    Crysis Revisited

    Chances they never will because this suggested patch can cause other issues. Its more of a dev problem with CryEngine. And they will never fix it for Linux. So this is our only hope. So far I got a bunch of missing development libraries for compiling. If I don't have them, certain things won't...

    hmm, not sure, never had that problem before. Does it run smoothly or choppy?

    Call Of Duty 2 Guide

    Yes, there are no guarantees that is will work in Linux, but its worth a try. Remember if it breaks Call of Duty 2, then you will have to install all over again. Start by downloading the patch and saving to your desktop Launch PlayOnLinux Click Configure Select the CallofDuty2 virtual drive...

    Call Of Duty 2 Guide

    No problem, post if you have any questions, or even create a new thread for a game that you are testing. Also, if you have a game request, let me know... if I have it, I'll make a guide for it.

    AMD Crossfire On Linux?

    PCI-E 3.0 "should" run on your board, but I would research first and make sure others got the 650 to run before buying it. 2 Gig is always better, my 550 Ti has 2 Gigs and runs very smoothly in Linux.

    no, those are just guides to help you install PlayOnLinux and some of the Windows libraries. Its mostly for helping you with your first time using PlayOnLinux. I don't even use Winetricks anymore. I am planning on updating those guide too. If you follow all the steps here, Call of Duty 2...

    AMD Crossfire On Linux?

    If you are planning on gaming in Linux its practically a requirement. Anything newer than my GeForce 550 Ti will work just fine. I am able to play Mass Effect 2 just fine You have seen my guides, those are all tested on the 550 Ti.

    Crysis Revisited

    We'll see, I'm already assuming it isn't going to work. There were some responses on WineHQ about the patch not really fixing the memory leak. It apparently works but can make games really slow.

    Crysis Revisited

    Update on Crysis.... I am going to compile Wine 1.6-rc4 with the patch that claims to fix the memory problem. Then I am going to test it in PlayOnLinux. If it works, I can request PlayOnLinux to provide this custom Wine version so anyone can play Crysis.

    Here is a good post on the Mint forum: Multiarch You can probably find them in synaptics package manager too, but the Terminal way is always best.

    From what I read Ubuntu 32-bit is limited at 8 cores. Windows 7 32-bit is limited to 32 cores

    Crysis Revisited

    Bye the way, as far as I know 32-bit doesn't limit your CPU's but limits your RAM to 3.25 Gigs. But then again I don't have 8 cores... I'll have to research it

    Crysis Revisited

    Sorry your health is declining Daniel. Really sucks, specially when you can't play with your computers as much. As we grow I hope more people with different Operating Systems can also create guides so we can cover more ground. Whats interesting is some of these games work on any Distro as...

    Crysis Revisited

    Interesting, next time you try a guide let me know what the errors are. Normally if you have all the 32-bit libraries installed in your 64-bit Distro all you have to do is select 32-bit when creating a virtual drive. Everything else should be the same. Also, remember all of these older games...

    Crysis Revisited

    Good Question. Actually I'm trying to make my Guide non-Distro specific. Obviously I can't test them in different Distros, but in theory they should work in any major distro: Ubuntu, Mint, Debian, SuSE, Fedora As long as you have Wine and PlayOnLinux installed and your proprietary drivers...
