Linux Gaming: F.E.A.R 2

[Ficker0180]

lol i thought it wouldnt work anywhere

how d u made it?

[kprofscrts]

first of all runing a game well enough in wine isnt good enough. Gamers like to play what they paid for. Although wine can run lot of games, without issues, it's best to stick with a dual boot if you really want LInux and Windows. WIndows is best os for games, there is no question about it. This is mainly because of the funding and the B.S monopoly system it has maintained. Wine is a terrible program in my opinion, it wont even run age of empires properly without issues. Stick with Win for games

[mikeccuk2006]

Ubuntu/ Gentoo/ Arch linux/ which of the 3 run better on wine dx games??

[IWorshipBellaDonna]

@mikeccuk2006 prob gentoo or arch,

[Hornilope]

why not just install windows?

[IWorshipBellaDonna]

@Hornilope b.c its slow, get viruses, and cost money while linux is free, faster, and does not cost you a dime... want me to continue

[Hornilope]

it doesnt cost money if you pirate it & you only get malware if youre not careful

[Tiars666tiamat]

@Hornilope because we are cooler

[MusicalDesert]

@Hornilope Because it sucks.

[josephschwenker]

How is it that you are always able to get almost every game in existence running well in Wine?  ;)

[DaweyYT]

Nice. ^^

[mayhemtv]

Very nice! Runs very well...

[childofbodom01]

I also hate it when you can't skip cut scenes

;)

[LegoGunExpert]

can you run games through wine on full screen or just in a window please reply because i think of getting ubuntu on my pc and im just wondering is it worth it!!! Thanks!!! :)

[childofbodom01]

I would think you can play it on full screen somehow but he just didn't to prove it was on Ubuntu.

That said, I've never done this so don't know.

[AlbertoEAF]

Are you kidding? Check his other videos...

[jimmy101112000]

It will work both in full and in window modes. I ran Counter strike source without problems. Worked great for me. Some programs do not run at all or it will run then error out but it does get better and better. I would just recommend you get a second HDD to install it to learn how to use it. Google will be your friend if you don't mind reading websites on how to. But as for me I will drop Windows like a bad habbit in a few years. I will probably keep it on 1 pc. But the rest will be linux.

[LegoGunExpert]

I found a way to try out different OS without harming my PC at all!!! It's a program called virtual PC which allows you to install OS on a virtual PC by taking a bit of your PC's ram which is great!!!

[jimmy101112000]

Yeah but virtual pc is limited by emulating the common video card and sound card back in the old days. The real deal works much faster. But you are right to just to see how it works before installing it on a real HDD. Also used for as for a testing platform.

[LegoGunExpert]

Thanks for all the useful info I will download ubuntu tommorow and test it if I have some spare time :) You have been great help for me with all the info and fast respond time :D OK i gues thats all i wanted to say (write) i subscribe you :)

[drinkbudyXD]

lol you can try out linux with a live cd almost all of em have this feature... this way you can try out everything and its faster than virtual pc or any program like it

[AlbertoEAF]

Windowed and full-screen

[Fallingup899]

Yes in the wine config. you can chose run in DX9/10 window or full screen. with the DX? it makes it to where you mouse doesn't leave the screen as well.

[drinkbudyXD]

and its better to be able to run any game in (at least that works) in window mode,even games that don't have this feature at all

[Vindix007]

DaweyYT, do you know if Painkiller Overdose works ok on Wine?

[DaweyYT]

See my Painkiller Overdose video ;)

But that was done a time ago, and the screencast made the performance quite bad.

[dudeeeeee16]

cheating bastard.....this is FEAR 2 demo :))

[DaweyYT]

Yeah, I said so in the video... But the retail version also works (but you maybe have to apply a no-cd crack). :)

[Youareatroller]

@dudeeeeee16 NO SHIT READ THE DESC

[MaverickMGP]

How do I install DirectX in Linux?

[NSLW2]

[massac78THE2nd]

[DaweyYT]

[LalalandE2008]

[TheyCallMeConfucious]

[DaweyYT]

My Logitech Z10 speakers has a display on them :)

[zamzam90]

Prototype with wine would be cool (:

[DaweyYT]

Hmm, it seems like it doesn't work at the moment (according to the AppDB). :/

[kaltsinho]

[DaweyYT]
