Linux dist: Ubuntu 8.04

Here is my how-to @ Wine-Reviews:

The low framerate and the occasional framerate drop are caused by the screencasting program!

  • Moneymeng: What Wine version? What graphics gard? Check appdb . winehq . org if someone have similar problems. And please post Wine debugger log if you post a bug @ bugzilla!

  • How Did you make it work do you think i could do it with my ubuntu?

  • can u help me just tell me were i can find change language cuss i got the game but its in russian or sometin pls help meeee???

  • Linux in my opinion is for more "serious" stuff not gaming...wanna play games, buy a PS3

  • If I skip through the opening videos mine loads just as fast under Vista 64 bit with 8GB of ram as it does on my Linux box with the same hardware (as close to the same hardware as possible anyway)

  • When I played it I had some really strange shadow problems.

  • My bad. I didn't mean M$ made HOMM, if they did you'd get blue screens of death :D I was just pointing out that their own programs run faster on linux
