    I believe NWN:EE will be 64 bit.

    Yes during the first Twitch stream they said 64 bit version was happening.

    That's correct. It'll be happening, just not right now.

    Which means ... iPad?

    Although, to be honest, I doubt it sincerely. I don't know if it would be worth adapting NWN's interface to a touch device. The IE games didn't quite rely on the keyboard and mouse like NWN.

    No word on mobile, but we'll need 64bit for macOS itself too - if you've been following the news, Apple will drop support for 32bit apps at some point.

    Besides, it's time to join the modern times.

    I too, am definitely looking forward to the 64-bit upgrade, opens up quite a few possibilities for modding and more. So great seeing a classic revived!

    So, will it be possible to put ”port to iOS” on the “long term 3-6 months” or is it not going to be a straight port and require more changes?

    That settles it. I have been struggling with a choice of a new pc (using 12 year old laptop) or a new iPad (5 years old).
    I think iPad is winning.
    But, I would like to know (i know it hasnt been settled) what kind of Nwn will be coming to mobile.
    1) how to get modules?
    2) by then, will a lot of modules be available to download (in comparison to nwn vault)?
    3) tools included or not (it doesn’t really bother me because I don’t use it)
    4) will haks and overrides be allowed?

    I guess this is still in development. Try asking these questions during a stream.
  • StaranStaran Member, Mobile Tester Posts: 295
    Twitch on cellular data seems to stop too often.
    I mostly have to miss them to watch on YouTube after
  • JuliusBorisovJuliusBorisov Member, Administrator, Moderator, Developer Posts: 22,724
    @Staran Try to watch it in a different browser, Mozilla, for eg.
  • StaranStaran Member, Mobile Tester Posts: 295
    Mozilla doesn’t sounds very ios :smile:
    It is sometimes better in safari
