WhiteTreePaladin Posted December 31, 2016 Share Posted December 31, 2016 (edited) As far as I am aware, there are no prepackaged installers for Linux versions. If you install 0 A.D. from Ubuntu's package manager, you will get the 0 A.D. release that was current at that time. If you are using 16.04, I would guess that you would probably get Alpha 19, but you would have to check it to make sure. If you really want to get a certain version of 0 A.D. on a current version of Ubuntu, then you will need to checkout source code at the desired revision and compile the code. If you have not done this before, then it will probably take a bit of research. Here are the instructions for how to build 0 A.D.: http://trac.wildfiregames.com/wiki/BuildInstructions It will default to the latest changes when you first get the code, so you will have to manually change your revision to Alpha 18. I don't know which revision that is, but someone here can find that out for you if you succeed in getting the code checked out. As a side note, Moddb provides links to older versions of 0 A.D. for Windows and Mac here: http://www.moddb.com/games/0-ad/downloads/ Edited December 31, 2016 by WhiteTreePaladin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
feneur Posted January 1, 2017 Share Posted January 1, 2017 Or one can download the relevant unix-build and unix-data files from here: http://releases.wildfiregames.com/ They are named after the release they are related to. You would still have to follow the build instructions linked to above, but at least this way you won't have to search for the exact version. (Or learn how to use SVN for that matter ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhiteTreePaladin Posted January 1, 2017 Share Posted January 1, 2017 Oh, nice. Didn't know you could do that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hurvajz Posted January 2, 2017 Author Share Posted January 2, 2017 (edited) Iam using Xubuntu 14.04.2 and from package manager I get 0 A.D. 21. But thanks, I will try some of these options you've said. Edited January 2, 2017 by hurvajz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhiteTreePaladin Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 (edited) Alpha 21 wasn't released until this year. Looks like the point releases of the Ubuntu long-term releases provide more than just security updates (although I would have thought you would have needed 14.04.4 to reach this past spring.)
