Under WineX the resulting DB programs MAY work in SOME cases, but is very far from being 100%. DBPro even less so.

Cheers,

DarkBASIC Pro uses the DirectX Graphics API which is not natively available in Linux. If you are interested in developing games for Linux then your only really option will be BlitzMAX (not available yet and release date unknown), which although a rival product to DBP, does include compilers for Linux and MacOS.

NOBODY has a forum name as stupid as Darth Shader. I do.
