WoW, Wine

[nerdman]

World of warcraft.

when I run it "wine WoW.exe -openGL"... "cannot start 3D acceleration".
when I run it "wine WoW.exe" ... gives me the error sending program.

...is Cedega a better choice?

I have the World of Warcraft folder from when I installed it on an actual windows system, so I figured I should be good off. is this an openGL issue then?

[seethru]

can you post your Config.WTF for me? it's located in your WoW folder, under WTF.

Now I am getting the error window... I thought that was good sign as its actually running just not working >.o Are there drivers I would need? *shivers*

[KingBahamut]

Nerdman , are you using a properly accelerated Video card? and if so, what type and what driver are you using?

[nerdman]

I got my nVidia drivers all up to date, using the HOWTO in the forum a bit under this one, mere minutes ago >.o

...I'm thinking Cedega is a bit more easily implemented?

[KingBahamut]

Cedega, DirectXWine, and cvscedega are yes....a little easier implemented. I use factory developed Cedega, but the others have thier merits too.

[nerdman]

I cannot apt-get or search in synaptic for any of the three things there... Would you know which repository they are on? :smile:

[KingBahamut]

cedega - http://www.transgaming.com - pay site, but worth it.

cvscedega and directXwine -

[seethru]

does glxgears work? and if it does, what kind of performance are you getting from it? If glxgears doesn't work, it's quite likely you don't have 3D acceleration setup correctly.

[nerdman]

glxgears....

again, I find my list of repositories anything but complete... apt-get For the lose? sigh~

o.o;; I thought Linux was supposed to be free

Linux is, but those guys at TG have to pay their programmers. What they do is amazing.
