Step 1: Downloading and Installing...

Click any one of these links dependant on which system you use. Trust me on this one, it helps.

Windows XP and Earlier: http://www.phunland.com/download/Phun_beta_4_22_win32.exe

Windows Vista: http://www.phunland.com/download/Phun_beta_4_22_win32.zip

Linux (Wonder how many people will click this?): http://www.phunland.com/download/Phun_beta_4_22_linux32.tar.bz2

Mac: http://www.phunland.com/download/Phun_beta_4_22.dmg

Once you have these downloaded, run and install them. It's incredibly self explanatory, so I won't bother with that. If there are any Technical fails check the phun site at: http://www.phun.at

wait... why dont i just download the windows version and use win, a windows emulator, to run it? it might work.

Ive been using phun for a while now. it got updated recently, and is so much better! I just got a tablet PC a few days ago, and its ten times better with it! you can actually DRAW objects and interact with them as if they were really there. all in all a great program, although I dont understand why your fruit launcher had to be so elaborate.
Zideeane (author) says: Sep 26, 2008. 2:04 PM
Yeh... First i had to make the barrel, simple. Then i made the fruit heavy, so i had to turn up the power, whilst preventing it fomr flying outwards... Then I made the top bit for the fruit to be stored in (An ammo clip, if you will), so mashing left and right repeatedly results in RAPID FIRE ACTION *Cough* Yeah, thats why it was elaborate ;p

I would be a slave if it weren't freaking slow, I've got 2.2 ghz and a gig of ram and it crawls.

Nevermind, it was conflicting with my antivirus. BTW there's a preload called "Wood Mechanics" had that on a test in dynamics, had to solve the relative accelerations, ugh!
