wine users - Aug 2010 - call of duty 1 on wine

Hi all,

I have searched in web for how to run call of duty on wine (version
1.1.42) but no success. When I run it from windows directory, it loads
but a popup alerting that my graphic card doesn't support it. This
message is from wine or from the game?

You have to install the game in Wine.

Check the AppDB for any howtos:

You should also upgrade Wine; 1.1.42 is old.

No.  COD makes registry changes that are not carried over.  You have to install
this game in Wine to get these settings moved.

Also, as others have pointed out, please upgrade to at least Wine 1.2.  Bugs and
problems found in the 1.1 series will no longer be accepted (except if you find
a regression that is fixed/working in one of these.)

I think that's a problem of the game.  I think you have not typed the code
(http://www.chacha.com/topic/code) well .I suggest that you should again search
in wed and this time use the right code. And see what happens.
