1228 Freeciv games -1 Freeciv This Game is great I wish more games of this art come for linux 1999-08-14 20:06:05 0
1229 Glasteroids games -1 Glasteroids They work for me... 1999-08-14 21:13:51 0
1230 Myth II: Soulblighter demo games -1 Myth II: Soulblighte Killer! It runs like a champ my Debian 2.1 system. This game is very bit a slick and "commercial" as Windoze stuff. I burned a copy of the demo to a CD and play it directly from there, so it doesn't even take up any harddrive space. I was also immediately compelled to pre-order a copy of the game direct from Loki. 1999-08-15 06:29:06 0
1231 Anachronism games -1 Anachronism Compiles fine in Suse 6.1 (except that the egcs version is harcoded ?!). I like the game - quite fun to play and the characters are nicely set up - but gameplay is real slow on my 300 MHz; you dont really know where the crude graphics burn up that may cycles. 1999-08-15 08:40:33 0
1232 Quake 3 Arena games -1 Quake 3 Arena Joakal is no doubt not running the game with the right options. The script I use is: #!/bin/bash cd /usr/local/games/q3test export MESA_GLX_FX=fullscreen ./linuxquake3 +set r_glDriver libMesaVoodooGL.so.3.1 +set in_dgamouse 0 In particular, you MUST do the export MESA_GLX_FX or you'll get one frame per second in a window, and you have to use in_dgamouse 0 or you'll just wind up with a corrupted desktop. I play this on my PII400 with a Voodoo3 and on my P166MMX with a Voodoo 1, it works great and is quite playable on the slower machine. I run the server on an old P90 (in dedicated mode of course, no graphics) and no problems there either. 2000-03-17 16:16:08 0
1233 Glasteroids games -1 Glasteroids I had to add -lXi under linux and get rid of some of the .h file dependancies in order to build. 1999-08-15 15:52:45 0
1234 Glasteroids games 53 Glasteroids Takes a little Makefile knowledge to get it compiled, but it runs very nice and looks good. The best Asteroids game I've ever played (cuz I hate all the others :) After some development, it will be great! -- jason 1999-08-15 20:22:52 0
1235 Quake 3 Arena games -1 Quake 3 Arena To all those complaining about only 3DfX being supported, just hold your horses. People are hard at work trying to make 3D happen on a LOT of chipsets. While the current NVida drivers aren't QUITE fast enough for Q3, the support when XFree86 4.0 comes out the support should be more than fast enough. Also of note, the Matrox driver support is shaping up and while it's still pretty much a developer release, G200 performance is nearly in the ballpark for Q3 and I suspect that we'll be seeing G200/G400 support in GLX/Mesa by the time Q3 ships. That's just the open-source efforts. Precision Insight at Linux World Expo intimated that there were QUITE a few companies looking to jump on board in some manner and that we should be looking out for support for many if not all the real players in the 3D game soon. 2000-03-17 16:16:08 0
