Cedega and WoW installed

[darkfusion]

Before moving to ubuntu I was playing World of Warcraft and I had that installed on one of my slave hds . Now I wanna play it using cedega but for some reason I can get it to work . The path to my WoW install is /media/xx/World of Warcraft/WoW.exe .

Perhaps try a reinstall through WINE?

Maybe Wine needs to add some 'registry entries' or something like that.

Well, you could backup your save games and reinstall warcraft with cedega and copy the savegames to the new installation.

WoW is an MMORPG, any saved games don't matter a stuff, as it's all stored online at Blizzard, the only issue with Wine/Cedega is that when an Update is released you have to wait for the .exe version of the patch because last I heard there were issues with the update system in Cedega.

I'd suggest installing with the CD's through Cedga/Wine.

Darkfusion - We're going to need more. Where is it breaking down? My WoW install method was a straight copy from my Windows PC to my Linux PC. Never used the original CDs to install on Linux. I always used retail Cedega as well, so I can't speak for Wine setups.

I've run into 2 problems with WoW thus far. The first will crash out instantly (and I don't remember error message). The problem was the screen resolution configured for WoW. The Windows setup was out-of-bounds for the Linux setup, and I had to manually edit that in the WoW config files (simple fix). The second issue is the well known, and well documented, mouse problem (can't click on anything).

Does the partition that WoW is on use an NTFS filesystem?
