similar to: WoW - WotLK - install is a hassle :(

With the recent release of the WotLK Beta, after running the installer and scrolling all the way through the EULA, the Accept button remains grayed out. The game works fine, if you were to install it on a Windows partition and then copy it over you would be able to execute the game. Even though this is just a Beta it would prob be a good idea to start working on how to fix this because more and

1. I am using the latest version of Wine on the G-OS distribution of Debain Linux 2. OK I read the thread on installing WOTLK -so don't ask if I have (please :) ) 3. I went the Blizzard downloader rout and installed via the internet because mounting and unmounting and the rest of the steps are confusing lets be honest. 4. It (The Installer) gets to the End User Agreement and I scroll down as

After upgrading to a Club 3D Radeon 5770 overclocked edition i was finally able to get some good fps out of wow... 90 => 110 FPS in Stanglethorn Vale with all the graphics option to their lowest setting possible. However last night the game installed patch 3.3.0 => 3.3.2.... Afer doing that upgrade the game actually runs at about 60 FPS now if i am lucky.... Mostly when i walk around the

Hey guys, new registree here. I'm having a big problem installing world of warcraft, so I thought I would try and see if you guys have come across the same issue. Basically, I just recently installed Suse 11.1, running a quad core i7 920, i7 x58 mobo, gts 250 gfx card. [this problem has happened to me on ubuntu as well]. Everytime I try to install WoW, it seems to be going fine until it gets

I've been trying to open up multiple instances of WoW under Wine for a while now... I can get two copies open at once without a problem, but I run into issues when I try to open a third. Some background: I'm running each one from a separate install, not trying to open them all from the same folder. I'm using Wine 1.1.2, and the latest binary nVidia drivers (173.14.12). I've

Hi all, I have been searching high and low for an answer to my problem however I can not seem to find it and similar bug fixes do not help. Whenever I run wineconsole/wine on the Installer.exe file for Wrath of the lich king it gets to the EULA screen (and before you say get the dll's) promptly crashes. There error message is posted below. Any ideas on how to fix? Code:

Hello, The WoW 4.0 Cataclysm patch landed today, and there's bound to be lots of questions about getting it running in wine. My current status is that I've downloaded the patch and installed it. I've got the new (original WoW) login screen graphic. Once I login, I see a new character background and then a "downloading update" message. Wine crashes moments later.

Latest Wine version, Debian Lenny, fast computer. The previous pre-patch download finally finished (300+ MB in about 4 hours. The current one (about same size) stops at 72% (273 MB). I have "Don't throttle download" checked. Also "peer-to-peer transfer". That sounds like some kind of bit torrent. I don't use that. Because this process appears to be done in Wine, does

hi, i finally could play wow on my ubuntu, but the cursor is to slow, exist any form to improve that?? and exist any way to optimized fps??

wine-1.3.29 There's a small update to World of Warcraft today. When I run launcher.exe under Wine, it keeps crashing. I read on this forum that doing "winetricks ie7" would solve the problem, but at the end of installing IE7, the setup program says: Setup was unable to install the latest Windows Internet Explorer updates. After you restart your computer....etc. etc. It gives me

Hi, some time ago i've installed WoW in Ubuntu 9.10 using wine 1.1.42 (wine1.2 ubuntu package). Everything fine, had a few fps problems but with some tips found in wowwiki i've manage to increase fps to about 20. Some users would say it's still low, but i was happy with it. Well, some weeks ago i've updated to Ubuntu lucid (10.04). It's great, but my WoW fps drop down to about

I've run across the following two articles on the wow wiki. The first link is the general page for Linux/Wine. The sound and voice chat is what I'm most interested in about the second link. Can anyone comment on how current and useful these tips are? It's nice to know that Blizzard knows about and actually seems to "care" about Linux users, but I really do NOT want to break

I am admittedly very computer stupid. However, I do have wine installed and I have downloaded the World of Warcraft package to install. When I double click on the wowinstall icon, it pulls up wine, no problem. I select the WotLK program (have also tried just plain WoW and BC), select install, select English, select OK. I scroll to the bottom of the terms of use and the "Agree" button

I just installed Ubuntu for the first time yesterday, so I'm still pretty much a total noob. I installed Wine and got the other programs that I needed. Everything went smoothly. I installed World of Warcraft and Burning Crusade. Those installed fine. When I put in the WotLK disc, however, it says, "Access Denied." I also tried downloading it from the WoW website. It downloaded for

I'm not really sure what the problem is or how to report it. It likely affects each individual game downloader application regardless of the game. Anyway, the problem is that when you register a CD-Key or buy a digital copy of a game from the Blizzard store, they give you a P2P downloader app. Someone on the forums said it has some of your account information embedded in it to authorize

Hello everyone:) I have a problem running Wow on wine (ver.1.1.16). When I install wine and run Wow from my Windows's partition, it's running but FPS is very low (about 10 fps).
