    How about a Linux client also? The link just loops back to the main page........
     
  2. This is not a technical issue. The information states that it is for a windows operating system. You can always try to get an emulator to try it for Linux or do without.

    I would guess that you are a Windows user? There is a dedicated page for a Linux Client that just loops back to the main page, so I would "guess" that there will be a linux client at some time. I just would like a clarification. I have read the requirements & run the client in Windows---it just looks like a special implementation of Chrome---so "should" be available to both Mac & Linux users....I prefer to NOT use Windows unless I really need to...it is not my computing preference.
     
    bisphenol and -DefaultPlayer- like this.
  4. There is no "should" if they did not announce it. When they do have one, I am sure they will announce its availability, however. Since they did not announce the windows version until it was actually available for download, I would not get you hopes up for a Linux or Mac version until they say its there. But you said there is a dedicated page for one. Where is it?

    Well--it could be a detect from the browser substituting "Linux" in place of "Windows" when I look further at it. In any case, it looks like the "client" is just a custom chrome build...it uses pepperflash for the flash player. So--should, would or could are all subjective --- I pay cash just like you do, so if they want mine---

    The page is- https://us2.darkorbit.com/indexInternal.es?action=download So they are just substituting text in the "normal" download page.

  6. That link likely won't show it to me. Also I don't pay, I just play. At any rate, best of luck to you.
     
  7. It shows a Linux download for us linux users, but it just loop us back to main page, i guess you as a windows user can`t see it. Aaaanyways it was fun when we could play it too.
    SO LONG DARKORBIT!!!

    Well, I will miss DO---I played it for many years & will NOT "install" any "windows emulators" just to play it...so, most likely, So Long & thanks for the hours I did play.
