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.

The window pops up for a moment, saying 'Connecting account', which then goes away and the program pops up an error message after about the money. Any ideas? Would the

Just so you guys know, there's a new game available on Steam that I would hope to see some development for Wine, which is this awesome puzzle game called Braid. http://braid-game.com/ It's a 2D side scroller, but it's so much more. I've played the demo on my brother's X-Box 360, but never could convince him that it was worth it to download. SO I was hoping I could stir up some

I just installed steam+TMN and it seems to run quite well apart from sound. I tried switching to OSS and got not sound while on ALSA I get the occasional "click" and thats about it. Other software I have run through wine is WAR beta and WoW both of which play sound fine, so I suspect maybe Steam is holding up the sound device or something? I am on Ubuntu Hardy. I also used winetricks

I'm not sure if this is a problem resulting from my PlayOnLinux app for handling the wine based applications. However whenever I get a popup or notification from my Ubuntu desktop it causes the Steam application to hard freeze, graphically only though. Seeing as I then have to hit '`' and then quit (I have only valve based games) I'm just wondering if anyone has experienced this

Hi guys! I was reading to the platinum games list and I noticed that many are accompanied by the "steam" label (i.e. day of defeat steam): what does that mean? Can't I use the normal game dvd to install the game? Sorry but I'm quite a wine noob! Thanks in advance!

Hello WineHQ I am looking to install Steam onto my laptop. (Toshiba L655 w/ Ubuntu 11.04 64bit) Following several of the guides I have found online I was able to install the steam platform/engine with no issues, however when I go to download one of the games from my library to install it or access the steam store. It will crash out, displaying the following error stream in my active console.

When ever I try to run FEAR 2 or Half-Life in Steam the "Preparing to launch" window comes up and then disappears. I assume every game I have will do this same thing, but it takes way to long to install anything in Steam.

Hello everyone Wine is great. I've managed to (through PlayOnLinux) get Steam installed and I'm able to play a load of my games in the comfort of Ubuntu. Currently I have all my Half Life and Half Life 2 mods working for the most part. My issue is: Some games come with a browser or launcher that checks if the game is up to date. All of these launchers tend to contain some Java, Flash
