BTH Posted March 27, 2007 Share Posted March 27, 2007 Wine or Cedega... Don't know if MTA works. Link to comment
Jani Posted March 27, 2007 Share Posted March 27, 2007 So far, attempts to get MTA:SA working under Wine have failed. Not sure about Cedega but I expect it will be the same. Link to comment
HouseMD Posted March 27, 2007 Author Share Posted March 27, 2007 but heh, I'll try it with cedega...seems to be the best on running GTA SA... Link to comment

RA Posted June 6, 2007 Share Posted June 6, 2007 I got the impression that due to the anti-cheat code, getting MTA DM to work on Linux (via WINE) would be next to impossible. This is pure speculation, but I believe that if it were possible to disable anti-cheat, DM would work fine in WINE. Link to comment
orappa Posted June 7, 2007 Share Posted June 7, 2007 There are two programs for Mac OS X called Parallels and VM Ware that both have a feature where you can take a Windows program and make the window appear in OS X *but* the program is actually running on XP. So you click the icon in the dock for the program and it will appear as if it's running in OS X when it actually isn't. Not sure how well it works with full-screen apps like games though. I'm pretty sure something like this could run MTA if it's available on Linux. Link to comment
delfick Posted July 1, 2007 Share Posted July 1, 2007 unfortunately not there is such a thing for linux (vmware, Xen, i thinks there's others) but they don't support 3d games yet... Link to comment
