there is a possibility to run vegastrike INCREDIBLY FAST over the net, even FASTER, if the destination machine has a better graphics card than the source!
use virtualgl !
ok i never believed it that it worked but finally i got seamlessy run vegastrike on my mac!! with ogre window!!
here is how it works: assuming vegastrike is installed on a linux server with vgl, (windows maybe?) ip 192.168.1.102, (this is the server)
and you are in front of 192.168.1.105 (any mac, windows or linux client , this is the client)
1.: install ssh on the client and ssh server on the server.
2.: install virtualgl (http://www.virtualgl.org/) on the server and the client
3.: run xhost+ 192.168.1.105 on the server
4.: run ssh -X 192.168.1.102 on the client this opens a remote shell on the client in the server.
5.: open another terminal on the client and run vglclient
6.: run vglrun ./vegastrike on the remote shell in the client
enjoy!
