Torque on BSD

by Mike · in Technical Issues · 09/08/2004 (8:01 pm) · 5 replies

Has anyone managed to run Torque on FreeBSD or other *nix besides Linux? Or is anyone aware of any specific reasons why this would be impossible?

Thanks in advance ...

I would like to know this as well. Is anyone working on a port?

Just use the BSD Linux emulator kernel module and it should run just fine when compiled for Linux, that's how BSD users got Tribes 2 working for them.

I think there was a post a while back about someone compiling on BSD. It should be possible, but you'll probably need GNU make and may need a few small edits in the source.

I ported Torque to OpenBSD a long time ago. It didn't take more than 2 hours. Just like was suggested, use GNU Make and keep typing gmake and fixing things until it builds :)
