    Champions Online - Moving game files from Windows to Wine

    No problem. the worst that can happen is the game won't launch. To be safe, copy the .pref file first and rename it. This way you can always put it back if the game doesn't work properly. I have a different system than you... Actually I looked back through our conversation and it appears I...

    Champions Online - Moving game files from Windows to Wine

    Maybe try unchecking "virtual desktop" It might cause more problems... Also, maybe there is a config file you can edit to update video options.

    Champions Online - Moving game files from Windows to Wine

    Do these errors appear after you try to make video changes? Are you using the virtual desktop setting in Wine Configuration? I played Champions some more this morning and its running great. I will post a guide next week, but its almost identical to Neverwinter and Star Trek Online Can you at...

    Age Of Wushu Guide

    SGP is an anti-cheat process installed by Age Of Wushu: Snail Game Protect I wonder if this is new? I didn't originally have any problems with it. Definitely try using the Wine Manager in PlayOnLinux, download Wine 1.7.47 and Wine 1.7.47staging Then go to Configure and change from Wine 1.5.19...

    Steamwebhelper.exe Crash

    I don't use the Steam Store in Wine either. I mostly purchase games online: steampowered.com Then I go to my library and download the game. This error appeared recently and I have a post on PlayOnLinux.com with not responses yet. I thought I had a post, but can't find it

    Why We Want Native Ports Only (Gaming On Linux)

    That really sucks. Everyone knows that most Linux gamers still have to use Windows at work. Either way I am supporting Windows whether I like it or not.

    Steamwebhelper.exe Crash

    What version of Wine are you using? I was testing a Necrovision recently in Steam and I would get this error and the debug acted like Steam crashed, even thought it didn't crash. I have seen a few solutions but they are a pain. One is to find the SteamWebHelper.exe and rename it, but as soon...

    Magicka Guide

    If you installed the directx fullsetup packages, then d3dx11 should already be installed. In fact, you might want to start over with Steam and only install d3dx9 because Magicka should run just fine on direct X 9. Its been a while since I have tested Magicka. I'm not sure of the status of XNA...

    Steamwebhelper.exe Crash

    I have been getting those errors about SteamWebHelper.exe as well I've searched online and even posted on the PlayOnLinux forums, but nobody seems to know I did notice that even though I get these errors, it doesn't affect Steam or my games. What I have read is that SteamWebHelper.exe is part of...

    Battlefront 2 Guide

    Thank you! I had a lot of run re-visiting the series! I'm surprised how well it ran, even without the CD ROM in the drive. Unfortunately I was unable to join a Linux (Wine) Hosted game on my LAN Only the Windows computer was able to join the Linux (Wine) Hosted game. I have all the firewalls...

    Why We Want Native Ports Only (Gaming On Linux)

    I still don't fully understand that... I am not in Linux every time I purchase a game, so how do I insure that game purchase is considered a Linux purchase? I have a feeling they have statistics for downloads as well as purchases. I've purchased many games from my windows machine at work and...

    Need a Video Card

    One of my computers has a old GeForce 8800 GTS and it finally died. Started showing all kinds of artifacts and crashing games. Now I am in need of a replacement card. Let me know if any of you have an extra video card that will play Team Fortress 2 and Left4Dead 2. I prefer a GeForce card, but...

    Champions Online - Moving game files from Windows to Wine

    No, I think that is the terminal output When you launch the game in PlayOnLinux, instead of clicking "Run" Click "Debug" instead By the way, I downloaded Champions Online yesterday and was able to play it this morning just fine. One think you need to do is turn off "On Demand Patching" in the...

    Champions Online - Moving game files from Windows to Wine

    I haven't tested Champions Online yet, but I think its a Cryptic game just like Neverwinter and Star Trek Online. If it is, then it will install and update just fine in PlayOnLinux without Steam or Arc clients. Unfortunately the direct link to the setup isn't working...

    Awesome, I hope they just create a whole new program and give it the same tools that Flash had. It was really cool, total sandbox You could create a container with anything in it like animation, a logo, a picture Then you can put this container anywhere you want and add code to it. You can link...
