It isn't really. If they were supporting it properly, linux would have native files to run instead of a wrapper like winex. Think UT and UT2003. It is perfectly capable to port these, using winex only has the benifit of emulating directx. OpenGL is native in linux, and it is in most OSes. Its understandable that a linux version wasn't released, its a niche market. Perhaps if they maybe released binaries for those who want them online, instead of totally releasing a new linux version a-la quake 3. Oh well, ill shut up now.
Heh... VALVe is so nice, supporting an unsupported platformShadow wrote..

Look at related stories. There have been lots of VAC updates, at least once a week in the last while. Thats not slow in my book. I think Valve is doing a good job, it must be a nuisence to keep VAC up, but they do it. Praise be to them.
D:
valve is too slow
but what ever helps
On a side note, i have the flu. Infact, why the hell am I on the computer :/Comment

what about plain old Wine for linux?Comment

i don't know much on that but my guess would be wine doesn't allow you to run openGL/direct x windows applications and wineX does. just a straight up uneducated pulled from my ass guess.Comment

No your right, WineX is 'made for gamers' and I believe WineX is not freeware anymore either. Grr. (If it ever was?)

Gnome is a GUI, I thought? Along with any Linux distro there are like 4 different GUIs and more you can get :P Wine is just a windows Emulator

Proving Linux geeks will never get away from the reaches of Windows! Mwa Ha ha!

Yes, Gnome is a Desktop Environment, similar to KDE except its pance :) Sorry im just a KDE fan. These Desktop Environments all run on the X windows system. This allows remote and local desktops with a bit of configuring.
Also, MikeJ, Wine just allows you to run bog standard windows programs, however it allows you to run OpenGL too. Still, as I said before, OpenGL is a cross platform graphics SDK. Basically that means nearly any OS can use it.
DirectX support comes with WineX, which, has to be subscription based because it contains a Microsoft technology, and Microsoft charge Transgaming fees to work with it. (afaik anyway).
lol im such a g33k.Comment

Ive come to the conclusion the only way to deal with ceaters when u come across a suspect is to demo them, BEFORE accusing as they may stop what they are doing.
Then casually mention (usually when a team mate says, u fucking cheat to them,) that accusations are not the way forward, demo and won/steam is the way forward and that you have been demoing them for some time already say it on all talk, it takes a few minutes, bu usually I have found most of the nub cheaters, (cowards most of em.) tend to leave the server within a round or two. Its best if u mention it just after observing them track througha wall, (if they are so naive or alternatively they have sped up and autshot in combat situation, u can tell when that happens)
The more experienced hackers tend to try and ride it out, but ultimately there is not the gulf in class between ure average player and your leet player that u may think.
Certainly, I consider myself barely average yet able to battle my way to top 4 players on my eam because whislt my reflexes are not the quickest, I make sure I give effort tot he game,(which is why I hate awp whores, the only reason I make no valid contribution to a round most often). So in most cases particularly 1.6 the 60 kills guy is a hacker, Iw as disgusted to find that on one server when I asked him to kick a hacker who i had a blatant demo of, he promptly disabled the ablility to look at the opposing team, adn insisted that i vote the player.! ( u cant do that from other side)
So playing on your average pub, and i try to play different servers all the time, I feel i have come to recognise the average skill level. There are not so many talented amazing players that can own whole teams consistently, particularly when the teams are made up of more average players. In other words hackers stick out like sore thumbs on most servers. its not to say that some poeple have pwning moments, IVe been 23/2 on a 1.6 server recently, I have also been 1/13 neither server had any obvious hackers, so everyone can have a shitty/great day.
I had alittle investigation of some haccker forums today for the first time in a wee while, Shockingly, These vac updates have made no dent in the many hacks available for some time now, let alone any new hacks. (though there are not many, ) In some ways i can see how the esp type hacks are not as bad as the full aimbot/gfx style hacks and its almost as if its a nub version of cs. The rest of the stuff out there, seemingly makes it worthless to play cs. I mean why play agame if the computer wil do it for you??? It doesnt make sense.
Shocked further to see that some of csnation members here have deemed it ok to name themselves after hacks. This either signifies that they made the hack,, or they use it, I doubt seriously that any decent morally minded player would think it cool to call themselves after a hack.
The bastards at cheater websites are boasting about 80 new members a day.
Cant the dude who hacked got frag fuck them up and do some thing useful????????
Hmm, im tired and dont think im explaining my self clearly but If anyone thinks they get what I am on about please enlighten us :PComment
