Doesn't Work on Intel GPUs +a WINE Guide
AVOID LIKE A PLAGUE. DOES NOT WORK ON INTEL GPUS AND HAS REMAINED UNFIXED FOR 15 YEARS. IT IS CHEAP BECAUSE IT SUCKS. NONE OF THE PATCHES FIX ANYTHING. A -1/5 technical garbage-fire and ripping off of Microprose's creations. Used to have the system-killing Starforce copyprotection crap to ultimately prove how much it was about money instead of creating something unique and worth playing. BTW, zero guides how to get the wine going. No, does not work outta box, had to guess cmdline options. (OOtB: THE CMDSStream error.) Review over. The rest is to help the fellow scammed men to get it to work on Linux. Here are the steps. 0. Download and extract a custom, non-numbered widescreen patch zip (unless you want to play with a F'd-up, 50%-of-the-right-side-missing screen). 1. Download Lubuntu 20.04 and burn it on a 8+ GB USB stick with Rufus (MBR+BIOS settings req.). 2. Set BIOS (smash F* keys or DEL to get theere) to disable Secure BOOT, enable possible Legacy BIOS and ACPI modes and enable CSM. Then boot with your USB stick. 3. Select to start without installing (any changed data will not be saved on the stick). 4. Install wine32 and winetricks. 5. Use 'sudo winetricks' to install "windows components" and select 'dsound' and 'directmusic' and to change the sound to 'alsa'. 6. Get the UFO.exe of the selected res into the game dir. 7. Go open your UFO's hard drive (opening it automounts it, very important). Then modify and apply the following cmd to run Aftershack: sudo wine /media/lubuntu/[hard_disk_partition/path/to/UFO_dir/UFO_720p.exe --options multisample=4 anisotropy=8 loadall=FALSE video_caption=TRUE loadall=FALSE nointro=TRUE fullscreen=FALSE nointro=TRUE nosound=FALSE (No sound without 'sudo' even with sound on, weird.) Change to: nosound=TRUE if it fails to find a sound system. At least it plays then. F the devs for not fixing all this. P.S. Gameplay-wise: MUCH WORSE than Aftermath. Early Difficulty Spiking Broken Pathfinding Feature Creep Busywork etc.
