Xonotic is a free first-person shooter game for Linux, Windows and Mac OS X. The Xonotic project started as a fork of Nexuiz, a game which was popular for many years on Linux. The fork was created because Nexuiz was licensed to IllFonic game studios, and it is to be used as a platform for developing a commercial game for Steam, Xbox and PlayStation.

Well, some of us [despite PS3/XBox/Wii/PC games] do still like & love Linux games (or am I the only one?). Maybe it's time to have a Games Corner on our forum Cool. What do you think guys?

Yeaj, agree on that. But at the moment I think it's not a priority. Another notch on the to do list?

Let's unite.

For those of you who like to use Steam on Linux I'm working on an article for installing steam on PCLinuxOS in the valve developers community. I'm swamped most of the time and have only just begun to wright how to install steam, not to mention I haven't been able to wright any on the solutions for problems yet. You can view the wiki page here: http://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Steam_on_PCLinuxOS

Until I can fined a more suitable spot to wright down tutorials/help on steam I'm going to try and put it all on the wiki. Hopefully it can eventually be deleted, because Valve releases Steam for Linux... But that's wishful thinking...

In an attempt to help bolster the Gaming community here I'm going through all the current games in the repos and verifying all work and are up-to-date. Some date all the way back to 2007 and there are a lot of games. Needless to say this can take a long time, so I'm compiling a list as I go one by one through them.

If anyone feels like helping or just wants to report on the games they have installed please let me know. I will most likely use Google docs for sharing purposes. This will also allow us to easily use this information we have gained about the games easily in articles for the magazine. When updating games I will be attempting to gather detailed information about the game too. I just installed 2GB worth of games and this should keep me busy for a while haha!

I will also attempt to search the internet for possible additions, so again if you have anything you want to contribute to my list please let me know.

-Thank You

Not sure Crow.  I download the file and I get an executable named HoNClient-2.1.10.sh.  Running it gets no results for me.  Is there an rpm for the client?

I downloaded it just now and tried to start the installer.

[root@AMD64 TEST]# sh HoNClient-2.1.10.sh
156244+0 records in
305+1 records out
156244 bytes (156 kB) copied, 0.0791864 s, 2.0 MB/s
HoNClient-2.1.10.sh: line 17: ./HoNClient-2.1.10.sh-bin: Permission denied
[root@AMD64 TEST]# ls -l HoNClient-2.1.10.sh
-rwxrwxr-x 1 darrel darrel 675761901 Nov 13 17:26 HoNClient-2.1.10.sh*
[root@AMD64 TEST]#

This is what's in the file, beginning with line #17 and ending at the beginning of the ELF executable.

rm "$BINARY"
exit 0

Run this command in the game installer folder:

Code:
chmod +x ./HoNClient-2.1.10.sh-bin

Try re-runing the sh file.

Never played games before, but I have become totally hooked on Nexuiz and Sauerbraten.
I am now going to follow up mrreallity13's link and have a go at downloading and installing Regnum.
Looks like good fun.

Games Corner YAH!!

UPDATE

Regnum downloaded and installed with no problems. It even created it's own desktop icon.
Nice graphics and working fine, now all I have to do is figure out how to play it.

That's just it, Andy. The file doesn't exist.
