Good evening my fellow Linux enthusiasts, for some time now I've been trying to run "The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion" on WINE with very little success. I've gotten it to play but with no sound and very glitchy graphics. The various menus flicker wildly and the characters are messed up. A while ago I launched Oblivion from the terminal and here's what I got from it:

I have a similar problem. Some characters are see through, and random stuff jumps out, like to white lines when I draw out my fists right above the my fists. Gameplay is okay, with no lagging. Also, I can't install its patch for the North American English version. Is this a regression?

Hello! I'm considering to get Linux on my computer, and do you guys think it would be reasonable easy to start up skyrim at the release date without TOO much work? Does starcraft 2 run easily? Oblivion? and potentially DoTA2? I know it might be difficult to answer about the Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, but since I think you guys know your sh***. I thought you'd might have an idea :) Best

hi there, i'm trying to play oblivion, the game installs and run fine but there's still some minor problems. in nature (woods, mountains..), here and there, objects and texture seem to be missing.. kind of like if i used "noclip" and walking though objects.. so at time i can see though parts of a mountains, or run into a big rock , i cannot move forward any further but i cannot

Oblivion is hanging in when I'm going to load a game. It shows the following message on the terminal: Code: fernando at fernando-desktop:/mnt/fat32/Jogos/Oblivion$ wine Oblivion fixme:ntdll:find_reg_tz_info Can't find matching timezone information in the registry for bias 180, std (d/m/y): 21/02/2010, dlt (d/m/y): 17/10/2010 fixme:dsalsa:IDsDriverBufferImpl_SetVolumePan

I've been getting max 10 FPS in Oblivion, even with extremely low graphics settings. Any ideas why? I didn't have any problems with running Oblivion on Windows, and even for Wine this seems quite low. I think it might be my graphics card drivers possibly. OS: Ubuntu 9.10 Karmic GPU: nVidia 8600M GT CPU: Intel Core 2 Duo @ 2 GHz GPU Driver: Version 195 (I got it by going System ->

Im running Ubuntu 9.04 and the latest version of WINE. I can get the game open, It'll load. I'll choose new game. it'll load. I can watch the intro, but then after the intro, the screen just stays black and I'm not quite sure on how to fix that. any advice?

Hi I am having trouble with the setup of Oblivion 1. I copied my cd into an ISO file 2. I than transferred it to my computer 3. I used the command "mkdir /mnt/oblivion" 4. I used the command "mount -o loop -t iso9660 The.Elder.Scrolls.IV.Oblivion.ISO /mnt/oblivion" (it did tell me that the information was read-only) 5. I used "cd /mnt/oblivion" 6. "ls" it

I am trying very hard to get Elder scrolls oblivion working on playonlinux. I found out that a key factor in this is the GLSL setting. When it is disabled the game will run great with no errors except for the fact that the players charecter and npcs have horrible graphical glitches. To give you an example:[Image:

I've filed a bug in bugzilla (http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=24271) which explains a how Oblivion loses sound during the gameplay. However, I found a workaround to it, which I posted on comment http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=24271#c5 So I wish to rename this bug to "Oblivion loses sound during gameplay". Is it possible to rename a bug in bugzilla? Another question is:

I have tested wine-1.1.38 with Oblivion on Gentoo and I found that the sound effects are no more being played. I`m new to wine bugzilla and I don`t know a proper way to report bugs and regressions. Please if someone is able to report this bug or help me find a way to fix it, I will be glad.

Sadly this isn't one of the ones Winetricks has by itself, so you need to add it in and set the override manually in winecfg. Winetricks of d3dx9 will also get this along with many other dlls, and I tested it before and Oblivion

Hello all, I'm pretty much a newbie in linux, and I'm trying to play The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion on Linux Mint 12. I installed wine-1.2.3 according to the readme file (I hope). command: Code: wine ~/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/Bethesda\ Softworks/Oblivion/OblivionLauncher.exe gives: Code: err:wgl:opengl_error No OpenGL support compiled in. err:d3d_caps:WineD3D_CreateFakeGLContext

I only use wine for games so I'm DEFINETLY trying this out!

Greetings, during installation of Oblivion - Game of the Year Edition GOTY in German on wine-1.3.21 the installation asks for inserting Disc 0 with the file data3.cab. Well, there is no such data3.cab on the DVD. Workaround for me was booting to WinXP, installing Oblivion there, booting to Gentoo, mounting the WinXP partition and copying the directory Oblivion to a suitable place in ~/.wine.

I just switched to "Linux Mint KDE" and from what I have been reading, some Linux users are having some promising results with Playing Oblivion IV. So far I have the newest Wine installed and Oblivion with the Oblivion_v1.2.0416English patch... So a few problems! Under the Applications Tab under Wine, there is a windows folder that says "Brows C: Drive" When I click on it,

Hi there dear Wine fanatics^^ I recently moved to Linux(kubuntu 8.10) and am using Wine for playing now. Everything works really well thanks to my tweaking. There is however one bug I couldn't solve myself, that are the fonts in Oblivion: [Image: http://img228.imageshack.us/img228/2084/bugk.jpg ] As you can see, I ran Oblivion in a virtual Desktop, the menu has some broken colours on its

I run setup.exe but nothing happens. Its listed in the process tree so it is running. Any ideas? All evidence lead em to believe that Oblivion ran well under WINE. I don't have directx installed and im using the game of the year edition.

Hi there, I've been trying to play The Elder Scrolls: Oblivion under Linux. But under WINE performance is horrible. 640 x 480 minimum settings, and I'm getting about 4 FPS. The game runes maxed out at 1680 x 1050 with 4xAA all settings to maximum smooth on Windows. Wine 1.1.6 Ubuntu 8.10 Intrepid Ibex fglrx 8.10 ATi Radeon 3870. I appreciate any responses.
