Well, that seems like a big F.U. to those of us playing in Linux for years who've spent a fair amount of their RL money in this game over the years. I guess I'll go find another focus too then...

kidi 22 Posted August 7 Somehow i managed to break the update process by running two clients side by side (OTW and regular). Now there are multiple files located in the %temp% folder, which block the updater. In order to fix it i have to kill them manually. You can add that fix to your updater (if for some reason those files are in the temp folder - delete them and only then proceed with an update process). 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mc jac 0 Posted August 13 Hey, my current problem is that I can get to the login screen in-game, but when i input my login information I just get error code 8 (servers are down). The servers are definitely up during my attempts because my friend was playing the game at that time. I'm not aware of any GFAC popup ever appearing when installing or updating the game (I deleted the game, reinstalled with APB_Reloaded_Installer and also tried installing it via steam and I get the same error 8 in the game when trying to log in,,,,no GFAC installer ever pops up). On my other computer at another location where I have a different ISP I also cannot play the game. There I can't even launch the game, it refuses to update. Eventually I just get an error button instead of the start button in the launcher window. But I vaguely remember that at least there GFAC installation window popped-up.

Then again, I rarely buy anything and most players think I cheat, including nullsec and chiting, so I'm probably more of a leech than a customer.

They already said they wont give out players who gets banned. Next people will ask for general numbers of players who got banned. Then, can we believe the data? Endless No-Go from the community.

Well Matt did say he was considering posting Generic Stats.. ieNumber of Detections Identified / Sanctions Administered So nothing specific or identifying. As far as, "can we believe the Stats that are posted", that question was also raised in a previous post. My thoughts are that if we cannot trust LO providing accurate Stats, how can we trust that the patch notes are accurate. So many questions. Time for another AMA .... ?

SuperConker 8 Posted August 20 Here's another really bad issue with GFAC that needs to be addressed asap: Whenever you exit APB there is a lot of mouselag on the Windows Desktop that starts right after apb.exe has closed itself down (this mouselag only happens while the GFAC process is trying to close down). The mouse cursor will freeze completely, and won't let you move it at all for a few seconds whenever this happens. Sometimes the mouse cursor even get stuck permanently after quitting the game, requiring you to restart your whole computer (unplugging the mouse or trying a different USB port does not help, nor does connecting a different mouse). 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Linux OS's always had troubles with the games it is nothing new. What I dont understand is why dont you simply use hyper v? Simply make client based CentoOS or Windows, set your network parameters and you can have both systems pretty easily. Windows 11 are free like Linux distributions, there really shouldnt be any problem with it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

With Proton And Wine Most Games From The 2000s And Even New Ones Run Just Fine On Linux Sometimes Even Better Then On Windows Because Linux Doesn’t Hog Memory Like Windows Does. Valve Even Built The Steam Deck On Linux For A Reason. Hyper V Is Windows Only So That Doesn’t Really Help Someone Who Chooses Linux. I Could Run Windows In A VM On Linux But Gaming Works Way Better With Proton Then Virtualization. And Windows 11 Isn’t Really Free You Can Install It Unactivated But It’s Limited. Linux On The Other Hand Is Fully Free And Open Source With No Forced Updates Or Telemetry. For Me Linux Isn’t Just About Gaming It’s About Having A System That Works The Way I Want And Gaming Has Gotten Way Better On It In The Last Few Years.

By that i mean at every single linux distribution ever invented, from mandriva to centos to ubuntu or any one you saw fit. Hyper V is not only Windows Only because I am System Administrator and at college and at my work place we use whatever the f we want. By that I mean whatever the f we want. ANY Operational System EVER invented I can run it in my virtual machine after setting basic network settings or you can call it advanced system settings, I can do it all. I can run Windows 3.8 on my perfectly capable Windows 11 computer, I can run whatever the f ever was created as operation system to be runed. All i need to do is to set network system to my own please and it will work. WILL work. Also Hyper V is not Windows only its Windows SERVER only (with side effect to be added to newer Windows edition). So meaning you can install separate OS Windows server 2008 R2 and it will f work,. To install it go to f torrent or even 10 milliseconds of google search. Point is there is not f excuse for you to tell me you cant run it, because without any prior settings from the push of the button start to the end i need all in all maximum of 5 minutes with my internet speed download of 300mpbs. So stfu. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Am Gonna Be Straight Up Here Hyper V Still Runs On Top Of Windows So That Don’t Solve Anything For Me As A Linux User I Don’t Want Windows Running In The First Place If I Want Virtualization I Already Got KVM Or VirtualBox On Linux Without Needing Windows Eating My Resources Coming Back With “Stfu” Just Shows How Childish You’re Being About This If You Gonna Talk Big About System Admin Work Then Maybe Learn About Computers First Because Hyper V Still Depends On Windows To Even Run Not Everyone Wants To Use Windows And That’s Not An Excuse It’s Just The Truth And I’m Not Gonna Continue Replying To This Because You’re Just Wasting My Time And All You’ve Done Is Prove You’re An Idiot Looking For Attention Edited Friday at 11:41 PM by DTS_98 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So touchy arent we. My point is that via virtualization you and me know that you can virtualize windows machine on your precious linux with which you can solve your issue in mere instant. Your racist hatred against Windows is your own problem. You wont bound the world around you to fit your ideals, you adapt yourself to the world because you are nothing and nobody on this world, and world is not demanded to circle around you. You are bitching that you cant play APB knowing that you can simply make virtual machine with Windows just for purpose of playing apb if you already want to play apb so badly, instead forcing devs to make version of apb for linux.
