Game Question!


Hey, im a n00b with linux but i wanna learn it and as i play a few games this is something im going to ask at some point so i will just ask now.

Do i need to rip my Quake 3 CD to ISO do something to it then reburn so it works on Linux or do i just need some Linux Software line WineX 3 or Loki to make it install.

Thanks
w00t

No, you dont need to make another CD for linux to understand it.

All you need to do is do a search on the internet or look at Loki for the binary files. Then follow the installation directions. Also do a search on CD format standards so you wont be confused in the future.
