Chicoria95 Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 As far as I know it is already possible to build ORCT2 to run natively on Linux, without using wine. However, I remember reading that it still contain some bugs. Is running natively and well on Linux a goal for this stable release? Link to comment
RuneLaenen Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 No, until full decompilation is accuired, the native Linux build will keep being buggy and only working for a part. You'll have to keep using Wine. As soon as linux builds are a 100% functional, you'll find builds and guides on this website. It would be very big news for OpenRCT2 to be 100% compatible with everything, so it won't go by unnoticed. Link to comment
Chicoria95 Posted November 11, 2015 Author Share Posted November 11, 2015 No problems with that, really. Though It would surely be big news. Thanks again! Link to comment
Gymnasiast Posted November 14, 2015 Share Posted November 14, 2015 I disagree with "You'll have to keep using Wine". Sure, it contains slightly more bugs, but almost all of them are language-related, so running it in UK English will save you most of them. It's certainyl daily usable, which coincidentally is exactly what I do. Link to comment
RuneLaenen Posted November 14, 2015 Share Posted November 14, 2015 Could you provide a .deb file or something? Im not sure how that works :p I could never get it to build on linux :( Link to comment
macguy67 Posted November 14, 2015 Share Posted November 14, 2015 Same for me too, runelaenen. I just want to make hell parks and destroy stuff because i'm bored. Link to comment
janisozaur Posted November 21, 2015 Share Posted November 21, 2015 (edited) I don't usually lurk in these forums, but I just noticed this thread. Please help out with https://github.com/OpenRCT2/OpenRCT2/pull/2285 I'm not too much concerned with packaging myself, regardless, I still made strides in that field and eventually, I'll have PPA working. My main concern for now is getting things working as good as they can, which implies I expect you to build from source for the time being, which is trivial. It shouldn't contain any more bugs than the windows version, there are few differences with regard to how things are set up and expected to work. It will spit out some more to stderr (compared to windows version) and will not have any messageboxes or dir selectors or other such sillyness, until someone implements that.
