This is my question. I want to install some mods to my games, but the program files folder in wine looks empty (only IE) Where are the game folders?? Thanks.

For example, I checked Painkiller on AppDB and it works fine, I don't get any keyboard or mouse issues anymore (avoid Compiz), so I decided to try that game first. It loads all fine but in game a lot of objects are missing like monsters. The game is pretty unplayable if you can't see what you are shooting at. Invisible or unloaded objects in games is a common problem for me. So what

So i downloaded Monkey Island 2 - iso file.

I have been trying to add a launcher to the gnome menu for some of my wine games, but I have found that when I add them to the menu the games complain about missing files, I assume because it is looking for the rest of the game files in the directory that the launcher is in. This doesn't happen when I run the same command within the games directory they work fine. I used to have this problem

Hi all I'm trying to play the game "BOH" (http://www.bohthegame.com/) on OS X using Darwine. I downloaded 1.1.19 and dragged the Darwine folder to /Applications.

I have recently gotten back into making a games with gamemaker. I had a big game that I didn't finish on my old computer running Windows XP. But then my stupid sister dropped my laptop done the stairs. That was about 2 months ago, and I got a new laptop running OSX because my parents hate Windows (while I love it).

Here is a extract of my posting on Ubuntu forum that so far has not solved my problem: "I have been using Wine and the programs for the past 12 months without any hitches under 32bit 8.04 and 8.10.
