NWN Linux Client Update

Bioware updated their Neverwinter Nights Linux client page with a status update of that long-awaited port. Here's the news, typos and all:

Thanks to all of you that e-mailed in about Linux mouse wheel support. We really appreciate the support of the Linux community. We are still trudging along this week, working on various bugs and getting more features implemented into the Linux client. We have fixed an issue with the GCC compiler under RedHat 8, but are still working on the RedHat 8 high CPU utilization issue. Some of the GUI button issues in the Mac client also reared their ugly heads in the Linux client. Its certainly is nice to fix a bug on one platform and have it fix the others, too. Here are some Succubi screenshots for you veiwing pleasure.

Which reminds me, I haven't played NWN in quite some time. RTCW and then UT2K3 have stolen a lot of my gaming time recently. Maybe it's time to get back. Of course, getting the new gamepad moved me to dust off NHL 2001 too . . .

J.t.Qbe comments: I've actually been getting a hankering to play a little NWN myself too. With over 1500 user-made modules now available, I'll bet we can find a good one to play online.
