Posted March 5, 2015 Is there any talk of getting Wurm Online on to tablets?! Wurm Online for IPAD +1 So we can click 'continue' while in bed falling asleep Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 5, 2015 (edited) IPad/ios doesn't support Java, so I doubt any time soon. Some sort of remote desktop setup might work though and I think people have tried in the past. Edited March 5, 2015 by Lexika Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 5, 2015 ^ they have, it's been quite laggy and most reported only being able to stand in one spot queueing prayers or imping. It'll be a few years I imagine before any mobile devices that do support java and the graphics processing are advanced enough to handle Wurm. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 5, 2015 Doubt you'll ever see it natively, but as Lexika says, it's doable via VNC/RDP connections from tablet devices to your desktop. Only other option would be a Windows tablet like the Surface 3, which plays Wurm fairly acceptably, actually. Bear in mind the Surface 3 is a rather pricey, full windows x86 tablet, though. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Coming in at around $1300 for the 128gb model here, yeh they are pretty expensive. Maybe in a few years we will see some portable, wurm capable device for a reasonable price.

Posted March 5, 2015 Remote desktop app as others have mentioned. I used a few and they all lag somewhat. Pretty much only good for standing still actions such as pray and meditating and crafting. I wouldnt go pvp on one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 5, 2015 dont know what lag your on about when it comes to remote desktop really vnc and androidvnc 85% connectivity on a tenda Wireless N300 High Power Router (http://www.tendacn.com/tendacn/Product/show.aspx?productid=508) just a really really small delay but works perfectly fine for my 3 year old tablet Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 5, 2015 At least a 2-3 second delay which is not ideal for certain situations. I wouldnt call that a very good response. Plus the small chance to dc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 5, 2015 mine sits under 1 sec on average so still pretty good but ya if it was natively supported on tablets it be better but doubt that would happen any time soon be it ios or android 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 5, 2015 Hosted remote sessions are unplayable, but if you are connecting to your desktop only using the local network, it will be a reasonable experience. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
