voudiou Posted April 5, 2006 Share Posted April 5, 2006 Hi there, First of all, just played the demo and wanted to thank Hubert for this very nice piece of work (I could also blame him for all the time I will spend on that game!!) Considering that the game was build with Eiffel, had you any plan to build it for Linux systems? I haven't had any chance to try to run the demo with Wine yet, but will report about it if I get a chance. Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hubert Cater Posted April 5, 2006 Share Posted April 5, 2006 While there are no current plans to build it for a Linux system I guess the option will always be there since Eiffel does allow for multiplatform development. Unfortunately at the time of SC1 there were no multiplatform multimedia libraries available and since SC2 was built upon much of the groundwork laid out in SC1 it wasn't an option for me to start over completely from scratch... would have taken that much longer Still, something to consider for perhaps down the road.

KAding Posted April 5, 2006 Share Posted April 5, 2006 I tried the demo on Fedora Core 5 with Wine earlier. But I got an error that DirectX 7 or greater could not be found. It installed but wouldn't run. So no luck with that. I guess I'll have to boot into Windows to play. No biggy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
