Howto: If you're using ATI hardware there may be even worse problems since their drivers suck (for now)
Use Wine 1.1.5 or newer with MouseWarpOverride=force. The mouse will not work properly in the menu. You will have to navigate with the keyboard after left-clicking once.
Put d3dx9_36.dll and XINPUT1_3.dll in windows/system32. You can get them from a DLL site like dll-files.com
Set Shaders to High, else you will get graphical problems
You will get extremely bright HDR. So add r_glow = 0 to My Documents/My Games/Crysis/game.cfg. Remove write-permissions to stop Crysis from butchering the file at every restart
Issues:
FPS are even worse than on Windows (~15 FPS on a 8600GT low settings except shaders). Don't even try to run the game on hardware lower than a GF8 it will not work!
Severe graphical corruption
Sound may vanish under some circumstances
Movies don't have sounds at all
Crysis will freeze whenever it feels like it
FPS will drop to below 1 at some resolutions
Also FPS may suddenly drop at any point, usually accompanied by graphical corruption. Restart the game and reload the level to fix this
The patcher will not work in Wine

Crysis crashes after a few seconds of gameplay
by Hikayu on Sunday December 27th 2009, 5:40
Kay: I have a decent system, could play crysis when I had windows on high settings;
Wine version: 1.1.32;
Followed How-To;
Game runs in menu prefectly;
Press Single-Player;
Game doesn't even reach 60% on the loading screen with high settings.Bah!;
Changed everything to low;
Game loads but crashes half-way through the movie;
Set Object Quality to medium;
Yayz game runz;
Oh noez! Game crashes 28 seconds later T-T;
Tried all sorts of ways, none works;
So, what's the prob? Sry for the "Programming style journal" I put on.
//Notes: I'm running Ubuntu 9.10, and on wine I emulated a virtual desktop.
Crash when loading the map at 80%... Unfortunately can't patch Wine with a patch which should fix this since with Debian Squeeze/Testing you can't compile Wine due to absence of IA32-libs (not /emul/ia32-libs but /libs32).

Silver is too high imo. There are still graphic bugs, game is working slower than it should and game crashes from time to time. There is really no reason to rate it silver, it should remain bronze until some more bugs will be fixed.
just a note

hi folk,
got this machine:
opensuse 11, 64bit, KDE 3.7/4.1
wine 1.1.9
Play on linux 3.2 as gui
amd3200+64
2GB RAM
SATA 1.0 no raid
NVIDIA 8600 GTS 256MB
install and patching is fine, hints are working.
it seems the game needs more hardware-power than i own.
in this configuration, for me the game's not playable...bad. update to nvidia9600gt could fix the graphic-problems?
regards
bobmarlex

Start error
by ZeXx86 on Sunday July 6th 2008, 7:11
I make all what is in HOWTO post, but I get error dialog window with R6034 at start. Before it, I have to start "vcredist_x86.exe", because it display few SPI_* errors. I apply one patch to code (what is described in howto), but it dont helps .. I think, that I need ntdll patch or somehing else. Well, there is my wine output .. pastebin.com/f1f67cb83 .. Somebody know, where could be problem ? Btw wine version is 1.1.0 on Gentoo Linux, thanks
Crysis Installs
by Matthew on Friday April 18th 2008, 12:55
i have managed to get Crysis to install istelf by copying all the data from the DVD to Wine.C:\ and running it from there (it looks like it's not copying data across, but it is) . I just can't get the executable to run under wine. Does anyone think using an alternative .exe from gamecopyworld.com might work? do u think that the copy protection could be giving Wine a hard time?
Wine 0.9.53 broke the menu.
by Sigurdur Jo. on Sunday January 13th 2008, 21:00
I've just updated to 0.9.53 and now the menu isn't showing up at the end of the splash movies. Something has to be done to get this back on track... also, can anyone confirm this? or is it maybe just me?
