Has anyone been able to get KQII to work on Linux

#1 Post by tyro » Mon Jun 28, 2004 5:12 pm

Hello,

Has anyone been able to get KQII (or I) to work with wine or winex? I would like to get this game to work on my Linux machine?

Thanks,
tyro

As far as I can tell from the AGS page, this program should run it. It even has screenshots of KQ2VGA running in Linux.

Thanks. I had seen those but for some reason I thought they were just for game development. I will try them out tonight when I get home.

I use Libranet, a Debian Based Distribution, an it looks like they supply allegro packages. I can't wait to get home and try it out!

This works with RedHat Fedora Core 2 (probably anything with Wine installed):

It's nice that you are trying to help out, but you should pay attention to the dates that messages are posted. This one is about 10 months old. It is unlikely that this person is still having a problem, or else he/she would have posted again since then.

Wow! I totally forgot about this. I ended up playing the game on Windows.

I will have to try this out (although it may take a while for me to get it all set up).

Do you think this would work properly for QFGII when it comes out? It would be completely awesome if it did.

Thank you very much, I appreciate it
