Linux version
« on: April 14, 2006, 06:04:10 pm »
When can we Linux users use the updater too update our versions? I want the exact date. That\'s becuase when I try too login, it says: You are not running the correct version for Planeshift on this server.

Well, I\'ve tried too update thrice, and it still won\'t let me in...

/me cries! Anyway, I\'m beginning too understand Linux. In not long, I\'ll actually modify Linux so I can run exe files! I got my uncle (the creator of Mandrakelinux) and my ganpa too help me. They\'re both master scripters =P (BTW, my uncle helped create Linux Ubuntu. Not mandrake =P)

@  the WTB poster: YAY! /me stops crying!

Why not run torrent tracker with it (torrent file link for 0.3.14b leads to 404)?

BitTorrent is bad. I tried it, and it takes 5 days too download a 900 mb file, when I can download the main file in about 30 minutes.


Took me 15 minutes downloading the normal PS Linux file. When I tried BT, it said it would be done in 5 hours.

But some have slower connection, and there\'s no difference for them, if they download from http/ftp or torrent.

Hey, I have both the updater AND the client, + the files, I have CHMOD\'ded it, so now I must wait for the mirrors too get updated.

You can get huge speeds with bittorrent. It all depends on how many people are seeding.

The problem is that the bittorrent file isn\'t hosted yet. Goto the downloads page a see for yourself.

Is the files ready for FTP yet? Linux, I mean.

So if I update with the updater, it won\'t work. If I download with BitTorrent, I can start playing as fast as I install, right?

Yeah. Updater mirrors will be up within a few hours I would think. But it may be quicker to get it from torrent. Whatever works for you.
