Hello there, After downloading the latest version of wine, latest graphics drivers and install Steam through PlayOnLinux, I tried to launch Team Fortress 2. The initial Valve sound played and then the menu soud, but there was absolutely no video/display. Checking the processes list, hl2.exe was still running, so obviously something is going wrong here. My system should be fine, as I used to run

Hello, I'm trying to run Team Fortress 2 on Linux using Wine 1.0. I tried starting the game from Steam, but it shows the loading TF2 window, then closes and never starts the game. I know the game isn't supposed to run on Linux, but I have a question about gameinfo.txt. I tried starting hl2.exe in: /.wine/drive_c/Program Files/steam/steamapps\*user*\team fortress 2 folder, but it said I

I haven't been able to find a way yet, but is it possible to somehow have steam run not in a virtual desktop or at least a seperate virtual desktop than team fortress 2? If I could alt tab or switch desktop spaces and be able to access steam from my taskbar so I can talk to my friends in the game (since in-game overlay doesn't work) Or join them using the steam friends options without

Hello, I'm using Wine 1.4rc5 (because earlier versions seemed to lag rather badly when rendering pages in Steam) on kernel 3.0.0-12.20 using the (latest) 64-bit NVIDIA driver version 295.20 (installed from the file from NVIDIA) for the Quadro 160M (which runs has run TF2 just fine in the past). I understand that Team Fortress 2 and other Source games require 32-bit display driver libraries,

Hello gentlemen, I try to start Team Fortress 2, which shows the Valve splash screen in a little box in the middle of my screen (supposed to be fullscreen), and then the screen goes black for a second and it crashes afterwards. I tried running it with '-dxlevel 81' both from the wine command in the terminal and in the game's properties in Steam, but it shows no difference. Anyone

Lots of 3D games such as Team Fortress 2, Audiosurf or Stalker have very low performance in comparison to running on the same computer on Windows. What can I do to improve it? What developers have still to implement to fully support 3D rendering?

Hi Folks, I have been using Wine for some time now to run Team Fortress 2 (and other HL2 based games) on my Ubuntu system. I was previously running Ubuntu 7.10 with an Athlon64 3800+, a 7600GT (256MB of RAM), and 2GB of DDR2 333MHz. Recently I upgraded to Ubuntu 8.10 (i386) with an AthlonX2 64 6000+, an 8800GT (1GB of RAM) and 4GB of DDR 800MHz. I was really hoping for a nice performance bump

Are you used the command line ( -dxlevel 80 ) option to launch the game? This solved my problem of corrupt graphics and texts in game.

Specs: Ubuntu 10.10 64bit Nvidia 260 GTX driver ver. 260.19.44 4 gig ram onboard sound wine ver. 1.3.16 So TF2 runs great, in dx9 mode its all good. THAT IS until something pops up on my desktop in the form of a notification or if I needed to alt+tab to something. I'm running it windowed at 1280x800 through the steam interface, the winecfg is not configured to run in a simulated desktop

Hey Ive followed the instructions in the AppDB on how to setup team fortress 2, and after i did the preformence in menus improved, how ever i cannot still join any games. After loading completty finnished, just to send of into In-Game mode, it crashes. No error messages and steam freezes... I have Nvidia Geforce 9800GT with driver 190.32 and Wine 1.1.28 (1.1.29 messes up my steam menus) I allso

Hello! I just installed TF2 and Steam through WINE. However, once I started it, it said my hardware must support at least Pixel Shader 1.1 to run the game. I looked up my Gfx card online, and the specs say my card supports Pixel shader 1.4. The requirements on the box say I need a card that supports Direct X 8. This shouldn't be a problem, because I've used both 8 and 9 on Windows. Is this

Hi, I've been in #winehq all day with this and nobody seemed to have any ideas, so I figured I'd post here. I recently installed TF2, which is an official HL2 mod. No problems with installation. The problem is that when I launch the game itself, it crashes almost immediately and I get the error in the attached log (made using WINEDEBUG=+tid,+seh,+loaddll,+d3d,+d3d_shader,+d3d9). Thus

Okay, so awhile back I had a problem with Steam. It wouldn't start and so I fixed that after installing a minimal version of winetricks (I removed a few things I knew I wouldn't need). Then Steam worked. Unfortunately I then had a problem with Team Fortress 2. This time the game wouldn't load. So I read the AppDB for Team Fortress 2 again and it said to disable Steam Community

I'm hoping someone can help me figure this problem out. It's been bugginng me for quite a while. First, basic specs: 8.04 Kubuntu x86 64 bit system. Nvidia 9600 GT video card 2GB RAM Wine version 1.1.10 I've been running wine for several years, so it's distinctly possible that I've got some leftover configuration information that's messing me up. I've tried

Hi. I'm running Debian Lenny, and I'm having a problem with Wine and playing TF2. I used to be able to play TF2 under DirectX 8.1 before updating to the newest version, no problems. I didn't even have to use the option -dxlevel 81, it was already set to it when I looked under video settings in TF2. However, with Wine 0.9.59, it seems that the DirectX that comes bundled with Wine is

I can not seem to get TF2 to run anymore. Steam launches fine, TF2 takes awhile to load but still loads, and then I says loading for a few minutes, my mouse appears in front of tf2 and then it crashes. Things I've Tried. -Update from 1.2 - 1.3.2 -disable audio -add gameoverlayrenderer to the dll disable as well as 64 version to be safe. However it still crashes. here is a pastebin of the

Greetings fellow Wine users, ????????I saw a prior message in the archives from 'darckness cyrix12 at cox.net' mentioning a problem trying to run TF2. I'm running on the latest git, or wine-0.9.45-426-g71d70f0, and appear to be having a similar problem. I have a gzip of a log with WINEDEBUG=+tid,+seh,+loaddll,+d3d,+d3d_shader, +d3d9 [1], running Steam and attempting to launch TF2.

Hello, I got a real problem as TF2 is my favorite game, when i start steam and click on Team Fortress 2, it loads and the menu shows up, but when i try to join a server whole TF2 hangs! So i'm forced to "Kill process" to make it shut down, i've tried running it in a virtual screen etc. but nothing works. But it does work with Crossover Office Pro and Crossover Games, so i

I am using version 1.0, and when I try to start team fortress 2, the loading and menu screen are all skewed and messed up, and the sound just loops over and over. Then when I quit, my screen resolution does not revert to what it's supposed to be. [Image: http://img174.imageshack.us/img174/1561/screenshotgx1.png ] Does anyone have an idea on how to fix this?
