    The sims 3 installed via Origin, crash during login.

    Cool, looks like DirectX fixed the audio problems... Loging is obviously a problem because without it, the game is useless. I'll check WineHQs and see if anyone has a similar problem

    Fallout 3 Guide

    Oh yeah, I forgot. I wasn't impress with Operation Anchorage, but The Pitt is pretty cool. Keep playing and let us know if you have further glitches. Its a really addictive game.

    Champions Online (Free-to-play RPG)

    No problem... I'm eventually going to test it myself. Dang, so now its broken on Windows and Linux? Backup the game files first, then try re-installing Arc. So are you meaning each game should already have the directx, vcrun, dotnet, etc already bundled in the download or DVD?

    DOTA 2 on Steam (Free-to-play)

    Awesome... intro scenes are usually a video, so maybe a codec problem?

    PlayOnLinux Explained: Components Part 2

    Internet Explorer 8 Many games and Windows programs require Internet Explorer to be installed because they use browser-based programming for interfaces and updates. Installing IE8 won't hurt any existing configurations or libraries, but you are required to set Windows version to Windows XP...

    PlayOnLinux Explained: Components Part 1

    Components are also called Windows Packages, Libraries and DLL's. Libraries are necessary operating system files that allow games and programs to work. All operating systems have them. Wine has bundled Windows compatible libraries so we can run our PC games and programs in Linux. Sometimes the...

    Origin Humble Bundle

    Yeah, Graphics are very sweet... for some reason I can't zoom in with Yuriko campaign. But I can with the other campaigns. Its only dungeon crawler for interior missions, outside missions are like the normal game.

    Champions Online (Free-to-play RPG)

    Yes this is very strange. I'm not exactly sure why, but it looks like when you download Arc from the game site, something isn't initiating the install for the specific game.

    DOTA 2 on Steam (Free-to-play)

    Same for me... I'm not to great at competitive games so I usually stay away from them. I prefer helping a friend fight together cooperatively. Less frustrating for sure! League of Legends has a cooperative mode where you can create A.I. opponents to fight against. That was kinda fun. Not sure...

    Champions Online (Free-to-play RPG)

    Yup, that happend to me also. Guess the best way is to install Arc again in another virtual drive from the Champions Online download. Then Champions should automatically ask to be installed just as Neverwinter did.

    Fallout 3 Guide

    Yeah, I had a lot of crashing at the very begining when there was the speech bug. Also does your water look screwed up? Maybe just white? Are you using Windows XP as your Windows Version? At this point Mono is just as good as dotnet but you can't install them both. There could be conflicts...

    Champions Online (Free-to-play RPG)

    But now you are installing Champions Online and Neverwinter with PlayOnLinux, correct? Do you have that "Add games" link?

    Champions Online (Free-to-play RPG)

    The first time I installed Neverwinter with Arc both Star Trek Online and Neverwinter showed up on my list. See right here: So it is possible, but I'm not sure how... Should be automatic.

    Champions Online (Free-to-play RPG)

    Yes, please let me know what you find out... this is important because if we can install any Perfect World game in a single Virtual Drive would be very cool and easy to use. I've had success like this with Source games and Steam. If one Source game works in a virtual drive, them most of them...

    Champions Online (Free-to-play RPG)

    Are you talking about install Champoins Online in the same virtual drive where you install Neverwinter? You should be able to... Is there a way to search for games in Arc like you do in Steam? Otherwise, try going to the Champions Online website, downloading Arc and installing it in the...

    Origin Humble Bundle

    I don't know, did you try the Yuriko campaign? Its nothing like a strategy game... its more like a Dungeon crawler RPG. Which is why I like it. Almost like you are a super villain coming to destroy the base someone built up. I was quite surprised... its very anti-strategy.

    Legend of Grimrock Guide

    I actually got pretty far without alchemy... But it would have been nice to heal from poison. I think I remember a pestal in the game... Grimrock was easy enough to figure out just they way it is... but it would have been nice to include a short tutorial
