funny I thought weed was for Linux users...  anyways.  I believe it's just they haven't loaded the libraries needed for XP which im sure are easy enough to grab from a previous client.  ..
Wine is definitely for Linux users: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wine_(software)  :D
"Vote" for WinXP support too.

Not sure, but i think AW use only DX9?  AW:Survival work fine on XP SP3 with DX9
Yes XP is old OS but AW "engine" used by AW  (Torque 3D) is old too (like 5-7 years i AFAIK)  It get a good upgrade in server and network part last year, but client side (3d engine, visual effects, sound system, etc) is same and old. Doubt it really need/use new features not supported by XP.

Can anybody confirm AW:R use DX10 or any other new features not supported by XP? Or devs just forgot about XP at config and compiling stage  then prepare new client release ?
P.S.
Thanks for link to old forum - i think it is same initially.

Same here - seems AW after last big update not working on Win XP (with SP3) at all.
Some errors about it can not initialize  DirectX and suggestion to update it. But latest DX9 version is already installed and DX online setup (included with game package) show DX do not need any updates too.


P.S.
Is all old forums/posts/status etc complete deleted/wiped out? I play AW even in AW:Alpha and early versions AW:Survival and have few dozen post but now it forum shows me as just registered newbie with 1 post...
