Today I'll show you how looks and works Half-Life on Linux.

Game has been released while ago and some times ago Valve port it also to Linux (when Steam for Linux born). They make a semi-native port, because they use its own technology Valve toGL (Direct3D to OpenGL abstraction / translation layer). So we have a native Linux binary but they used translation layer.

This is good solution for old games (like HL or Team Fortress Classic) than WINE or similar technology.

Opis po Polsku:

Dzisiaj pokażę wam jak wygląda i działa natywna, legendarna gra Half-Life na Linuksie.
Gra została wydana już jakiś czas temu lecz dopiero od jakiegoś czasu Valve przygotowało jej port dla Linuksa. Gra jest w pół natywnej wersji dla Linuksa / SteamOS. Korzysta z technologii Valve toGL, która jest określana mianem Direct3D to OpenGL abstraction / transition layer.
