    Drawn Series & Big Fish Games Guide

    Yeah, I'll try the demo too and see if I get the same error. Sometimes Wine doesn't translate things properly, but the could still run.

    Did anyone manage to install Big Fish Games console in Linux Mint?

    Great! Wait until Friday morning, I'm still working on the guide. Been playing Drawn for a week now and it runs great. Haven't tried any other games yet. Most hidden object games should still support Direct X 9, so they "should" run just fine.

    Interest in an install guide for Neverwinter Online?

    I played online with my daughter a few years back. We played every morning for months. It was a LOT of fun! In fact, that was the second MMO we played together. The first was Firefall, which we liked also, but Neverwinter was a lot more fun. Well actually the "real" first was Drakensang...

    Awesome! What a cool game, and love that it still runs in Wine. I wonder if DXVK would give us some additional performance?

    These Vulkan packages should do it: libvulkan1 libvulkan1:i386

    Yeah, I probably need to update our Guide. Did you have to use DXVK to run it?

    Battlefield 2 & Patches Guide

    Wow, very strange. Good troubleshooting skills. I would have gone back to 1.8 or 1.6.2, but never that far back. Its crazy those older versions of Wine still work!

    If you are using the Lutris 3.12 staging 64-bit Wine version, the Windows Vulkan packages are already installed. But you definitely need to install Linux Vulkan too. Were you able to follow this guide: DXVK

    Red Faction Guerrilla Guide

    Its a fairly large game, I think it was like 30 Gigabytes, so it may take 15 minutes depending on the speed of your hard drive. I don't exactly remember because I only installed it once. You can also download the files again just to be sure they aren't corrupted

    Battlefield 2 & Patches Guide

    What??? That doesn't make sense... Are you installing the 5.1 patch that removes DRM? So strange, at least you got it working. The last time I played I was using Wine 3.0, but the game was already installed.

    Sorry, I don't remember as I only installed it once. Its normal to not see a loading/installing bar or seeing it as completed but the installer continues. Does it ever finish?

    Battlefield 2 & Patches Guide

    Yes, I've experience the black screen, that is because BF2 is trying to launch with a different resolution than the desktop. Try to adjust the config files to match the resolution to your Linux Desktop resolution. Select a resolution to match your Linux desktop Note: The game will play...

    Yeah, I thought I would keep it simple in the title, but I added it in the description. Not sure about patches... do you have the original?

    You probably need to add this PPA first so the driver manager can see them:

    Battlefield 2 & Patches Guide

    Yes, this is a common issue with older games. Sometimes I have to Alt+Tab several times before it open full-screen Are you using the Virtual Desktop? In the past I used the Wine Virtual Desktop for every game, but a Mint update broke it and I haven't used it since. So if you are using it, try...
