<div class="IPBDescription">Where do I put ns_i386.so?</div> The 2.01 beta patch doesn't really come with instructions, not that I expected it to.
The zip has 2 files:
ns.dll
ns_i386.so
I could find a previously existing ns.dll, so I just replaced it, but I have no idea what to do with ns_i386.so. Do I just put it in the base NS directory?

    It's a server side only patch. You dont need it unless you're running a server. If you are, just extract it to your ns directory. It won't hurt you if you do it on a client, either, but it's also unnecessary.

    The .so file is, I believe, the Linux HLDS patch. Shouldn't even be required by Windoze servers.

    But you can drop the .dll file in the "dll" folder in your NS directory. =P
