In this guide, we'll walk you through the process of installing ClassiCube on Linux Mint 22. ClassiCube is an open-source reimplementation of Minecraft Classic, offering a nostalgic gaming experience for fans of the original Minecraft.
What is ClassiCube?
ClassiCube is a voxel-based game that recreates the classic Minecraft experience. It's lightweight, runs on a variety of platforms, and offers multiplayer functionality. This makes it an excellent choice for older hardware or for those who prefer the simplicity of early Minecraft versions.
Installation Process
We'll break down the installation into four main steps:
- Installing required packages
- Downloading ClassiCube
- Extracting the game files
- Creating an application launcher
Step 1: Installing Required Packages
ClassiCube requires the OpenAL library for audio functionality. We'll install this using the following command:
sudo apt install libopenal*
This command installs all packages related to OpenAL, ensuring we have all necessary components.
Step 2: Downloading ClassiCube
Next, we'll download the ClassiCube package using wget:
wget https://cdn.classicube.net/client/release/nix64/ClassiCube.tar.gz
This command downloads the 64-bit Linux version of ClassiCube from the official server.
Step 3: Extracting the Game
After downloading, we need to extract the contents of the tar.gz file:
tar -zxvf ClassiCube.tar.gz
This command extracts the ClassiCube files into the current directory.
Step 4: Creating an Application Launcher
To make launching ClassiCube more convenient, we'll create an application launcher using Linux Mint's built-in menu editor. This step is done graphically and allows you to start the game from your application menu.
Additional Tips
- If you encounter any issues with audio, ensure that your system's sound drivers are up to date.
- ClassiCube is highly customizable. Explore the in-game settings to tailor your experience.
- Join online servers to play with others and explore community-created worlds.
