there's a fork of the serious engine that allows you to build it under ganoo+loonix
however building it is complete space magic and the instructions fuck up because WHO THE FUCK MADE THIS, THE CMAKELIST ISNT EVEN THERE, THEY DIDNT EVEN LIST THE DEPENDENCIES!
what!?
is it linux and free?
how is this possible?
He means free as in open source, not free beer.
I wanted free as in free bear and foss
are you trying to anger the stallgod with that?
Gratis != libre
if "free beer free" was the only free that mattered we might as well just play UT4 instead of Xonotic, but there's an important difference there.
Open Source != free, UT4 is open source but it certainly isn't free. There's even paid programs that are open source and aren't even free beer free (like many game engines).
You mean free as in libre or non proprietary
...
Free either means that it does not cost money to legally acquire, or that you are free to modify and redistribute it at your whim. Whether you can look at the code used to create it does not change either of those things, it can make it easier to modify but it won't change your legal right to redistribute it.
I can't take the source for Unreal Tournament 4, change some stuff, call it Schmunreal Schmournament and put it on a website for everyone to download because that code is copyrighted. I can however take the source for Xonotic and make a fork of it. This is a very important distinction.
...
guys what we really want is free as in every sense of the word.
ALL the frees.
if its foss but costs money, wtf
if it doesn't cost money but its not foss wtf
gotta be free and free and free and free in every way
you get it?
we want the free-est
