GemRB (Game Engine Made with preRendered Background) – a portable open-source reimplementation of the Infinity Engine that underpinned Baldur’s Gate, Icewind Dale and Planescape: Torment. It sports a cleaner design, greater extensibility and several innovations.
To try it out you either need some of the ORIGINAL game’s data or you can get a tiny sneak peek by running the included trivial game demo.
The original game data has to be installed if you want to see anything but the included trivial demo. On non-windows systems either copy it over from a windows install, use a compatible installer, WINE or extract it manually from the CDs using the unshield tool.
Supported platforms:
– Linux x86, x86-64, ppc, mips (s390x builds, but no running info)
– FreeBSD, OpenBSD, NetBSD
– MS Windows
– various Macintosh systems (even pre x86)
– some smart phones (Symbian, Android, other Linux-based, iOS)
– some consoles (OpenPandora, Dingoo)
– some exotic OSes (ReactOS, SyllableOS, Haiku, AmigaOS, AmberElec, ArkOS, UnofficialOS)
