kostandrea Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 So yeah due to my motherboard getting fried i don't have windows anymore and i have to compromise with an old pc that i have put linux on the thing is that i can't get the games for linux(by the way wine just doesn't work for me) so why not make a linux convertion since the games are open source ? p.s. please make .deb file for ubuntu because i have lubuntu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FunkyFr3sh Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 none of the games are open source, but many people use wine+winetricks dotnet2.0 to play on cncnet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kostandrea Posted September 25, 2014 Author Share Posted September 25, 2014 if they are not open source then how do you eplain this ? http://www.openra.net/ (and as i said wine doesnt work for me) The only reason why i came to u was because i want the originall multiplayer not this one they broke it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FunkyFr3sh Posted September 25, 2014 Share Posted September 25, 2014 openra is a remake, they did not use any of the original code and that is probably why you think they broke it we only support the original games here, everything we do has been done in x86 assembly without having any source code. So wine is the only option sadly ;( what is the problem with wine on your end? It is a must have for any linux user, you should really find out what the problem is Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kostandrea Posted September 25, 2014 Author Share Posted September 25, 2014 where do i start in some supported games it has massive fps drop no punk buster and it causes a lot of con lag while i have an adsl line (that in all games) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FunkyFr3sh Posted September 25, 2014 Share Posted September 25, 2014 how old is your pc at all? Wine takes a lot more resources than running the game on win XP for example. You need at least a dual core cpu, that is for sure Get windows XP somewhere, or even win7 .. both will be able to run the game just fine with older pcs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FunkyFr3sh Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 it might be faster in some ways with linux, but playing windows games is not an option with that specs on linux. Win7 would run fine with that pc, you could even start the game multiple times without problems Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pichorra Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 It will work in GDI rendering mode, but you will get a lot more performance in XP. I have a Pentium 4 3.06Ghz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
