    Stellar Overload Kickstarter

    Good enough for me! It just means we'll have to wait as we usually do.

    Assassin's Creed II (Finally!)

    Whoa, how did you find this post? I just happened to be looking at it while supporting someone on the PlayOnLinux forums... I never played through the entire game, but it ran very nicely on my GeForce 550 Ti. As all the game do... I plan to test Brotherhood and Revelations in the future. All...

    Skyrim No Sound Fix (APU LAPTOPS)

    Yup, right here is fine. Any Guide that is not a full installation for games, just post them here

    Neverwinter Free MMO Guide

    That is a lot of security errors I hope it isn't related to the same problem I've been having with Swordsman. How far do you get? Does it crash or not start at all? Also, have you tried with other versions of Wine? 1.7.24

    The Sims 4 Create A Sim demo

    Welcome to the forum Rob Harvey! Of course, Visual C++ 2013 is too new for Wine... who knows how long it will take for them to reverse engineer it? Sucks for us, but as usual, its just a waiting game. I would rather Wine devs work on Direct X 10 instead.

    PlayOnLinux update 2014 and PortMyApps

    Good point. A lot of posts on PlayOnLinux.com forums end up being AMD drivers, 32-bit libraries, old hardware, missing windows components (libraries) or underpowered hardware.

    Skyrim No Sound Fix (APU LAPTOPS)

    I moved your "no sound" guide to Linux Guides (other) forum since its not a full game installation guide. Not sure why its not on the front page anymore. I'll ask the admins.

    Great news for Baldur's Gate style RPG lovers

    Pillars of Eternity looks graphically amazing! What kind of gameplay is it? Turn-based?

    PlayOnLinux update 2014 and PortMyApps

    I would hope that is the goal of developers and publishers. If it was my game, I would want to make sure it was fully compatible before releasing it. So maybe the "myth" develops from the community whining about the game not running as well as they would like. Not realizing the amount of...

    Gauntlet

    How did you get Risen 3??!! Thats awesome! Did you have to turn off the shadows?

    Gauntlet

    Exactly And there are still people with older video cards that are only direct x 9 compatible. Maybe they upgraded to Vista or Win7, but still have that old card. Adding direct x compatibility is a good idea. I know developers probably don't want to develop for old stuff, but it widens their...

    WINE CSMT patches is not all about performance

    Welcome to the forums Buwaro. So if you save it as a .reg file, can you run in with Wine or PlayOnLinux in the wineprefix and it will automatically install in the registry just like in Windows?

    The Witcher 3 Wild Hunt

    Yes it is! I can't wait for the day when video games actually have real character damage. You know, like a sword getting stuck in the minion's rib cage, or every cut removes pieces of flesh, damage to limbs makes them unusable.... I've seen limbs get cut-off, I've seen battle damage, but I'm...

    Great news for Baldur's Gate style RPG lovers

    Nice! I wonder if they are considering Linux for any of their games?

    Gauntlet

    Dang, so there is no direct x 9 compatability at all? Why are developers doing that? They are killing potential profits because there are still a lot of Windows XP gamers out there.

    Skryrim Has Sound

    Yeah, post what you did different from my Guide. If you want, I can add your tips to the end of my guide as well, but I know you are using Wine alone and I'm using PlayOnLinux.

    PlayOnLinux update 2014 and PortMyApps

    Thats great! I absolutely agree about developers. The more developers know how to port games to Linux the more Linux games we'll have. Unfortunately I know its not all about quality right now. I'm sure most developers just want their game ported the easiest way possible. Just so they can say...

    Change of career?

    GOG Careers Once a programmer always a programmer. You should be able to learn stuff like Python and languages. Then help port games to Linux. How cool would that be?
