Lineage 2: Wine or Cedega

**Sugi** · June 5th, 2007

I know, I know. I'm going to try it on VM and see how that goes (something like vmwarea, maybe.) In the game, my clan leader is doing the same thing (not vmware though, he uses red boot) So, maybe I'll have some luck like he did.

Currently playing: diablo 2, warcraft 3, starcraft, and maybe someday lineage 2. (maybe starcraft 2 when it comes out. ^_,^)

So, I can play other games too, but no lineage 2. It was a great game with ****** coding. I knew this back in the days of windows.

No, that doesn't mean gameguard has no effect at all.
Gameguard STILL loads and will stop your game from working.
What you need to do is discuss the problem with the private servers admin and see which workaround they use.
When I ran the XTC L2J server we just used a 127.0.0.1 redirect for gameguard and fixed it that way.
Since the advent of the newer lineage clients gameguard has started discovering this little redirect script.
There should be a script that you can download from them that wil deal with this problem for you.
If that don't help, go to http://l2.hopzone.net/ and ask for kadar after you enter the L2 area.
Go to the forums and post your question there, most likely they can walk you through it.
