Hey there, I've been trying to get tropico 3 to run on wine. My efforts so far have managed me to get to a point where I can get the main menu to work, but as soon as I load up a map, it dies: Code: john at panther:~/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/Kalypso/Tropico 3$ wine Tropico3.exe fixme:win:EnumDisplayDevicesW ((null),0,0x32f18c,0x00000000), stub! fixme:imagehlp:ImageLoad (C:\Program

Hi guys, I bought Tropico 3 and am trying to run this. Everytime i run it, it shows a loading screen for about 5 seconds and then closes and says either A serious error has occurred or "internal errors, invalid parameters" Does anyone know how to fix this and get this running. It would be really appreciated.

SimCity 4 has a lot of problems of its own that cause it to Crash to the Desktop quite often. However, the failure to provide more than one back buffer makes it hard to run large cities, and has gotten past annoyance for me, at least. Here is my latest log, from initiation of the game to the point where I finally killed it because the graphics had gone crazy again. My system has MB of graphics

Well, good old Simcity 4 is now giving me event entries I've never seen before. The last one gave me a crash to the desk top, which is not unusual for this game, but I don't understand what the log is telling me. Please have a look at this and see if you can help out.

I get an HD display with this program, and a system lockup into the bargain. I can't even get in with the three finger salute. I had to use the Magic Sysrq keys to safely close the system and reboot. At least nothing was lost, and I got the system back. wine 1.3.6 freshly compiled this hour UBUNTU 10.10 AMD64 updated after lunch. Here is the application log: [code]

Hey, guys, i surfed the internet and found a new game by gamigo I want to try out. http://warofangels.gamigo.com/ I downloaded the installer and successfully installed the game. I used winetricks to install - d3dx9 - d3dx9_28 - d3dx9_36 - corefonts - dotnet11 - dotnet20 - dotnet 20sp2 I've to use the launcher provided in the game's directory which seems to work fine. It does patching

For mac emulation in Wine, I suggest switching to CXZ. It's based on the Crossover Engine used by codeweavers and generally has better results on the mac platform. I personally ported Tropico 3 to mac a few months ago and placed it on Demonoid (so you might wanna look there) and if you wanna check out other ports for games - I'd look into portingteam.com Good luck!

Doh123, how is running a program off an NTFS partition asking for trouble? Ntfsprogs seems to handle it just fine. I know that NTFS doesn't let you mark a file as executable, and that the filesystem is susceptible to fragmentation, but you should just be able to tell it to run rather than display and be good. It shouldn't cause destruction. I think there might even be an NTFS defrag tool

Hi guys, I've installed COD MW2 and followed the instructions as per the AppDB page: http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=18348&iTestingId=48575 However, I get garbled text...and when in-game, the lighting is a mess. I'd try editing the graphic settings, but I can't make out the text of the menu. I'm using Wine 1.2 rc6 with or without the

Hey guys, I'm new to this forum and also to Linux. I hope this problem is not caused by my lack of knowledge, but I would guess not. Hopefully^^. As the title says, I try to play Half-Life 2 with Wine, which is listed as platinum in the Appdb, so I expected no problems. But unfortunately, the game is crashing when I want to start a new game. I see the loading bar filling, but when it's

I installed avp 2010 and wanted to have some fun in mp, but when starting the game, I had no sound at all... The weird thing is that in movies and such, there is sound.

So I tried to run Impulse on my Ubuntu 11.04 laptop and it installed fine (or at least seemed to). When I tried to run it I got the working cursor for a bit then nothing. I ran it in terminal and got a error message about running the Windows version of Mono so I went online and did a search for the error message and found a file called mono-2.4.2.3-gtksharp-2.12.9-win32-3.exe and ran it. The error

I just installed EVE, started it up no problem and started playing. Graphics looked great, sound was perfect, then 5 minutes later EVE crashes. Hmm...fire it back up, play for a bit longer than 5 minutes and poof crashes again. I can play somewhere between 2-10 minutes between crashes. Not sure what the deal is.

Hello, I tried with alsa and OSS. PulseAudio isn't installed and i use Archlinux x86. I tried too with Wine 1.2-rc6. I have sound during the installation, and during the video but i haven't sound during the game when i play. I launch the game with a console and i have this : Code: err:ole:CoGetClassObject class {9a5ea990-3034-4d6f-9128-01f3c61022bc} not registered

Most notably, Team Fortress 2 and Counter Strike Source, in addition to Homeworld 2, all ran perfectly. I left for a while and returned. Now I get a strange error, as the games still work, but refuse to stay on the screen. It's like they fight for a while witht he operating system, then run fine in my taskbar. Here is the full log: Code: ;; This buffer is for notes you don't want to save,

Hey everyone, please excuse the briefness of the post but I am trying to get to bed after screwing with this for 6 hours. To proceed: 9 times out of 10 when I launch Eve using "wine explorer /desktop=0,1,800x600 "F:\EVE\eve.exe"" the app just doesn't launch. It throws the splash screen then just minimizes it with no errors and leaves up the windowed session. When the app
