depends on what you are usually doing. just go for a dual-boot sytem.

Too bad he won't create a linux version. I just hope tzac wil improve with 2.0.

Downsides from TZAC
- Only works client side on windows
- Server side works only properly on linux
- I have dedicated server here at home on fiber optic, but i can't play at my own server because TZAC thinks i am playing on LAN! ( even if i connect to to WAN IP ). Everyone else can connect. Without TZAC or with PB everything is perfect.
- TZAC is unreliable.
- People get banned first and than get unbanned if they didn't cheat ( see aphesia )
- Only one guy in charge
- Support, just look forum on tzac site. It's miracle if you get a proper response.


But without tzac it would be even worse. It's a necessary evil.

Quote- Server side works only properly on linux

It's ironic, serverside works only on linux and client side on Windows don't you think?
And the serverside works on linux properly, but you can't connect to it if you are hosting your own server.

And there is a good reason people use Windows for gameservers, some gameservers work only on Windows. And some new released games only work first on Windows server. That should be the other way around.

easy ubuntu is 100x better than windows have more programs like irc or multi chat program (like Gadu-Gadu / Tlen in Poland) [Programs where you add friends and private real chat with them like in FaceB. But Tbh Ubuntu is hard on first look because sometimes you have to use comands but you can easy google it ;P. you have instaled already a lot of software
Sory for my bad Engrish :P but i hope you can easy understand this :]. if you need more infos reply or pm me

im on (k)ubuntu 11.10, but i also have a dualboot windows 7 for playing games. ubuntu doesnt really like the fact that i have two graphics cards (laptop, integrated and dedicated) and the 7200rpm hdd gets pretty warm, bc it doesnt really have an idle system or something. Also ive no idea how to make mouse acceleration/speed work properly with xinput.

Because of reasons like this, I'd suggest you properly partition your hdd (wubi is hella queer) and get a dual boot setup. For me, windows is mainly for running games, not only ET (and some specific software like MathCad, havent configured my virtual XP properly); and linux is for practically everything else. I even have unpartitioned space for at least two more distros (quadboot lol). I don't think complex games should really be made to run on ubuntu, theyre mostly designed with windows in mind, which handles all kinds of hardware way better; especially if you can simply get a multiple boot setup.

Wenn du nicht unbedingt 3D Spiele und vielleicht noch neuere dazu spielen willst, willkommen in der Linux Welt. Linux hat etliche Vorteile, aber auch einige Nachteile. Ganz andere Welt halt.

Wenn du umsteigen willst, mach dich schonmal mit der Bash bekannt. Ansonsten ist nicht unbedingt jegliche Hardware supportet, was manchmal problematisch sein kann.
Ubuntu ist der Zeit mit die beste Wahl für Einsteiger.

not rly impressive xD

i got like fedora 12 14 15 16 17 knopix ubuntu 10 but i got my own server in my garage xD ofc on linux <3 :D lame is that i cant boot fucking widnows coz like i said dont even have hardrive inside my pc and booting windows via server( without hardrive) is just impossible (fucked up OS). anyway i dont rly give a fuck since i am allowed by cb 2 play offis without tzac etc. go rulez :) anyway would be much better if there was tzac client for linux.
