Hello everybody... My patch to add advanced d3d settings in winecfg is almost ready. In fact, i only have to figure out how to detect video memory size to display it when no key is set to force it or to reset. Stefan D told me to use DirectDraw, but i wouldn't find. So that is the last thing (except some better naming...) to do for this patch. Everything works well and i would like some

Hello!

I have a copy of the Sims installed on a Win2k FAT32 partition. I know for a fact that The Sims works under Wine (Mandrake's "Gamer" edition), but I get an error when I try to run it. The error is as follows: "Game cannot be started because: There is not enough memory or hard drive space to run. Exit now." I do have plenty of free space and plenty of memory. Does

Does anyone know of a package that includes the Modified Sims test [Gewerke, 1983, Sims, 1972]? This test is used in econometrics and is a kind of alternative to the Granger test [Granger, 1969], which is in the package lmtest. Thanks in advance, chris Refernces: Gewerke, J., R. Meese, and W.

Hello everybody. I'm a (quite) happy WINE user, but i would like to propose some things to the WINE developers. Something important imo, is that it must be easy to use for the user, and some things could be better, here are some ideas to improve it by using Winecfg: 1. Add an option to disable/enable/edit debug channels for all programs. As you may know, a lot of programs runs faster

I bought The Sims 3 today and it installed and ran perfectly. However I had to uninstall it for unrelated reasons and when I reinstalled it it wouldn't launch, wit hor without the nocd patch. I don't recall changing aything in the way of drivers or wine versions in that time so I'm at a complete loss as to what is going on. Any ideas?

Few months ago I asked here about Wine and Sims. Somebody told me it's impossible. Today on slashdot I read, that writer have seen Sims on Wine...

The problem with getting DRb to luanch on reboot is the same problem causing some people to ahve trouble getting mongrel clustersw to come back up on reboot. The problem is the PATH. ON many new RH distributions running SELinux, /usr/local/bin is not added to the PATH until reboot is complete. Therefore, those of having installed ruby in /usr/local/bin run in to issues.

http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=16664 As much as I am leaping for joy at the thought that i'll be able to play the Sims 3 without switching to Mac OS X or Windows, I have a question: 1. How would they know if the game works or not if it doesn't come out till July??? Also, I find it a bit of an oddity that The Sims 3 will work under Wine straight away when

Hi all, I just thought I'd stop in and voice a few thoughts concerns. I really enjoyed playing The Sims 2 and some of its expansion packs in Windows; it was one of my favorite games. I would truly love to see it working playably in WINE (there was a patch/mod that allowed it to start up, as I'm aware, but it wasn't very playable). I understand that it would be a large amount of

Hello. I'm currently using donet20 to run the sims 3 launcher. It is very laggy and flashes alot. I don't know if Mono will help or not, as I've tried it, but it doesn't seem to run when I try to open it. Any help? Has anyone gotten this to work close to flawlessly?
