Default running AC3D on a raspberry pi

Does anybody have experience doing this? I have a 4gb and an 8GB raspberry pi and I was hoping it will work. - J

Unless an Intel emulator has been developed, it won't work.


I did try a port of AC3D to R-Pi a while ago. The problem was the OpenGL version, which was the embedded version and not compatible with the (full) OpenGL AC3D uses.

Let me clarify, I see that AC3D now has a linux distribution. can I run that on a raspberry pi buster linux?

AC3D's Linux version is for Intel PC processors. Raspberry PIs use Arm chips and are therefore not compatible with Linux-Intel binaries. So, the answer is no.
