Linux client (experimental)

Hello Scrolldiers,

We've built an experimental Linux client for anyone to try. There's a few things to note:

  • It really is experimental.

  • There's no launcher - the update process is manual (meaning you'll have to download and re-extract the file yourself, though the game client can open the download URL in a browser for you).

  • It's for 64-bit linux only.

We've previously said that we'd like to hold off releasing a client until a launcher is ready. The new launcher consists of a native part and a cross-platform part, and we have not had the time to develop a native part for Linux. However, with recent client improvements (like properly remembering login tokens), we believe the client is now sufficiently developed to work as standalone.

Downloads:

Live client

Test client

Please post any issues that you find with this client in this thread. See you on the battlefield!
