Hello EveryBody!
A important question to me and some friends : Will EiA be released under linux?

HOFFMANN Patrick

Patrick:

Unfortunately, JUST WINDOWS at this time. It's funny but about 30% of this engine was developed and tested on LINUX. I did this with much of the engine rules simply because worst case scenario, I might crash a session BUT not the box! I'd be scared to guess how much time this saved me??? Didn't write any graphics/UI code on LINUX since much of that code was DX centric and is not very portable to LINUX.

I guess we could take another look at this in a year after we've sold a hundred thousand copies after which, anything would be possible ... ???

Thank you

If you switch over from the Dark Side... and go OpenGL... I see linux ports a lot more... easier for MG
