• TO PREPARE FOR NEXT WEEK'S SESSION, IF YOU CANNOT ATTEND THE STUDIO IN PERSON TO BORROW ONE OF OUR LAPTOPS, YOU NEED TO PURCHASE AND DOWNLOAD NeverWinter Nights: Enhanced Edition from Steam (you do not need the full bundle, though you are welcome to if you wish). If you can install this on Windows or Linux you will be able to use the more advanced tools later in your training. Installing on Mac OS will allow you to play, but be problematic using any of the other tools. WE HIGHLY RECOMMEND THE STEAM VERSION. YOU WILL NEED THIS WORKING BEFORE YOUR TRAINING SESSION STARTS NEXT WEEK!

• If you are having trouble getting NWN:EE installed, feel free to post in our chatroom and others can help you resolve any issues or answer questions you may have. If nobody there can help, feel free to contact your coach/mentor/supervisor.
