Just create your own laptop tray with a fan in it. That should keep it nice-n-cool.

Its a good idea to try out some other games first. There are a few free ones for Linux: 0A.D DOTA2 (Linux Steam) If these games run then I know you have the correct dependencies installed for games. Is your Slackware 64-bit or 32-bit?

Wow really!!!??? :eek: Microsoft wouldn't even offer you a conversion for Alan Wake? Come On! You paid for it, so if you move from one country to another there should be a solution. I just spent 6 hours over the weekend downgrading Office 2007 to Office 2003 because Microsoft is auditing the...

Finally! Double-Fine is going to feature their new Point-n-Click Adventure on Steam called: Broken Age If you love games like Monkey Island, Drawn, Back to the Future and hundreds more at BigFish... then you will definitely like Broken Age! Key Features: Pointing Clicking Original...

I just tried downloading, installing and launching LoL and everything is fine with Wine 1.7-LeagueofLegends I didn't actually launch a game, but I logged in just fine. Even without Internet Explorer 8

Finally someone noticed this post

I actually need to try League of Legends again now that I'm on Mint 16. What Linux distro are you running? Can you play any other games?

Yeah, thanks! I was wondering too. I ended up getting a Samsung 120 GB SSD drive for $120 I love it! Runs so fast with Mint

I can't believe Windows users are just as angry with Games for Windows Live as the rest of us! its actually kinda funny and ironic. I've had several problems with Windows games in PlayOnLinux due to GFWL Bioshock2 Fable 3 Divinity 2

Unfortunately Game of Thrones is not available at Humble Bundle anymore. So you will have to purchase it from Steam. So yes, you can use this guide for the Steam version of Game of Thrones

Yes, you have to purchase it. I got it on Humble Bundle with 5 other games for only $6.00 Otherwise I wouldn't have purchased it.

I do have this problem from time to time, but it's not consistent. Sometimes Borderlands crashes on exit and Lost Planet crashes on exit. But other times it closes just fine. I've even had problems with Steam alone not closing properly. I'll keep my eye on this and see if I have further...

Awesome guide by the way! I'm glad you are taking some time with these newer games. Try the Wine 1.7.10-CSMT maybe it will deliver more promising results. What kind of errors are you getting?

High Res Screenshots:

Lost Planet: Extreme Condition is one of those Xbox ports to PC by Microsoft, but never seemed to get the attention it deserved. Fight as Alex against an alien bug colony in search of the Green Eye. Fight on foot and in mechs as you battle on an icy cold planet against bug minions and bosses...

I always disable overlay in Steam settings. Works perfectly

You were absolutely right! Disabling the Steam Overlay solved the problem. So frustrating, but at least the games run fine without it. Long-term, how are games affected? I think games like Borderlands requires the Overlay to join an online game... at least thats how we do it

Yeah, it wouldn't hurt to try. I'm sure the Devs will eventually release a "store" version too. I'm going to test it with Wine 1.6.2 and 1.7.10 this weekend

For veteran users this is definitely important, but beginners would need to have libraries provided for them in advance. Until the become more comfortable at tweaking their system and doing some trial-n-error. I don't want to over-burden them any more than I already have. Some of my guides are...

I've had reports that disabling "peer-to-peer" doesn't fix the dgbhelp problem. There is a bug report on WineHQs about this. There have been similar reports on PlayOnLinux: dgbhelp Store Crash So far no fix yet. I'll try League of Legends again over the weekend
