Wine compatibility
As a fellow QA member was running a Gentoo Linux install on his primary computer, he decided to spend a little time giving the latest development version of MTA:SA a go on Wine. After having some initial trouble caused by an outdated version of Wine, he upgraded to the latest available snapshot (0.9.45) only to find out the MTA:SA build ran straight away without any problems or glitches so far!
I have to say we were quite amazed. So for all you *nix gamers out there:
All this was accomplished by using our own adapted MTA loader. So for all people that are still hestitating to migrate from Windows to Linux; you can safely do so now, MTA:SA should run like a dream.
