We are currently running through the loop of: find bug, fix bug, make new build, test. Rinse and repeat. Unfortunately, this is also the longest part of development and the most uncertain. It is even harder now to give you a date on the Client Beta. </i></blockquote> And later, Derek French comments again on the forum: <blockquote><i> Let me be very clear here. :) As soon as all the issues that are critical for releasing the Linux Beta are resolved, we will be posting the files. Not one second longer. We are just not at the state right now. You want a Beta. I want you to have the Beta. We are just not there, yet. :( </i></blockquote> | NWN Update | default | |
