I want a linux dedi server then I want a linux client. Have not wrote windows only code since 2011. I hear you. Its on my plate. No timeline

@jeremymmiller Wow, Linux client would definitely make my life easier. But is it even plausible? #notholdingmybreath #fingerscrossed

@TeroTurtiainen its possible but I long ways away if we can get to it.
 
I bought the game a few weeks ago and saw that there a not many servers online.
Now i know why, because there is no linux version of the server.
Hosting a game for a few friends will work on your local machine but more than 10 people will be too much.

I would love a server verson for linux.

Why ? I have run my room for 18 months.


My logic says as long as my box is fast enough and enough bandwidth I can host any number of drivers I want so don't spread mistruth please.

Yes I want one too .... BUT WHEN IT WILL BE READY :)
I have time ...
RFactor that is finished then yes dedicate linux
 
Linux tends to be more stable then Windows. I have dedicated linux server less then 5€ a month which is more then capable of running multiple rf2 servers. I'm still hesitating to buy rfactor 2 due the lack of support for linux servers.
 
Any further news on this? I'd prefer a linux box for a dedi as it's more stable and one can strip it back quite a bit to leave more resources for the actual server software.
 
I fiddled around with running the dedi using wine with decent results, but I think that was back in the double digit build days ;)

I know it's no replacement for a native Linux server, but it might help while ISI is working on other things.

Cheers, Uwe
 
Is that a real linux dedicated server or just a linux server with windows files running on wine?
I can't find the files for the linux dedicated server. Can anyone help me out please?

The "ISI Linux please test" server is currently hosted on a VMWare server I think, running wine 1.7.x compiled from source (usually the latest version) on CentOS 6. Let me know if you need any help setting up a similar environment.

I was actually hoping for Linux binaries/ Distro packages. Will we never get them?
