MrMorden Posted December 4, 2005 Report Share Posted December 4, 2005 Well, there's bad news, then good news and then more bad news. The bad news is that Anararcy Online doesn't have a Linux client, which means that it won't work out of the box. The good news is that Anarchy Online is an officially supported title for Cedega, a program that is meant to run Windows games on Linux. The more bad news is that, despite it's status as "officially supported," there is still some chance (pretty small since it's playability rating is 4 out of five, and the "Unnoficial TransGaming wiki" says that the game works with no problems) that you won't be able to get it to run on your system. Furthermore, unlike Linux, Cedega is not free software, so you will have to pay for it. The price is $15 for the first three months, and $5 for every month afterwards. The $5/month is the cost you pay for upgrades; canceling your Cedgea membership will not break Cedega. Your chances are better if you have an nVidia graphics card instead of an ATI card, since nVidia's Linux drivers are orders of magnitude better. Here are some useful resources: http://www.transgaming.com http://www.transgaming.org http://cedegawiki.sweetleafstudios.com/wiki/Anarchy_Online Hope this helps!
