Hello. I just bought ETQW, and downloaded the latest Linux client (1.4). I installed it, and tried to run the game, with rather limited success. Can anyone help me out with it?
Also, as a side note, while browsing the output, it said that the system qualifies for low quality - what prevents it from going higher up than that?
Code:
darkapostrophe@Liberty:~/.etqw$ ./etqw.x86
ETQW 1.4.12247.12247 linux-x86 Jan 4 2008 13:52:05

CPU: Intel CPU with MMX & SSE & SSE2 & SSE3

Rep:
And this is why I avoid using 64-bit OS's! Had a hell of a time getting common applications to work with my CentOS x64. I went back to 32-bit and things "just work".
Does ET:QW run well in Linux? Was thinking of getting it, but I played the demo in Windows Vista and I didn't enjoy it too much. I still like Enemy Territory better.
