cod5 world at war.

[nismo_2005]

ok I am trying to get cod 5 running on my computer. i installed it with wine all went well. but when i go to play it it says please insert the correct dvd. it is a one dvd set so i know im using the right one.
I have wine set on xp if that makes a difference. and I'm using ubuntu 9.10.

i have also tried playonlinux and get the same exact problem.

ok i got it to launch i installed the no dvd patch.

when i go to launch it i get this

Error during initialization:
Video card or driver doesn't support enough textures for the DirectX 9 code path.


is this a error with wine/ubuntu? or just my need to get a better video card then my 512mb 8400gs. i know it is not a gaming card. but i would have thought it would at least launch the game.

quick update i tried installing the 195 driver and same issue. this game runs on windows with the 8400gs.so the error confuses me.

You have to configure your settings on the nvidia driver. Go to System/administration/nvidia x server settings. [Which is on the top left of your screen]
Configure your settings to high on all of them.

But you might need to have administrator on.

Then try your game. :)

Wine sometimes freaks out during DX9 stuff too - nobody said it was perfect.
