LINUXGAMES

BioWare has released version 1.67 of the Dungeons and Dragons CRPG Neverwinter Nights. In addition to the usual bugfixes, BioWare has included a great deal of free content:

• Tropical and undersea tilesets
• Sea creatures
• Ocean-themed placeable items

This content was originally created for the Pirates of the Sword Coast premium module; it’s also noted in the patch FAQ that the revenue from the premium modules is what made this patch possible.

Another important note: the first files uploaded by BioWare had a build issue; the problem has been corrected, but if you downloaded the patch prior to this evening, you’ll need this fix:

If you’ve downloaded any of the patches for linux 1.67 and you have a problem with SOU (or any NPC’s not spawning), there was an error in the build of the final patches that resulted in a .o file being wrong, which caused problems. This has been fixed, and the patches have been updated. For those who have already downloaded the 1.67 patch, there is a “small” update available to fix the affected files at http://files.bioware.com/neverwinternights/updates/linux/167/linuxclient167fix.tar.gz

If you have the English XP1 or XP2 patch, you should also remove the dialogf.tlk file as it does not belong there either.

Sorry for the confusion.
