Linux

[Soukyuu]

Hi, I am known as Michael D, Maintainer of FFXI and FFXIV in WINE for Linux (and Mac). We do have version 1 working in linux with good results. I can tell you that FFXI is the NUMBER ONE LINUX GAME ON WINE and that FFXIV has a good following. I would love to work with the dev's on what we have used to get everything working, but since i do not think that they will ever want to talk to me, you can just take a look at this

I am very much hoping to be in the 2.0 Beta as early as possible, so that we can work it out for linux as well. I personally use Kubuntu, because Ubuntu is just easy, and i like KDE.

we have it working in linux, and hope to make it even better.

WINE is extremely unreliable when it comes to network from my experience. For example, I just set everything up on ubuntu 12.04 and I am only getting network access when starting the program via command prompt, but not if I launch the exe directly.

And in case of ffxivboot, it fails it's version check no matter how I start it. It might be because I'm launching it from an NTFS partition, idk.
