    Soldier of Fortune OpenGL error

    wow very nice screenshots! Try downloading the gallium nine wine version and try that as well. I think you confirmed it... this game just won't run on your AMD chip. I don't know exactly why, but it just won't.

    Soldier of Fortune OpenGL error

    Oh I totally forgot, you are using Wine alone. Wait until tomorrow and then follow my manual installation guide. The thing with Wine is if you use a wineprefix for several games and install different dependencies (overrides) it can break other games. I still think this is a driver issue, but...

    Soldier of Fortune OpenGL error

    I saw that. I replied as well. I always do a manual installation for all of my games. I never use PlayOnLinux installers/scripts. Tomorrow morning I am posting a step-by-step guide for Soldier Of Fortune Community Edition. Please check our homepage to see it. I guess the only thing I never...

    Atari's New Console

    Its strange to me as well because almost all of the atari/MS DOS/arcade games are available online for free at archive.org So why would I want a console with a bunch of games I can play already? I guess if Steam and native Linux games can run on it, that would be nice as well, but SteamBox...

    Atari's New Console

    Looks like Steambox has a competitor! Ataribox is a new gaming console by Atari and is built with Linux and Steam compatibility. http://mailchi.mp/ataribox/first-look-ataribox-design-36241?e=316bc4d53e If Steambox isn't successful why would Atari attempt the same business model?

    I can't wait to play De Blob on GOG or even De Blob 2 because it is co-op.

    Soldier of Fortune OpenGL error

    Wow, that is a big log! There are a bunch of GL related errors and pixel errors. There is definitely something wrong. At this point it may be better to post on a Gallium Nine forum or even Reddit to see if anyone with a similar AMD card has the same problems. Since the game is free, they can...

    What did you find about Gallium Nine? I think it might be something related to drivers as well...

    Soldier of Fortune OpenGL error

    Hmm, I'm not sure??? You may have to re-install the game and make sure to select Windows XP for the operating system. I noticed in the video settings OpenGL is automatically selected. So it may support Direct X as well. I've never played Soldier of Fortune before, so this is all new ground...

    Soldier of Fortune OpenGL error

    I turned off the background music. I normally do that in games to increase realism. I only have one AMD card and do not use it anymore. All the rest of my PC's have Nvidia cards. I have read about special Wine versions called Gallium Nine or Gallium 9. You may want to research them because...

    Soldier of Fortune OpenGL error

    I gave it a try in PlayOnLinux and it ran perfectly for me! I'm using a GeForce GTX 950 Nividia 384 drivers. So my guess is AMD or OpenSource drivers are causing the artifacts you are experiencing. Here is my video:

    Soldier of Fortune OpenGL error

    Awesome! I will try the Community Edition this weekend and will report my findings. The main reason I am hopeful is because the Platinum ratings on WineHQs There has to be a way to get it to run, specially because its an older game.
