Torsion works?

Holy Cow! I was shocked at this, but it may be old hat to everyone here.
But for fun I decided to download Torsion and see if would work under wine.
Yep works like a charm!
I can't yet get the game running in 3D mode but I can debug scripts, and do everything I normally have to load windows for just to use Torsion.

Anyways heads up guys, Torsion works with Linux if you run it under wine :)

Dreamer

I think someone mentioned that to us before. It's not a great solution, but it's workable until we get a port complete. OSX is definitely gonna happen... Linux may or may not depending on availability of resources.

That's great news on the OS X version!
I actually just wandered around the website but the .exe download does me little good so I didn't look too closely.

Now I will,

Wow, that's great to hear, Tom. I can't wait...I use Torsion on my Intel Mac under WinXP to fiddle with my Windows build, but I'd love to use it on the OS X side as well.

I'll totally help you guys get a real Linux version of this going.
Just let me know what you need.
BTW updating my wine to 0.9.21 fixed the no 3D problem I was having.
Awesome work guys!
