    Re: Adventures while trying to install XConq

    Sorry it has taken me so long to reply to you but unfortunately I am no further forward. Tcl remains the issue. The version required by the game is different from that on the computer.

    Re: Adventures while trying to install XConq

    Thank you for your response and the explanation, which makes a lot of sense.

    It looks good https://www.sourceware.org/xconq/ but it's not in the Software Centre.

    [all variants] Linux equivalent of WinReminders?

    I have found the piece of software I was looking for:

    http://www.winreminders.com/

    It can send a reminder by e-mail.

    Is this another job for WINE or is there a Linux equivalent?

    Re: Text to Speech

    Thanks!

    I'll take a look.

    Presumably seeking "text-to-play" software is just a bit optimistic at the moment?!

    Re: Text to Speech

    Is there such a thing as text-to-dialogue software?

    The idea would be that the computer would give the different characters of a play different voices so that you could hear the conversation.

    3D game map editor

    Do any Linux games contain a 3D game map editor. I am actually looking for a terrain manager but a game might be an alternative source.

    Have just installed 9.10 where I was using 8.10 before and am having the same problem with Ogg Vorbis files. Still investigating.

    Re: Issues with a few WINE games.

    Thanks for your reply. At least I now know what the problem is.

    Given that some of the programs I want to try in Wine don't need 3D graphics I wonder if I should just remove the graphics card.

    Re: Issues with a few WINE games.

    I have the 64 bit version of Ubuntu 9.04 installed at the moment and experiments with Wine are bearing little resemblance to the results reported at WineHQ. Maybe I should try the 32 bit version?
