for me to download and see what's been changed. (backuping my nwn.ini and nwnplayer.ini first of course). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Joentje Posted May 3, 2003 Report Share Posted May 3, 2003 Beta 5 works great for me. It seems a litle bit smoother for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest JaseP Posted May 5, 2003 Report Share Posted May 5, 2003 People using DRI drivers have had a lot of problems with Beta 5. Only nVidia owners should consider switching at this point, I feel (and maybe ATI Radeon owners). I have downloaded but not switched. I will likely backup the directory and THEN switch to Beta 5, after I've thoroughly read all the problems people have been having. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jlc Posted May 6, 2003 Report Share Posted May 6, 2003 Do you need a CD to run NWN Beta? Is it a download install? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest JaseP Posted May 6, 2003 Report Share Posted May 6, 2003 To run NWN you need a copy of the software and a Windoze install to transfer the files over. Alternatively, you can use Ravage's installer and the beta files to patch it to the current beta. But without a CD-key, found in the inside cover of the manual, you cannot play the game.
