ok now got rid of that pixbuf issue also
i had this loaders.cache on different place since i have 64bit system. made a symlink of it to i386-linux-gnu and the error is gone.
so its not affecting the segfault just to be sure...alltho it was expected.

its strange tho that the issue is linux mint only
cuz Mint is using the base of ubuntu packages just with few tweaks here and there

i dont care if it has wine wrapper or is native from the ground up, if i get the allmost same perf/graphics quality as under windows.
i ofc would prefer native anytime..but if the wrapper is made nicely then i dont complain much. and if i do like the game i buy it anyway.
i buy games that are for windows only also, which just work under wine well enaugh.
i dont mind using wine.

that would be epic.
i have been checking this games forums over 1 year allready.
and have been asking for possible linux client as well and they never stated that its impossible.
they have said it before that it might happen some time.


so we should gather our forces and maybe prepare for some greater thread in their forums to show that we are interested about it.


game itself seems tottaly the one i have been waiting for...judging from the alpha gameplay videos.

Windows Build of Force of Resistance is out
however i cant get it working under wine either...what a dissapointment. (complaining about cannot create dx9 device)
Dx9 and vcrun2010 is installed just like required for Cobalt, which runs great.

also i noticed that there is cgGL.dll in their game files..which means some of the openGL code is there allready probably.

lua yes but its their own engine, and they said in stream no for mac and linux at this point.
also their other game "Cobalt" doesnt have a Linux and Mac yet.
I hope they are were joking then... probably will run well in wine anyway(tho its not the same)... since Cobalt runs really good under wine.

too bad that oxeye game wont have linux build...at least what i heard of...but maybe they will do it later they said.
wolfire game looks promising ..but they have only 3 guys working on it..and 1 of them is just sound guy :)
but the early builds looking good so far..
