Tibia 10

The Tibia Client is the program you run to play Tibia. Speaking in general, a client is a computer system that accesses a (remote) service on another computer by some kind of network (see Wikipedia:Client (computing)).

The Tibia Client does the following:


 * Connect to the game server,
 * Show the situation in the game to you (as recieved from the game server),
 * Send your actions to the server.

The client contains not only the connection software, but also a graphics interface and some other data like images.

To get the Tibia Client, visit the download section on www.tibia.com.

System requirements
As mentioned in the official FAQ:


 * Windows 95/98/ME/XP/2000
 * DirectX 5 or later
 * Recommended:
 * CPU of 500 MHz or faster
 * 3D accelerated video graphics adapter

Though the client is complied for Windows, Linux users can play Tibia using Wine. If you would like to know how to do that, look here.

What data is stored on my computer?

 * 1) The client software (Tibia.exe)
 * 2) Some game data (e.g. images)
 * 3) Your map files (*.map)
 * 4) Your configuration

The map files are by far the most data, and their size grows as you explore the map.
