Source Code

Download from SourceForge (you need both files):

- tuxracer-0.61.tar.gz
- tuxracer-data-0.61.tar.gz

If you have trouble with those links, try these mirror sites (note that mirrors may not yet have the latest version):

- linux.tucows.com (US & International mirrors)
- ftp.dynup.net (Vancouver, Canada mirror)
- ftp.cfxweb.net

Installation instructions are contained in the manual.

Under Linux, we recommend compiling Tux Racer from source. However, you may already use a distribution that includes Tux Racer binaries, so check to see if your distribution includes Tux Racer packages.

Linux Binaries

RPMs

We have chosen not to provide RPM packages for Tux Racer at this time, due to the significant variation among distributions which use the RPM format. Some RPM-based distributions (Mandrake and Connectiva Linux, for example) already include Tux Racer packages; we suggest you use them if they are available.

Debian Packages (DEBs)

Tux Racer is now included in the woody branch of Debian GNU/Linux. If you are using unstable (woody), just run "apt-get install tuxracer" and the correct packages (and their dependencies) for your architecture will be installed.

Packages for Debian 2.2 (potato) are in preparation. In the meantime you can compile them yourself using tuxracer* from http://ftp.debian.org/debian/dists/unstable/main/source/games/.

Windows Binaries

Download from SourceForge or a mirror site (note that mirrors may not yet have the latest version):

- tuxracer-win32-0.61.zip (SourceForge)
- DemoNews (US mirror)
- 3DFiles.com (US & International mirrors)
- games.tucows.com (US & International mirrors)
- Total Demos (US mirror)
- www.4players.de (German mirror)

Installation instructions are contained in the manual.

Other Platforms

This section contains Tux Racer ports that have been created by others. These ports are untested and unsupported by Sunspire Studios; if you have problems with them please contact the creator of the port or the tuxracer-main mailing list.

Macintosh

Darrell Walisser has ported Tux Racer to the Macintosh. It's available here:

- Tux Racer 0.60.3 (Mac Port)

Please see the README file for known problems with this port.
