Rigs of Rods !

[MaximB]

Rigs of Rods is an advanced Truck/car/plane/boat simulator for GNU/Linux, windows and Mac OS's.
Several days ago a new version has been released - 0.34 which features a lot more trucks cars planes and bouts
It is closed source because the creator fears that a company like Microsoft with it's simulators will see the code and make something like it.

Would you be kind enough too post the directions on how a n00b would install this game under Ubuntu 7.10?

Thanks for your help!

Extract it

cd /into/the/folder
./RoR


If it complains about some libs, you need to install them via synaptic.

[kr00lplatinum]

Sorry, That doesn't really help a total n00b.

Could you post step by step what I'm supposed to do in the Terminal?

That would be most beneficial to me.

cd Desktop
tar jxfv RoR-linux-0.34.tar.bz2
cd RoR-linux-0.34
./RoR

Ok, that is just plain stupid. A proper Open-source license prevents this.
The true reason is: They want to either infect you with Spyware, viruses, rootkits and such stuff or they want to make all versions disfunction in the future and from then people will have to pay for it.
So called Freeware is only a trick to damage you, if they really want to give it away for free then they can easily open the source.
