Lol, nope, not trolling at all...

Who's trolling who at the end? xD

[thanoulas]

So, I've managed to make the launcher connect to the service (I'm now talking about pure wine, not my own launcher).
It downloads the game fine, extracts the files, and then tries to decompress something. I got an error decompressing, but maybe I can fix that with some winetrick.
I tried running the game after that, and it starts, but it complains that some files are missing (obviously)
I guess at this point the game would be playable if someone tried to install on bootcamp or parallels and move the needed files in the wrapper. But you all know, that's not good enough for me. I hope I'll find a solution today, if not, I'll upload the wrapper here for some help, hopefully someone can make it run properly

Trolling? Sure... I've been one of the beta luncher testers, 've been posting threads all around the net to gain some visibility to thanoulas work and it's been 2 months that I have a link to this thread in my signature, hoping that someone will eventually help finish this project.

Can I just be happy?

Sure, you can be happy.
But don't pull a "I WAS HERE BEFORE YOU" card, I was working with thanoulas on this before he even told anyone else about it, just FYI.

I am sorry I still trying to get used to this version of IPS boards.

[Nerve]

So I tried opening it and it didn't work. So i was setting up my dedicated server for tf2 and i had to download wine to install something. So i was just bored waiting for it to install and I thought to try to open tribes with wine. I got it completely open then it made me restart it and update. So i closed it and tried again. then it said at the bottom it was "updating another game"?!?! Then it had some pop-up saying Hi-Rez Studios Software is Updating.  and then boom like 5 error messages. I dont know if anyone else got this far into it but thanoulas or anyone else if you want me too i saved some pictures and i can post them. Hope the port is done soon. Good job tho!

[elitebetrayal]

why would you release this to only five people and not just to the public.

[moussaillon]

Because we own the Truth.
