AtWar is now working on Linux with Pipelight

Hi folks,

thought I'd let anybody that's interested know, that atWar is now running on linux using Pipelight, a browser plugin whichs loads the original Windows Silverlight in the background and displays that in the browser window.

I tested it on arch linux, should also run with ubuntu.

PS: Still have to use an user agent switcher, because otherwise the game does not load.

That is some awesome news! Thanks for letting us know.

10/10 man, I know a lot of people who'll love to hear this.

WOW I NEEDED THAT LIkE 2 MONTH AGO

Do this mean it work on android tablets?

Android is in fact a Linux-based operating system. The Android uses the Linux kernel -- the core. The Linux kernel does little more than handle Input/Output, file system and drivers. It does this really well, of course. But it is not a complete system, just a core of a system. BSD, OS X and Windows are complete systems.

Other than that though, the software stack in an Android device is completely different. So no, you won't be seeing AW on Android anytime soon.

I don't care about that, all i wanna see is it work on my I pad, why because it would be awsome to use not have to rely on a mouse and the i pads have better internet, wich = no lag

edit: how does the linux system work?

I know the thread hasnt had much activity recently but im using Ubuntu 12.04 and installed pipelight and first time clicking play to start the game it said at the top of my browser (chrome) do i want to run the plugin and i accepted it. It had 2 dots appear on screen then go away then the screen just sits black, any ideas?

I've experienced problems with Pipelight on linux as well.

My advice is to talk to some techy.

Good, I'll sooner lick dog poop then use Windows 8.

Linux > Mac > Windows

It used to work on Moonlight, although, I don't know what happened with that project.

IM GOING TO CREATE MAPS!

This is OP, i know a shit ton of people who'll love this.
