Having trouble installing CNC TIberium sun

[Qwerty_]

Hi i am having trouble installing tiberium sun i have been to the winehq and had a look at the Howto but i just cant seem to do it properly everytime i try to i get stuck in a loop of wanting to restart wine. Then i try to use the file located in /setup/setup.exe on the disc and it asks me to insert the disc when it is already inserted, So downloaded the no-cd and i dont know how to install it so that i can install the game.

Any help is appreciated thanks.

sorry about the double post.

I havent tried installing C&C TS, but I once had RA2 running on my box. Im not sure that you can actually run an installer in wine.

The way I did it was to creat a no-cd installation in windows, using a crack, that was applied after installation. The crack was so well-made that RA2 was able to start without any registry-settings present. Im not sure there is such a thing for C&C TS, but I hope you get it working.

So,,

1) Install game in windows
2) apply crack
3) try to copy all files to your ubuntu installation
4) If the game complains about missing files, or reinstalling, you need to move some registry settings to your wine installation.

Hope you get it working!Q

Ok well i managed to get it to run off a disc on my windows even without copying the stuff required on disc 2 however when i try to run it in wine i get the following.. and i also copied it onto my linux box so it would have somewhere to dump game info as required.

i have noidea what that means but nothing seems to happen after i get that.

[Qwerty_]

Ok well i have managed to get it to run off my external hdd now and i can start it up in wine aslong as the Windows type is ME or lower but as soon as it loads up the game it just quits and changes my resolution to 800X600 i am now using wine 0.9.16 any ideas what the problem could be?

EDIT: i just checked http://appdb.winehq.org and .9.16 does not run Tiberian sun. I might roll back to .9.12 that seems to work from what i have read.

[Qwerty_]

OK i rolled back wine to 0.9.12 and TS works fine now. Just thought some of you would like to know.

[vem0m]

before that did u attempt to try version 0.9.17?

Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
That does looks like that the driver for your graphic isn't installed or setup wrongly.

[Qwerty_]

before that did u attempt to try version 0.9.17?

I tried both .9.17 and 0.9.16 both with no luck.
