loki installers
This is a discussion about loki installers in the Linux Games category; I was surfing the net and i came upon this thing called loki installers. Can any1 tell me what exactly does this do to enable games to run on linux and is this supposed to replace wine/winex or work with it?.

All these installers do is install the data from the windows CD.
In the case of games available natively like RTCW it will use code from wine project to install the game and it will then apply the point releases and patches.
In the case of farCry is it will install the game and the patches. But will require wine or wineX to work.
I have only tried the ¨call of duty¨ one, but it works perfectly with wine.
I do run farCry with wine but I had to install on a windows machine and copy over. (PIA) Since my retail version is the spanish one.
