crossposted to wine-dev, and wine-users Hi, I've done some more tests, and i found that when i run winedbg starcraft and wine starcraft and then again winedbg starcraft etc. It works, but always following this pattern: <boot my box> winedbg starcraft :all runs perfectly wine starcraft: all video choppy winedbg starcraft :all runs perfectly winedbg starcraft: all video choppy wine

Starcraft 2 is the new next Blizzard RTS game. It's going to be released later this year, but the beta is coming soon. It will probably work nicely with Wine. Just like every other Blizzard game is working. Still it would be nice, if we'd get perfect support for it. It would be great if we would be able to fix all problems on the beta stage and then the final game would work perfectly on

I'm having a little trouble with trying to install newer versions of Starcraft (updates or Brood War) on a win-free Wine installation. I can run the installer off the original Starcraft CD, and it puts all of the files in the right place, adds a couple registry entries, and then chokes on creating the entries in the Start Menu. Still, I can kill the process at that point, and I have a usable

Hey everybody, relatively new Linux and Wine user here, and I'm having some issues with Starcraft 2. I'm able to download Starcraft 2 just fine. My issues are with the patches. Once I try to start up Starcraft, it goes to the patching window as it normally does in Windows. However, after a couple of seconds, the window just closes. I've tried running the Blizzard Updater.exe, but

When I attempt to install Starcraft 2 I receive the following message: "Sorry, the installer was unable to start up. No installer data could be found. If this problem persists, please contact Blizzard Technical Support." OS: Ubuntu 10.04.1 (garnered from "cat /etc/issue") Wine Version: 1.3.11 Starcraft 2: Retail, CD. I let the automated systems take care of the update for

wisotool is a handy winetricks-like script for automatically installing games from .iso files copied from your own dvds (or, if the game is freely downloadable, it will download it). Just like winetricks, it is intended to make testing Wine easier, but might be useful for people who simply want to install games. Unlike winetricks, wisotool is quiet by default; it doesn't ask any questions

Well, I found this bug with WINE's folder dialog returning something that the StarCraft beta downloader does not expect. So no matter what folder I chose to save the game in it said "Invalid path chosen! Please choose again." But I can't report it in a useful manner because the beta downloader should not be legally shared. But I was able to bypass this bug by modifying the

Hello fellow wineries! I am not new to Linux, have been using a few years now, however I am not an expert my any means either. I am attempting to run Starcraft (Blizzard) in wine on my Debian system. The install will not run. I have tried several different compatibility types (win95, win98, XP among others) but with no avail. The install.exe (or setup.exe) on the cd will not run. It opens up

Hey dear Wine community, I want to play Starcraft 2 (Retail) on my Ubuntu distro, so I downloaded wine 1.3 and followed a How To to install wine tricks. After I downloaded this stuff, I had to disable mmdevapi and Enable Elsa under the Audio tab. Then I installed Starcraft 2, it was very fast installed and I began to update. Update done, so I started the game. But there was an graphical error,

I know, Starcraft has been covered much, but I still cannot make starcraft complete its installation. The installation halts while adding shortcuts to the start menu. As someone (Ove I believe) mentioned, Starcraft adds certain registry keys after creating shortcuts, requiring the installation to continue. I have modified wineshelllink in order to gain some insight: #!/bin/sh echo "$@"

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 all, i have run starcraft from the debugger, and it's fast. (Well, about as fast as win98 on a P-60) I have run it from wine, and it's slow (about a 468-33) The real machine i runt it from is a celeron 416, 160 MB ram, geforce 2 mx400 PCI I *finaly* discovered i could get a trace from it by using winedbg -debugmsg i.e. ONE dash. I run a diff on both files, and i was surprized to

I got Starcraft and Warcraft 3 working without a CD Crack using wine. The trick is a link in the ~/.wine/dosdevices directory to your mounted CD-Rom directory with the name: "d:" for example if you starcraft CD is mounted in /media/STARCRAFT then enter the following commands: cd ~/.wine/dosdevices ln -s /media/STARCRAFT d: Don't connect the the Battle.net. Starcraft will crash

Hi, I have discovered i can run starcraft at (almost) full speed on my system. This only works one time, directly after reboot. When tried a second time it's all choppy again. My guess is there're some stale wine processes after the first attempt. When i reboot and start wine instead of winedebug the game video performance is choppy. When i start the game with winedbg after that The

I'm sorry if this is a re-post - I switched news servers and it's not showing up on the new one. Here goes: I'm trying to run Starcraft fullscreen using xinit: xinit /usr/bin/wine ./starcraft.exe -- /usr/X11R6/bin/X :1 -screen Starcraft This runs SC in full-screen mode, no window manager, a separate X server, DGA-enabled, the whole 9 yards. Starcraft starts and looks great.

I have used Starcraft under wine for a long time, and I have just learned to put up with random crashes. The only version of wine I have gotten to work is ancient (991212)! I have tried more recent versions, but I haven't been able to get them running at all. Is there a wine that doesn't crash randomly running starcraft? What wine do you use for starcraft? (BTW, there seems to be a

Greets, I haven't been following the wine list; I just use wine to play Starcraft. I've been playing Starcraft perfectly for some years, and every couple of months I 'cvs update' with the wine sources. I cvsuped right now, and this has broken Starcraft. One slightly annoying thing is that the wine executable no longer takes the '-display' command line option, but at

Ok... here's my big problem with the nVidia drivers. Ever since I upgraded to 0.9-6 DGA mode with Starcraft has been broken!, and now with the 0.9-767 drivers Starcraft has refused to work AT ALL. If I replace the drivers back to the 0.9-5 (which are dreadfully unstable with SMP) Starcraft works fine. Any resolution, any color depth. With 0.9-6 I have to run Starcraft at 8-bit depth, else
