Who knows maybe people will give more help towards Wine (maybe the humble guys should think about donating ;)).

Quoting: "Hamish, post: 4398, member: 6"The thing is Liam, aren't we beyond that stage these days? Especially from something like the Humble Indie Bundle?

I don't know how much good this will do, but I started a petition to protest the inclusion of a non-native game in a Humble Indie Bundle:
http://www.ipetitions.com/petition/hib-native/

Please add your signatures. It is worded in a very constructive way and it seemed like the most civil way to get our point across.

We can not sell out our values at this stage. Not when we have momentum.


Like I said I feel it is better than nothing, but not the ideal solution.

As far as I know no petition for Linux gaming has ever done anything?

The thing is though, if games that use it sell well, then hopefully you would think people in future would program with Linux in mind for a native version, after all this is a game that has been out for a while.

Tacking on wine support after is better than 0 support in my eyes, i don't have to mess with any configs still, it all installs for me just like it would natively.

Well I have to say....Limbo actually works very nicely even on integrated intel graphics for me i don't even need to use the nvidia chip :D

Quoting: "lfz, post: 4382"What's the problem with that? People put a lot of effort in Wine development just so that this kind of thing can happen and more games can be played on Linux. I particulary wish more developers would at least officialy support Wine instead of saying that porting for Linux is hard.

That being said, I read the thread and it seems that the game doesnt run as expected and that sux indeed, if they wanted to pull this out they should have at least put some effort in making it run flawlessly.


The point it is very very hard to get wine to run "flawlessly" due to the very nature of what it is doing.

One thing that bugs me about the game is that you have a move command and a move shoot command, I mean why in this day and age can an RTS game not move and shoot at the same time requiring two options? RTS games have had this capability for years. It's one thing that put me personally off about it.
