Hi all, I'm using wine 9.57 in ubuntu gutsy, I'm trying to install BGII but the installshield, when reaches about 78%, asks me for the cd2: I give the directory path and immediately it asks for cd 3,4,5. Naturally i can't provide cd 5 because BGII is a 4cds game. I've tried to upgrade installshield with no result. I've also tried to eject (wine eject) the directory with cd1 but

According to the AppDB it should work just fine but I'm having some problems and the search for the forums on "Baldur", "Bhaal" and "ToB" give no results. The game installed just fine. All the community mods installed fine. The game config file runs fine except for the display setting sections; after a the automated setting test I do not get the popup asking if

Hi NG, i tried to run baldurs gate. I saw the Intro and thats all. Wine was always printing the same message:"fixme:ddraw:Main_DirectDraw_CreateSurface App didn't request a valid surface type - assuming offscreenplain". Is this a missing feature in wine (when will it be implemented)? PS:I'm running the cvs version of today(4.May)

Hey there I installed Baldurs Gate 2 with Throne of Bhaal under Ubuntu 9.04 through Wine 1.1.26. It went fine and I was able to start the game. But there was besides the normale Gamecursor the Systemcursor, which I couldnt move. It stayed there even as I loaded the Game. Screen: [Image: http://www.abload.de/img/fotokhrc.jpg ] I wasnt able to save the game aswell. Any Solutions? BTW: Baldurs Gate

I'm trying to make Baldurs Gate II multiplayer working. I've used DLLs from archive on http://wiki.winehq.org/DirectPlayGames (and from my WinXP install). I've added DLL overrides (native,builtin) for: dplayx, dpnet, dpnhpast but the last: dpwsockx isn't on the list in winecfg. When I try to start a multiplayer game wine has a memory leak or something - goes to SWAP, everything is

hi, I'm experiencing some kind of strange performance problem when running baldurs gate 2 with wine. It takes me about 10 to 12 minutes to start a new game or load an old one. it's only the loading itself that takes so long. The game is running at normal speed when fully loaded. Any ideas what might be causing the problem?

Hi, I'm having some issues with multiple games running under Wine, namely the GoG versions of Age of Wonder and Baldur's Gate. Both of these are listed on WineHQ as compatible, but I'm not having the same luck. If Compiz is running when I start the game, I get a black screen, but the game itself is obviously working, as the game music is playing and I can hear menu buttons pressed

Hi, at first I was getting the "your opengl drivers are not installed properly" error message and after upgrading to Debian Squeeze and reinstalling them that error message is gone. I can actually start the game and see the intro and the logos of the companies. Either I can try to click the screen with the Nietzsche screen away, then the game freezes up and clicking again exits the game

Howdy Folks, I'm trying to install Baldur's Gate II on a windowsless Wine configuration and not having much luck. When I run Setup.exe from /cdrom, I get the Baldur's Gate II splash screen, the progress bar indicating that InstallShield is preparing to install Baldur's Gate II - Shadow of Amn and a message box stating 'Error installing iKernel.exe: (0x1400)'. When I

To come clean at the very beginning of all this, I'm a very new Linux user - my Windows XP computer decided to destroy itself and so Ubuntu was my only choice in lieu of buying another copy of an already shoddy operating system. Because the Baldur's Gate 2 CDs do not have copy-protection, I simply copied their contents into a single folder in c: within wine's invisible directory.

I'm running wine 1.1.2 on Gentoo Linux. When playing at least Baldur's Gate I and Baldur's Gate II with Linux 2.6.21 kernel it does run smoothly but changing the kernel to any newer version does the game to run slowly. I have been checking the config of both kernels, and I have tried to get the same in them. I have a GF 6600 GT and nvidia 173.14.09, but I don't think it's the

Hello everyone, First of all let me say I'm a linux newbie, having only used the OS for a few days. I'm currently experiencing a problem with trying to get Baldur's Gate 1 to run. The install went flawlessly (Ubuntu 8.10, Wine 1.1.8) however when the launcher pops up. No matter what I click it hangs. I've tried all of the windows types in the Wine configuration panel but the

I am using Fedora 8 with Wine 1.0 rc3. The game seemed to install ok. I did a full install. When I try to run baldur.exe from the wine menu in KDE I get a splash screen opening up with the options to install, exit , configure, update and demos. I also get a message box telling me that I have to install Baldur's Gate II before playing. As far as I can tell, it's installed. Can anyone help

Hi there, I've recently compiled Wine-20041201 and I'm trying to get Baldur's Gate II running. The installation sequence is fine, so is the main menu, character creation etc. The problem is, once inside the actual game, the application randomly crashes giving me: Runtime error c:\bg2\BGMain.exe abnormal program termination This happens often enough to render the gameplay quite

Hey! Hello, WineHQ. Signed up because I've hit the limits of my ability with CIDER. I'm using the CIDER version of Baldur's Gate 2 on my Macbook 10.5.8 and I've gotten the game to run fine in Single Player. Unfortunately, I'm unable to run it in multiplayer mode which is a favorite of mine. Normally one can run a multiplayer TCP/IP game in BG2 so they can import/export

Hi, I run into a consistent crash in the GOG.com version of ToTSC (latest patched version). Specifically when entering house 6 as shown on http://www.forgottenwars.com/bg1/maps/x_0700.jpg Config: Ubuntu 10.10 x64, nVidia driver 270.41.03 kernel 2.6.38, wine 1.3.18 Can someone please check if they're also affected (or not)? I can provide a save game if necessary. Thanks in advance, FD

Hello. When i upgraded wine from 0.9.46 to 0.9.53 i noticed a annoying thing. When i run Baldur's Gate II - Shadows of Amn (and Icewind Dale II) on normal fullscreen mode they work fine. If i enable the "emulate a virtual desktop" option so that it runs on a window, it works fine until another window gets on top of the wine window. For example, i run xterm and run wine. If i click

Hi, I managed to install BG II (following some posts at http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=408), with some difficulty. I eventually copied all the files from all four disks into a single directory, and the install then proceeded smoothly. Now, the launch screen comes up fine, but when I select play, it fails with a windows-style error box claiming: "We cannot

Give it a few minutes (Alt-Tabbing out and back into the game a few times). You'll find out that you just rested for 22 days at once. It seems random when it happens, but also seems save-specific.
