Hey Ive followed the instructions in the AppDB on how to setup team fortress 2, and after i did the preformence in menus improved, how ever i cannot still join any games. After loading completty finnished, just to send of into In-Game mode, it crashes. No error messages and steam freezes...

Anyone else notice that launching of games (CSS, HL2, etc.) from Steam appears to be foobar'd using the current SVN (wine-1.1.15-221-g79cc416)? I haven't had a chance to do _proper_ regression test yet, but a quick test of jumping back to 1.14 made things work again. Other games (tested with Anarchy Online) are working fine with the current SVN, so I'm supposing the bug is somehow

What is the current status of Steam games in Wine? Some people claim same or better performance than Windows and other say its much worse. At least with TF2, the game goes from great performance with decent settings in Windows, to barely playable with all settings on low in Wine. Can Steam games run well in Wine without having a machine so powerful it can overcome any software problems? Is there a

[1.3.13]-Valve's STEAM Games Do Not Work... Hi, I've mentioned this several times already and did not receive a response. (either it will be fixed or some work-around) I can't play many games when using Valve's STEAM client under current Wine 1.3.13 32bit using Ubuntu 10.10 64bit. If I run Wine full screen and run a game from STEAM I can't get the keyboard working (have to

Hi all, I'm running Ubuntu 10.10 with wine 1.2.2 and have a set of Bose Companion 5 USB speakers connected to my system. The speakers work fine in Ubuntu in every way, except for wine. In WineCFG the audio is configured to use ALSA, but the "Test Sound" always fails no matter what I set it to. I've read this is a known problem, so not a big deal. However, when playing Portal or

Hi guys! I was reading to the platinum games list and I noticed that many are accompanied by the "steam" label (i.e. day of defeat steam): what does that mean? Can't I use the normal game dvd to install the game? Sorry but I'm quite a wine noob! Thanks in advance!

I bought a new computer for myself, and installed Kubuntu on it. I installed Steam on it, bought the orange box, tried to run TF2, and it didn't work. When I started it up, t showed the VALVE logo and played their little jingle, showed the Source logo, then the screen went blank and nothing happened :x . It opened it in the Konsole (Terminal) and it gave me this when the screen (on the desktop

I've followed all the instructions on the appDB page, yet the Steam (new 2010 UI version) crashes after being shown for less than a second. here is the output of WINEDEBUG=warn+all: http://pastebin.com/T0K8w1Uv I'm running wine 1.1.44 compiled from source on ubuntu 10.04

Is it possible to run steam like normal, in gnome, and have the games it launches run in virtual desktop mode? I only particularly want this with Dead Space 2, as it has problems not running in VD mode.I have tried to set Steam.exe as non virtual desktop, and deadspace2.exe as virtual desktop, but it just launches DS2 in the gnome environment. tl;dr Can I have an app running in Gnome desktop

Latest 1.4rc5 Breaks Valve's STEAM Client ??? Hi, I installed Wine 1.4rc5 into my LinuxMint 12 KDE 64Bit Linux OS. I then installed Valve's STEAM client into Wine. When I log into STEAM, I receive an error and then it closes??? Backtrace is here: http://pastebin.com/iDxkehT5 It was working in Wine 1.4rc4. How do I install 1.4rc4 over 1.4rc5 so I can play STEAM ??? Thanks! Jesse

Lots of 3D games such as Team Fortress 2, Audiosurf or Stalker have very low performance in comparison to running on the same computer on Windows. What can I do to improve it? What developers have still to implement to fully support 3D rendering?

Did you tried to launch the game directly with Steam ? Tried to install d3dx9 with winetricks ? It's strange that you can play at this game because on Steam, the game will unlock only the 06/24/2011... : http://store.steampowered.com/app/21100/?l=english Illegal download or not, that is the question [Laughing]

ok i've waited a day with steam running and i've stoped and started steam many times and my games still don't show up in the "my games" tab. The same message still appears when i try to repurchase my games saying that the software i want to purchase is not offered in my area. could it be that steam is misreporting my location the the servers? im using ubuntu 8.04 and wine

Martin Otten did most of the work to get Speex up and running for our games about a month ago, and we just recently released it to the Steam beta. So far it appears to be working pretty well, and we're interested in doing more work using Speex going forward. I'd love to hear any feedback that people have using it, especially at the different quality settings. The information on how it

All, I am finally stumped enough by something to post in the forum! Basically whilst running a game through steam (either from steam itself or running the exe directly) I get 2 cursors. Now one of them is the one I would expect and works properly, however the second one is kinda anchored to the middle of the screen and looks like the gnome cursor. If you move your mouse, the middle cursor tries

Hi!When start game through steam or shortcut on desktop,game halt when push "launch" button, after 2-5 seconds and unreal logo becomes gray.In terminal i have "wine: Unhandled stack overflow at address 0x34c7a12 (thread 0044), starting debugger..." and no more.Close game with compulsory exit.Before that game start perfectly on wine 1.2 or wine 1.3,the problem has appeared
