GemRB (Game engine made with pre-Rendered Background) is a portable open-source implementation of Bioware's Infinity Engine.
It was written to support pseudo-3D role playing games based on the Dungeons & Dragons ruleset (Baldur's Gate and Icewind Dale series, Planescape: Torment). It should run on GNU/Linux, Microsoft Windows, OS X, possibly other UNIX derivatives and more. It is licensed under the GPL.
Features
- Almost full compatibility with bg1, bg2 and iwd1 (can be played from start to end)
- Partial compatibility with pst and iwd2
- Extensible plugin-based design
- Many limitations of the original engine(s) were removed
- High portability, including improvements for touch based input

Reasons it doesn't get a perfect 10 ;) (a) no as in 0 documentation as to how to extend or edit levels (rts read the source). I compiled with these pre-installed: openal-soft-1.24.2 and SDL (1.2, 2.24, 3.2.2). source for "dragon lance editor" is windows only - and only .exe are in the zip. Demo showed warnings in xterm idk - but it played very well in linux. i was forced into building gemrb-0.93 (not newest) i don't remember why - some new ubuntu incompat junk added to 0.94

I have installed BG1 BG2 IWD1 AND IWD2 on my laptop. then installed GEMRB onto my kindle fire hd. I then copied all the games over to the GEMRB file. I then run GEMRB but all it can find is the standard 3 things ie BG2 demo. What am I doing wrong?
