Though there is no official support of Linux, I heard that the game does run in WINE. Has any bench marking been done between Direct X and Open GL?

    Afaik when they updated the game to dx11 and added 64bit support they removed opengl support, thus removing linux compatibility. I'm not that knowledgeable about such things though. Would WINE allow the use of dx11? What is it about linux that excludes directx? Is it because it's a microsoft api?

    DX11 killed it for me. I haven't spent the time to try to get it working again.

    *sigh*

    Linux can't run dx11 smooth enough. There are some progress but it is too small for comfort gaming.
