Not the best idea to put a windows xp server on the internet? big_smile
On a lan, maybe.

I don't remember if they ever released the source for the linux server. Newer ones I can find nowadays are just a binary blob .run file.

The dedicated server for bf1942 is native to linux, no?
I thought there was a native version for mac, too.

Seems I succeeded in luring you out of the water. smile

No offense about the first post, was just poking some fun at the oddity of it all. For some reason I thought you were actually this singaporean youtube guy, who seems to have a fetish for aliexpress parts.

When I tried this, wine's network stack on arm was more or less broken for this game. I suppose playonlinux fixed it somehow. Thanks for the pointer.

What a wacky looking cooler.. I might buy one. smile

Well, no, because it's feasible to shake a coffin. It would be mildly inconvenient since you'd have to buy a coffin first, but by then you can shake it like nicki minaj's hips.

On the other hand it's not really feasible to play bf1942 online on the raspi 4 with today's tooling.

By the slimmest chance that my callout triggers this fraud of a noob to learn to code and get bf1942 to actually work on arm, that would be a win? smile

There was a player with nick name "bf1942 on raspberry pi 4"  on simple server, last seen around 3am pst.

It is very much doubtful what this player claims to have achieved in that nick name, so I have to further question this player's motives. Was their goal to deceive other kind hearted players? Cheat others out of money?

Yes I am aware of box86 and other tools of the sort. No I don't believe for one second that a heavy x86 binary will run at playable speed on wine armhf with real time translation.  Even more doubtful that bf1942's hard coded net protocol works under this type of set up.

This is something that I have attempted to do with several arm boards over the years, raspi 3, 4, jetson nano, none have performed well and networking simply did not work with box86.

If you are on this forum, I'd like to see some proof. Otherwise I have no choice but to call you out as a fraud, who (shamefully) logged into simple server on your pc, with that dumbass fraudulent nick name of yours.

cheers
