Scott Richmond Posted October 7, 2011 Share Posted October 7, 2011 Hey, I've got a friend who'd like to join me in a simple game project and he simply refuses to use Windows being a hardcore Linux fanboy. So, I come here asking - Does the latest LE2 engine run under linux? Anyone does so? Any complications, etc?

Canardia Posted October 7, 2011 Share Posted October 7, 2011 Editor does not work properly with wine, but the engine itself works fine. It's not supported official though, but nothing in life is anyway officially supported.

Scott Richmond Posted October 7, 2011 Author Share Posted October 7, 2011 Any documentation or examples? Can one just use the example code and compile? Can it be compiled under linux, or does it just RUN under linux?

Canardia Posted October 7, 2011 Share Posted October 7, 2011 You can compile with MinGW under Linux also. So everything must be run under wine. Native Linux GNU C++ does not work because there is only a windows DLL of the engine.

Scott Richmond Posted October 7, 2011 Author Share Posted October 7, 2011 So, the engine can run under wine but not native Linux? And to compile under Linux we need MinGW?
