    Exactly, I always test games in newer Wine versions as well, but if it doesn't work, then I resort to older 1.5.18 or 1.4.1 versions. Nothing wrong with that. I do hope the newer versions will RULE ALL one day, but its hard to re-test all of my games over again with newer versions. I may test...

    Final Fantisy VII

    I also noticed all the font errors you were getting with the Sid Meier's game too.

    Final Fantisy VII

    Wow, congrats on running Final Fantasy VII the first time. That almost never happens! :p There is a page on AppDB for Final Fantasy VII Steam release All other versions are "Garbage" But the Steam version has two "Platnium" reports. I wonder why the mouse doesn't work? You could probably...

    So you think they won't delete my comments if I post the version that are NOT working? Agree completely. My ultimate goal is to get my games running any way possible. I don't care which Wine, Patched Wine, Library or GUI I have to use. If it is playable, I want to show everyone how to do it...

    True, for development to function consistently, old programming should no longer be supported because you would never move forward... but what if the current "stable" version of Wine doesn't work for a specific game? Seems like the big problem resides around open-source. Since Wine is...

    Here is yet another example of my comments being deleted: My comments basically say that Hard Reset is playable and here info on how I did it. Why would you want to delete that? Even if its out-of-date, there is still some good information there... I get emails all the time about my comments...

    Jedi Knight II: Jedi Outcast Guide

    Yes, it was Jedi Academy. I think that when in 2003 Lucas Arts started loosing focus on the gaming industry... Battlefront was kind of a flop and Battlefront II didn't do much better. Since other games like Half-Life 2 and Unreal Tournament 2004 were offering something new graphically and...

    Man, yet another one! Yeah, debug would be very helpful. Is this also Steam? What version of Wine is recommended on WineHQs? Checked WineHQ's and most of the "Platinum" ratings are using really old versions of Wine... 1.1.x 1.3.x

    Jedi Knight II: Jedi Outcast Guide

    Jedi Knight is a great Star Wars FPS franchise beginning with Dark Forces in 1995. Once again you play Kyle Katarn who is a mercinary fighting against the Republic. This time he has a partner in the Rebellion, Jan Ors. But will you be able to defend the Rebellion against Dark Jedi Desann in...

    Warning Chromebook Users

    Yes of course. Just yank the hard drive and format on another computer. I'm not sure how that will affect the firmware though.. so its at your own risk. If the firmware is damaged then no Operating System will reside on that hard drive. With ChrUbuntu Unity is the only Desktop Environment, but...

    Desura keeps crashing!

    Dang... I downloaded a few more games and they launched as well. I only crashed on me once, otherwise Desura is working fine. Then again I am on 12.04 which may be more stable for Desura. I can't wait for Ubuntu 14.04 because that means Mint 17 will finally be here. I'm waiting and waiting and...

    Warning Chromebook Users

    I have been using ChrUbuntu (Ubuntu Precise 12.04) on my Acer C710 Chromebook for over a year now. I had to switch Chromebook to "Developer Mode" so I could install it. Ran perfectly, updated and even played a few games (Torchlight, Wakfu, Half-Life 1, Lugaru) One day I came home (after my wife...

    Jedi Outcast Linux Port?

    Turns out the GIT files work perfectly! I've been testing it for a few days and no problems. I have also written a guide and will publish on Friday. Its pretty awesome when the community ports a game to Linux.

    Gotcha... either way, use Wine 1.5.18 to install dotnet, then change to Wine 1.6.2 or 1.7.8 to install Steam and your game. Cause we know all other Wine's are broken for Steam :D
