Download Game
Before downloading and playing the game:
• PLEASE READ THE LICENSE. - Playing the game means that you agreed with all the stuff there. The license is written in plain english, not in lawyers language, so it should be easily understood.
• GAME INTERFACE
• GAME COMMANDS
• GAME MANUAL
Most of the information contained in the above links is pretty important and will help you start the game easier.
• Also, please make sure you have a harware accelerated video card, with at least 32 MB of video memory, that supports at least OpenGL 1.2 natively. Voodoo 1&2 cards won't work.
Some of the video cards that work properly are TNT 2 and higher (GF,GF2&3&4), and the ATI Radeon cards. Some SiS, Voodoo 3, Intel and S3 Twister cards are also OK, but don't expect more than 15 FPS if you have one of those.
• If your computer is older than 5 years, and you don't have one of the aforementioned video cards, don't download the game, most likely it won't work on your computer.
Sound: The sound is an optional package, of 40MB. If you like the game, the sound will make it much better, so you are advised to download the sound package, which is the same for all the operating systems.
After you finished downloading it, you will need to unzip it in the directory/folder where you installed the game, in such a way so that you will have a /sound directory in there.
The sound is disabled by default in the client, so after you downloaded and installed the sound, you will have to go in the Options window of the game and enable the sound.
You can download the sound package from here:
el_sound_150.zip
To play on Windows:
Download the game, then simply execute el_160_install.exe
To download the Windows version (30 MB), please chose one of the available mirrors (it doesn't matter which one). If your download speed is too low, you can try a different mirror.
• Windows Version HTTP (US Mirror)
And another mirror, from Softpedia:
To play on Macintosh:
Go here: Macintosh Version and follow the instructions.
To play on Linux:
Download the zip file, and unzip it.
cd to the directory where you installed it.
chmod to 775 install.sh and execute it
There are two .bin files, on for 32b and the other for 64b. Depending on your platform, chmod the binary to 775, and execute it.
edit el.ini and change datadir to where you unzip everything
Also, the zip file has no base directory, so you should unzip it in a new
directory you create.
To play under FreeBSD, download the Linux version, download the code from the CVS, and use the freebsd make file.
