0 Irony Posted January 9, 2010 Posted January 9, 2010 Hi, I'm afraid, I don't understand what you're asking? can you rephrase your question?
0 Tore Posted January 9, 2010 Posted January 9, 2010 Hmm, maybe you can still host games from the chat.. I wonder if Irony reenabled that.
0 Nyerguds Posted January 9, 2010 Posted January 9, 2010 no, I asked him about it, and he was all "huh, so THAT's what that code was. No sorry, removed it." But maybe he restored it now he knows what it was? I dunno.
0 Irony Posted January 10, 2010 Posted January 10, 2010 Nah, still commented out. tbh, I don't see the point?
0 ander_cc Posted January 10, 2010 Author Posted January 10, 2010 Reask , why other peoples must see a game when hosted it without CnCNet ? (obviously through wine) How the game tell to others, that i hosted a game.
0 Nyerguds Posted January 10, 2010 Posted January 10, 2010 Irony: The point was that people on Linux can join the chat, and then host a game. People on Windows with the cncnet tool could then join that game.
0 Irony Posted January 11, 2010 Posted January 11, 2010 okay, fair enough, but why would you want to do that over just hosting the game in windows?
0 Nyerguds Posted January 11, 2010 Posted January 11, 2010 Ehh, this is more a matter of NOT HAVING Windows. C&C itself runs through WINE, but cncnet is a tray icon app... Wine only emulates Windows system calls for single programs, it's not an entire VM.
0 ander_cc Posted January 13, 2010 Author Posted January 13, 2010 maybe if rebuild the cncnet to non "tray icon" app, it can be runed on Linux ?
0 Irony Posted January 14, 2010 Posted January 14, 2010 Ohhhh. Okay. I think I sort of get it. I don't get how the code I've got helps though... Isn't each wine process in it's own 'vm'
0 Nyerguds Posted January 14, 2010 Posted January 14, 2010 not really... Wine just translates system calls or something... it's not a virtual machine, or even an emulator. (in fact, "Wine" means "Wine Is Not an Emulator")
0 Irony Posted January 14, 2010 Posted January 14, 2010 I'll look into linux support again at some point then. It's exam time for me atm, so there won't be an update for a few weeks.
