Liam @ GamingOnLinux 🐧🎮Dune: Awakening to get self-hosted servers, plus they're splitting PvE and PvP https://www.gamingonlinux.com/2026/04/dune-awakening-to-get-self-hosted-servers-plus-theyre-splitting-pve-and-pvp/
Wyrmlet@gamingonlinux pirate software is in shambles
V'ger@gamingonlinux Holy! I might actually try this game, when private servers are implemented. Great news that they chose this path.
Rasmus Lindegaard@gamingonlinux i love that they are opening self hosting. But:
"Please be advised that the initial setup for this first iteration of the feature is more technical than most other games and requires a computer running Microsoft Windows Pro with Hyper-V in order to run the servers in a Linux Virtual Machine (VM). "
As someone who does not run anything but Linux, this, admittedly seems a bit dumb.
"You must have a windows pro license to run this on Linux"
😵💫
Funky Captain 𓆏@rasmus91 Since it's a test version it makes sense that it wouldn't be optimal, probably close to matching the devs' workflow if I had to guess.
@ItsFunkyCaptain yeah, that's what i figure too.
It's just oddly specific to "make sure you're on windows so you can Linux this!"
