This is HPR Episode 2630 entitled Open Source Gaming, Revisiting Meridian 59.
|
|
It is hosted by the dude and is about 4 minutes long, and carries an explicit flag.
|
|
The summary is discussing the Steam release of Meridian 59 recorded before release.

Okay, the dude's here, and we're going to be talking about Meridian 59.
|
|
Well, anyway, it's getting a Steam release August 28th.
|
|
Obviously, this is going to be a release afterwards, but seems that according to Josh Rotunda,
|
|
who is the Meridian 59 systems admin, it's going to be released on Steam August 28th,
|
|
and this is going to be the original servers 101-10102.
|
|
However, players will have to go to the official website to create an account for 101-10102.
|
|
As noted on the storefront, but that is for now, I guess they are working on the system
|
|
for future updates to probably make it so that way you can create a character and account
|
|
from Steam.
|
|
I have to say that I'm extremely excited, especially since it's getting boost in the media
|
|
that are talking about the Steam release, and hopefully we get some new players to play
|
|
on Meridian 59 and Lynn.
|
|
Get the old PvP style back in the game right now, just PvE just because there's not
|
|
many people on, and with new people, hopefully, the exciting PvP that used to be in the
|
|
game can return.
|
|
Also, hopefully someone could also find a way to make it the game work with wine.
|
|
I tried getting Meridian 59, the original servers to work on Linux, and I'm able to log
|
|
in, just by using wine, I'm able to log in, I'm able to see what's in my inventory, my
|
|
health bars, and everything.
|
|
The only thing I can't see is the area where you venture through the world.
|
|
Your first perspective, that area, and the UI is black, it's just a black screen, and
|
|
there is why I say hopefully somebody because I can't, because I can't even really get
|
|
a tibia to run on Linux, and it's supposed to be able to run on Linux, and yes, I followed
|
|
the Google instructions and things still didn't work out, so hopefully somebody will be
|
|
able to do that, so that way Meridian 59 can work, pretty much perfectly on wine, or
|
|
be able to make a Linux client for the original servers, and hopefully have a video to show
|
|
you a step by step what to do, but anyway, I'm excited, and it's going to be interesting
|
|
to see what the results are, and I'm definitely looking forward to the comments to see what
|
|
were the results of the launch, but anyway, it's the dude signing off.
