Quoting: Linuxeryes i edited the post now and downloaded and extracted but got even more confused

Yeah, so a binary Linux release is still on the TODO:

"In addition, a Flatpak/snap (or similar) package is planned for version 1.10, alleviating the need to manually compile the project. If you don’t want to compile the code, it might be better to use Windows for now or wait for version 1.10."

phew ok. well no i don't want to (or be able even) to compile anythin and no i dont want to use windows either for now or ever again :tongue:

edit: so i suppose we dumbasses just have to wait to get it run

Quoting: whizse

Quoting: Linuxerok so the packages here https://github.com/luciusDXL/TheForceEngine/releases/tag/v1.09.100 [External Link] are

TheForceEngine-v1.09.100.zip 7.8 MB 2023-02-16T19:55:02Z
Source code (zip) 2023-02-16T19:48:03Z
Source code (tar.gz)

but which one do i choose?? the top one is much smaller than the others? why is that? the size is also not indicated on the "source code" ones either? (but they are larger size) why is this? is it some sort of "light version" or what?

what exactly do i do with all this? :huh:

The first one is Windows binaries.

Sourced code almost always takes more space than a compiled binary.

(You are allowed to download the files and check yourself :wink: )

Quoting: Linuxerso can you actually get that achievement? if on board for 10 years?

That's just a graphic Liam's put together, I don't think Valve are doing anything to mark the occasion (but then we all know Valve don't mark the passage of time like most other people do... :wink: ).

ohh ok got it :happy:

Edit: i downloaded the TheForceEngine-v1.09.100.zip and there is an EXE file?? And no Linux .sh or anything? Now i'm even more confused. This is a Wine wrapper?

The world will never be perfect where everyone lives in harmony and there is sum mutual agreement... If you constantaly concentrate on "negative things" around and in social media, you become negative.

Sometimes it looks like the joy has been stripped away from some people because of all the media hassles and out of propoprtion dramatization etc. Becoming sum nannies for others "you can't do that you can't say that". Geez?

We're talkin about a game here! I'm thrilled to play this when its out :woot:
