Does Badlion have any plans on supporting Linux/MacOS?
Last edited on 31 May 2017 - 07:20 AM by Mikpol
Hi, I'm interested in getting the Badlion client, however I am a Linux user and I have no plans on switching to Windows anytime soon for the reasons stated below:- My processor only supports Windows 10 which has major privacy issues
- I have absolutely no experience in Windows whatsoever
- I'm not ready to spend 60$ on an operating system I would use only to play a cube game, neither I am ready to download in illegal version.
With all that said, as far as I know the Badlion client runs on Java and doesn't use a new version of DX, in which case I don't understand what would prevent it's developers from not supporting Linux/MacOS, especially with their budget and ambition to make Minecraft a competitive game.

@Koknia, i tagged GBerry because he is one of the guys making the badlion client. We can't explain it, only head staff can. That is the reason i tagged him.Posted on 31 May 2017 - 08:27 AM
All good.Anyways I'm sorry to disappoint that you cannot use the Badlion Client on other operating systems. All of the low level programming that we have such as the anticheat and launcher itself are specifically designed for the Windows platform and would take a LOT of time/effort to port over to other operating systems.
There is a good guide here on using Windows 10 without privacy problems http://www.techrepublic.com/article/windows-10-violates-your-privacy-by-default-heres-how-you-can-protect-yourself/
