LINUXGAMES

GemRB version 0.3.0 has been announced; the project is an open source clone of BioWare’s Infinity Engine, which was used in many classic computer role-playing games. New features include:

• TLK override handling (custom biographies and map notes)
• weapon immunities
• party AI
• expansion playmode
• more actions, triggers and effects
• loading of projectile explosion animations
• kit information window
• improved sound (now perfect!), character generation, opcodes, character record window, pathfinding, tooltip delay and lotsa bugfixes

It’s also noted that while there’s still a bit of missing functionality, Baldur’s Gate 2 in particular is playable. As for myself, I’m interested in finally being able to give Planescape: Torment a spin, having owned it without taking it out of the CD case for several years now :(
