I have two windows computers and a linux machine (Ubuntu). One of the windows laptops has an old graphics chip and so version 0.27 is unplayable on that machine. I want to be able to play 0ad in multiplayer with my family across all three computers, so I quickly and easily downgraded from 0.27 to 0.26 on the two windows machines.
0ad now works great for multiplayer on those two machines. Just one more to go!
However, the versions on all 3 computers must match and downgrading doesn't seem to be so easy on my Ubuntu machine. I downloaded/unpacked these files:
0ad-0.0.26-alpha-unix-build.tar.xz, 0ad-0.0.26-alpha-unix-data.tar.xz
but the instructions for building from these files are a mile long. Is there a way to get a package type installation for 0.26 on Ubuntu? I also tried flatpak, but that didn't work well.
Thanks in advance!
