howdy folks

I recently installed WINE
I then installed Unreal Tournament
Now, when I run UT using WINE, only the upper-lefthand corner of the screen is shown
It's not that the entire window is compressed to this size, it's that 3/4 of the screen is black

Any ideas?
Thanks in advance!

Which UT is this? Because UT2k4 runs natively in linux.

I suggest using Loki's installer

you said UT (i'm assuming you mean Unreal Tournament 1)

Make sure it's set executable and you should be able to run it normally. (Check the file's permission properties in your file manager.)

Or from terminal, cd to wherever you saved the file and do:
chmod +x (whatever the filename is here)

then run it:

./(again, whatever the filename is here)

well
i did stupid things, and now i've lost where i put that installer
how do i find it?

and judging from the name, it's not what i'm looking for
the game is installed, it runs, i can play it
it's just that i can;t see all of the screen
i messed around with the video card option, and now im only missing about 2 inches off the right side of the screen
