Title: Installation on different OS
Post by: TMaekler on July 09, 2020, 11:36:47 AM
Hi,

I thought that someplace someone had written about how he installed Aurora in an emulator under a different OS. But I can't find anything on the forum. Does someone know where to find this?

Some people have gotten it to run under linux. Might search for that.

Huh. I wonder if anyone's gotten it to run on a Mac. Oughta be possible - but I really should avoid finding out, since this is my work computer and I need to (occasionally!) actually do work. :D

I can confirm that the game runs on macOS, you will need wine stable though.  No bugs seen so far, i think it froze up once.

Is there a possibility we get either an Android installer OR a way to make it work on mobile?

I seriously doubt the game would be playable on mobile even if it ran. Window resizing is not supported, and the game is designed to be played with multiple windows open spread across multiple (large) screens.

It also might not like touchscreen interfaces? I remember reading something about that.

If I recall that was the VB6 version.
