Linux Server

by Jace · in Torque 3D Professional · 10/02/2009 (7:19 am) · 7 replies

Is the build process for the linux server binary basically the same as it was for TGE/TSE? I am assuming a copy over of the source a quick one-two compile in the shell and life is good (quick one-two doesnt include the 4 hours to upload it =/)

So just asking before I use up my allotted bandwidth.

I don't believe there is any way currently to build a linux server for Torque 3D

Do you think it would be possible to use a TGEA linux server with T3D? Or has much of TNL changed?

There are some pre processor with linux in it may be this is something we may have access in future. Or already working but not documented.

I am keeping my fingers crossed. Until then Windows 2003 will haft to do.

Hoping at some point Linux Server becomes a bit of a priority for T3D. If you are going to be running dedicated servers it is the platform of choice. I believe there was some individuals working on and and even hints of perhaps interest from GG in pursueing it themselves. Hopefully something comes from it.

@Jace - out of the box TGEA doesn't run on Linux either as a dedicated server, only TGE has Linux dedicated server support.

The networking code is the same between all three engines that I have seen but far too much else has changed in the objects available and classes for TGE to work with it.
