Edited by: Snowcrash Winterheart2 on 23/12/2007 03:13:47 I think at the moment they're working on their hang over recovery plan; hey it's nearly Xmas :)
Although I'm kinda curious why a CCP dev is asking for debug information from the wine users... in the "does this mean CCP is going to go official with EVE under Wine support?" sort of way.

If looking at these forums, it seems there are still a lot of wine useres, which means a lot more bug reports. and wine-reports are important too because 1. cedega is very similar to wine and 2. there may be bugs in eve that just don't appear (or don't get noticed) on the windows version because the microsoft libs catches them silently, but cedega / wine may dont (for example, the windows version of open office was testet in wine, then they sent the some patches to the oo team, because some bugs really where oo bugs, but it just worked on the windows version. think undefined behaviour when making bad use of the api, on some implementations you are lucky, on others you're not). always good to fix those.

True enough, but they already have a "wine-a-like" in Transgaming, who one would hope are doing a full QA barrage before it hits the wild.
Wine's codebase is quite different from Cegeda's these days... as of right now... try making Cegeda do Trinity:Premium graphics to see how different.
So wine bug reports would only be good for looking in to wine related problems (or helping us lot help the poor Windows kids on their short bus... again).
Is CCP in a round-about way saying they're moving to officially support wine... because I ain't helping either Transgaming or Microsoft get their house in order.

Tiny question... why would anyone want to run EVE under Wine if there is a native client for Linux? (coming from someone who's never tried running EVE in Wine)
Thanks!

In terms of "what it does" Cegeda = Wine. Transgaming make Cegeda. There is no native Linux client for EVE.
I'll answer your question with a question though: Why would I stop using something that works and start using something that... doesn't work all that well?

Hope so, because even with a couple bounding box focusing issues in .9.52+Trinity Premium, wine is running it right now, and looking good.
The other thing that will be DAMN interesting to see is the fps on the "official client". Right now wine .9.52 is blowing the doors off of 'official' in both classic AND premium modes.
(I'm now getting 100fps+ in station with premium gfx as well as 40+FPS in space with the wine client.)

But where's the effort of your Transgaming-Friends, if you're still waiting until wine does support it at least somehow?! Imho until now it would been better to group up with the wine guys... copy protection: A class of methods for preventing incompetent pirates from stealing software and legitimate customers from using it.

For some reason, in Cedega I get pretty much double the FPS that wine gives me, most noticably outside stations. Wine is ~22 fps and jumpy. Cedega is ~35fps and smooth. This is with classic content. Wine doesn't like premium on my pc - got the same non-displaying large objects bug and giant station bounding box issue.
Either way, both wine and cedega 'work' with single and dual clients. Wine 'kinda works' with premium content, but most people have the invisible large object issue. Perhaps after the next wine release those bugs will be ironed out?
Very interested to see the cedega premium client too.
