JudasIscariot: Still, it would be good to get some bug reports for Bugzilla so that the Wine people can see what's up :)
avatar
Matruchus: I never used Bugzilla so I'm kind of lost there. Otherwise all I get is in the attached picture.
Open up the GUI version of the latest version of winetricks and look for anything d3dx11 related in there and try again?

Matruchus: I have selected d3dx10 d3dx11_42 and 43 and zero effect.
Still get that dialogue box?
avatar
Matruchus: Damn, I'm stupid. I had it setup on Win XP cause of some other game. But still managed to get the game launched but then it crashed and generated automatical report and sent it to Petroglyph.

blakstar: Just a quick reminder, but if you use fresh Wine prefixes with each game install you can change Windows types, and winetricks, for a game as much as you like, without affecting any of your other games.
Heh, you should see the prefix I have Grim Dawn :D Dirtiest damn thing ever, a million overrides but oh man the game runs so smooth :D

blakstar: I try and run my games in a kind of "Wine nirvana" -- pure Wine with no winetricks whatsoever. Starts feeling like I'm cheating when I start sticking Windows libraries on my Linux machine. :-D
Well, I am mostly utilitarian in nature as in "Does this work well? Great, into the pot it goes!" :D

blakstar: Well, at least I've got videos :-P
True but do you have Grim Dawn running buttery smooth, though? :P

Videos for Ck Complete and Europa Universalis :P I have video too, just not for those games :P

Ha, I managed to get videos in CK Complete. Apparently, for CK Complete at least, quartz installed via winetricks interferes or something of the sort with whatever quartz bits Wine already has natively.

One down :P

rampancy: ...soooo, anyone tried Bloodlines yet?
I don't have the time for a full report yet but here's what I did:

Run the installer.

Set up a virtual desktop since I have a 1920 x 1200 and the game didn't see it UNTIL I gave it a virtual desktop of that size.

Ran

$wine vampire.exe

for the unmodded version.

You can run

$wine vampire.exe -game Unofficial_Patch

if you want to play with the Unofficial Patch.
Darkest Dungeon is now available for penguins so no more Wine :D

MikeMaximus: Great news. I wish more games that didn't already work perfectly in Wine got ported instead though. :)
Same but gotta take whatever little victories we can :)

Gydion: Nice. Removed from the list.

shmerl: Yes, see the announcement thread.

Gydion: Care to post that info in here?
Yeah I need to post two games now :P Bloodlines and Deadly Tower of Monsters :D

JudasIscariot: ...

rampancy: Do you happen to know what other system components are installed in the Vampire: Bloodlines installer?

On WINE I've noticed that with several games (notably EU3/HOI3/EUR, among others) the installer tends to hang with WINE 1.9.x. On the latter three games it seems to happen when the installer tries to install .NET framework. Things work fine after I force quit the installer and install .NET on my own.

I've seen the Bloodlines installer also hang in a similar fashion, so I'm wondering if something similar is happening with that game too.
I've seen directx_Jun2010_redist.exe in the innoextracted installer package.
Game: The Deadly Tower of Monsters
Installer MD5: a4a4b745c58c61820ffd77fd594ba7b8 setup_deadly_tower_of_monsters_2.0.0.2.exe
WineHQ AppDB link:N/A

Distro: Antergos 64-bit
Kernel version: 4.5.1-1
Graphics card: Nvidia GeForce GTX 560Ti
Graphics driver & version: Proprietary 364.19
Wine version(s) tested: Wine 1.9.8

Install notes: Just install & play. You'll need to configure controller support with something like joy2key or xpadder.
How well does it run: Perfect
Details: Played the whole tutorial and everything played, cutscenes and all. I did notice one weird thing and that is if you install and play the game in one prefix and then set up another prefix and install the game on that one and play it the game in the second prefix will have weird sound issues where you cannot change the sound levels so the music will be extremely loud while the director's commentary along with any other spoken speech will be lower than normal so make sure to install the game once and only once and in one prefix.

Well, I tried Skyshine's BEDLAM in Wine and the game does start and all buuuuuut the Options menu starts opened and you cannot close it at all. You can still interact with the various elements behind it but you will never be able to close it.

This makes the game very much unplayable in Wine.

te_lanus: Have you tried the new star wars game? Tried at a friends house, he has it running ok on his windows, but it runs way to fast on linux.
No, I have not tried Shadows of the Empire via Wine yet.

Amadren: Game: Simcity 2000 Special Edition
Installer MD5: df14bff3caa6fac2cfb54c1e16399e21 setup_sc2000_se_2.0.0.15.exe
WineHQ AppDB link: N/A

Distro: Archlinux 64 bits & Zorin OS 11 Ultimate
Kernel version: 4.5.1-1 & 4.2.0-36-generic
Graphics card: AMD Radeon HD 7950
Graphics driver & version: Proprietary (catalyst-hook and fglrx)
Wine version(s) tested: Crossover & Wine 1.6.2 & Wine 1.9.9(-staging)

Install notes: Just install & play using Crossover & my crosstie. Wine gives me an awesome kernel panic.
How well does it run: Perfect
Details: Played several hours on both Archlinux & Zorin OS (ubuntu 15.10 based). Works perfectly using crossover, crashes my system using wine. Even when using POL's patched version.
I have never seen a kernel panic with Wine before. Does this also happen when you use the open source Radeon drivers?
