"Linux is not good for games" ... Ha! Look at this great car racing game called VDrift. It has nothing to envy to any similar Windows project.
A video is worth a thousand words:
Installation
- Add the Playdeb repositories. The easiest way is by installing this package.
- Install the vdrift package: sudo apt-get install vdrift
- Let's play! 🙂
hello I have followed the steps to install this program (linux mint 11) but after adding the repositories and wanting to install it from the terminal it gives me the error: E the vdrift package could not be located, any idea why this could be? Thank you and keep on going
Surely because in that ppa there are no game packages for the ubuntu version you are using. Greetings! Paul.
That's why there are windows so they can take away a lot of wool if that's what you want
if linux opened to proprietary software, it would cease to be linux
Sure, since the community has the same resources as EA.
Obviously not, but that does not excuse us to be assholes and believe that we are very advanced in games. We are not and until Linux is open to proprietary software we will not be. Fortunately Ubuntu is already taking the first steps in this regard.
it doesn't work!
As the name indicates, to do drifting is very good, although I prefer the Speed Dreams, which is also in the same repository, 😉
I'm a phenomenon. Tell me what error you get when trying to run vdrift from a terminal to see if I can help you.
Cheers! Paul.
The following throws me
Reading package list ... Done
Creating dependency tree
Reading the status information ... Done
E: The vdrift package could not be found
Sure, because first you have to add the PlayDeb repositories. Look at step 1. You have to install a package that adds those repositories. Once done, you can install vdrift.
Cheers! Paul.
Let's face it, this game looks like Need for Speed 3 that came out like 10 years ago, if not more.
Didn't you see the F1 2011 video?
Wow! Very thick the F1 2011! 😛
After installing the package you must do a: sudo apt-get update to update the list of system packages.
