    Drakensang HELP!

    Nope, it really sucks. Can't play Drakensang at all :( I've tried with the newest Wine 1.7.31 and the Qt5 error is gone, but the game refuses to update and launch. So I'm still waiting on someone to stumble on a fix or Wine to update and fix the "real" problem. I still think its Qt5 even though...

    Star Trek Online Guide

    Exactly! I love it when Wine does a great job and Arc installs your games. I'm going to try Swordsman again one day. its a HUGE download, but I really want it to work. Have you tried any of the other games like champions?

    Battlefield 2 & Patches Guide

    Yes, I'm very impressed with Wine and its ability to run older games like Battlefield 2. I still wonder how the flickering black textures can be fixed? They really look like polygonal grid textures. The flicker black on the ground only. Otherwise, it plays just like in Windows!

    Skyrim starts but does nothing more than that

    No way! Lord of the Rings online runs? For some reason I never looked into it on PlayOnLinux. Its free-to-play, so I'll have to give it a try as well. Those d3d "fixme's" are very suspect. I haven't run Skyrim in a while, but make sure the In-Game community overlay is turned off. Definitely...

    Where is everybody?

    Same here, I have some good ideas, but money is kinda critical to make a good mod. All of my mods were based on taking an old case and refurbing it into a new themed case. so those usually don't cost a whole lot. Its those technical mods with water cooling, 4 video cards, and LED's all over...

    FIFA Manager 13 on Linux

    AH HA! This is the problem... I have a very similar problem with Drakensang Online. It played flawlessly for years and now after they updated to Qt5 it doesn't launch at all Very frustrating. I'm now at the mercy of Wine developers to fix the Qt5 problem. Looks like FIFA is having the same...

    Skyrim starts but does nothing more than that

    I've always read that "fixme's" aren't usually a problem. I'm concerned about those ALSA errors... I have seen Alsa lockup or break a game before. Are your video drivers up-to-date? I don't have an AMD video card, so Its hard for me to make suggestions. Sadly, drivers for your video card can be...

    Discussion of systemd adoption by Debian, openrc, sysvinit

    Exactly, If it "killed" Linux, then it must have been WAY better than what I'm using now. ;)

    Where is everybody?

    Thanks! I missed working on Cases. I just don't have the money right now. Actually I only spent $8 on the armor case mod. Most of it was made with existing materials. I still have two cases to mod. One day I'll get started and do a pirate theme

    Where is everybody?

    Multiple Desktops is a great idea. Then you can run Arch on one, Mint on another, SteamOS on one more and some console emulators on another... I was talking to someone about those Industrial Knitting machines and how the knit patterns for you. That would be awesome if you could plug it into...

    AppDB Comments Deleted?

    You are probably right. Their support must be "encouraged" to not support anything but Wine its-self, but not mandatory. I'll never understand the "purist" mentality with open source and Linux. How can you be "purist" if open source encourages communities to make changes and improve it? Hence...

    Check this Hearthstone page on AppDB... Scroll down and see the PlayOnLinux steps Wine support is a conundrum They don't support PlayOnLinux they do support PlayOnLinux Which is it? Come on... I know different people support different games for Wine, but it appears they aren't even following...

    FIFA Manager 13 on Linux

    No problem, its good you got Origin to install and the game to download. Also, I'm happy to see you have a GeForce video card. That is too our advantage. I was talking with someone else about FIFA and was going to download the demo through Origin, but never got to it. I still have the reminder...

    FIFA Manager 13 on Linux

    As soon as you mention Origin I already know there are problems with it and PlayOnLinux/Wine. I have been able to successfully install Origin, but was never able to completely download and launch a game. I've tried with Battlefield 2 and Kingdoms of Amalur. Both failed miserably. Can you post...

    Linux Graphics drivers and Mesa Library now support Direct3D 9, enabling better performance in WINE

    That is GREAT! Of course my first curiosity is... does it perform better than proprietary? I will find out in time

    World Of Warcraft On Linux

    Kinda, for the most part, any direct x 9 game runs really well. I would hate for you to download all 30 Gigs again and it still doesn't work. That is a risk you will have to take. On the other hand, I have backed up games from Steam and restored them many times. Even in PlayOnLinux. Never had...

    Exactly... I post here, on PlayOnLinux and reddit, but it would be nice to post on AppDB as well. There are a lot of gamers posting tips and bugs there. I shouldn't feel like I should avoid posting because I just want to help other people have success with their games.
