Hi all, Just looking for a quick sanity check. I was thinking of writing a plugin for rails to give rails developers a good way of using the new firefox 1.5/safari canvas tags. I was thinking of grabbing an existing ruby graphics library and modifying it so that it renders via the canvas tag.. So you could have link_to_remote pointing to controller actions that instead of returning

Hello, I'm new to the WineHQ forums and I am trying to play a massively multiplayer rpg called Endless Online. I've talked with a couple people on their IRC chat who told me that a lot more people were beginning to use wine to play this game. The one that told me this was using a port of wine for Mac OS X and I don't know if the others that this person referred to are using Linux or

I''ve just about finished up work on a plugin similar to acts_as_taggable, but for comments instead which would allow you to attach comments (possibly even a threaded discussion if conbined with acts_as_tree) to any object. Is there anyone that would be interested in it? I don''t want to go throug the trouble of finding some way to distribute it unless I know that there is a

Hello, I''m trying to figure out how I could implement fragment caching that expires every x amount of time. I thought of writing a runner script that would expire the cache and set it as a cron job, but that doesn''t really work because runner scripts act on models and not controllers. Does anybody have any ideas? Regards, -carl

Is there any chance that wine will run flatout2 in multiplayer mode? If I start multiplayer, it simply hangs..... But I'm told that flatout2 multiplayer runs fine in cedega ? Anyone knows a solution for wine? ( Singleplayer flatout 2 runs perfect in wine.)

I have installed Diablo 1 lately and found Wine can't load the game succesfully. I see a few frames of Blizzard's intro, then it freezes. With Cedega 4.0 it works pretty well> I played for a couple hours then found later I can't load my games back. Ain't that funny? It seems to be a menu problem. Another thing I noticed with Cedega is, multiplayer hangs really quick.

Hello. I have succeeded in getting Fallout Tactics and Age Of Empire II to start multiplayer games. To do so, I had to override dpnhpast for dplaysvr.exe. I wanted to play multiplayer games with a friend of mine, but on his machine wine doesn't even load dplaysvr.exe, so he cannot join multiplayer games. How can he enable dplaysvr.exe? Thanks. -- Fabrice DELENTE

I'm trying to run good old Baldurs gate 2 windows version on my new mac. I'm trying to get it work with wine since I do not got any windows copy available and I'm on a limited 26k internet so can't download anything at all.

Hello. I'm trying to run Age of Kings multiplayer that seems to run fine for several other users. I followed the instruction that says: To get multiplayer working for such games (at least those that use a DirectPlay version prior to 8), place the DLLs in this archive in Wine's windows/system32 directory, then add DLL overrides (native,builtin) for: dplayx, dpnet, dpnhpast and dpwsockx.

I'm trying to make Baldurs Gate II multiplayer working. I've used DLLs from archive on http://wiki.winehq.org/DirectPlayGames (and from my WinXP install). I've added DLL overrides (native,builtin) for: dplayx, dpnet, dpnhpast but the last: dpwsockx isn't on the list in winecfg.

My nephew was home last night and I couldn't play Starcraft with him because selecting UDP or IPX LAN games no longer works. When they're selected, a message box appears saying: Unable to initialize network provider I had the same issue in 0.9.11, 0.9.12, 0.9.13. I was able to play multiplayer LAN games previously, but I'm unable to say what version I was using at that time. I first

Does anyone know if there exists a Task Scheduler module in Ruby on Rails like in TurboGears below? http://www.turbogears.org/preview/docs/scheduler.html I''m using Ruby on Rails for a multiplayer online game and I want to set checks at regular intervals to see if users are still logged in etc. Thanks in advance -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hello! I was running Mandriva 3 weeks ago and I had installed Call of Duty 4, and it worked (with version 1.1.6) When Ubuntu Intrepid RC was out, I decided to install it over my Mandriva, and I also installed wine version 1.1.6, but it didn't work as on Mandriva! When launching multiplayer, CoD4 gives this error: Fastfile for zone 'code_post_gfx_mp' is corrupt or unreadable. I have

Hey! Hello, WineHQ. Signed up because I've hit the limits of my ability with CIDER. I'm using the CIDER version of Baldur's Gate 2 on my Macbook 10.5.8 and I've gotten the game to run fine in Single Player. Unfortunately, I'm unable to run it in multiplayer mode which is a favorite of mine. Normally one can run a multiplayer TCP/IP game in BG2 so they can import/export
