HOWTO Multiplayer To get multiplayer working, place the DLLs in this archive in Wine's windows/system32 directory. Then, start winecfg and add dll overrides (native, builtin) for the following DLLs: dplayx, dpnet, dpnhpast and dpwsockx. Be sure to use Wine 0.9.27 or newer. NOTE: The host should leave the game last, otherwise it will hang for the other players when they try to leave.

Multiplayer and DirectPlay by Thomas G on Tuesday April 2nd 2013, 10:53 Just installing and overriding directplay-DLLs from the archive didn't work for me. I found the following solution: 1) With Stronghold already installed open the wine configuration dialog and remove any application specific settings for stronghold (if any) 2) Open a terminal shell 3) Make sure, winetricks is installed, e.g. typing "which winetricks" should return something like "/usr/bin/winetricks" depending on your distro 4) Now type "winetricks directplay" This downloads all necessary files from the microsoft servers, configures the DLL overrides and (most important) does some registry configuration changes using regedit. This did the trick for me (tested under Linux Mint 14 with wine Ver. 1.4.1-0ubuntu1 and winetricks Ver. 0.0+20120912).

[post new] [reply to this] Steam by Ross Fleming on Monday February 6th 2012, 15:34 This works fine in Steam too. Brilliant :) [post new] [reply to this] OS X by Andy on Sunday February 5th 2012, 15:27 Installed flawlessly. No issues discovered so far. [post new] [reply to this] sound crashes when game starts by tof duhayon on Thursday May 13th 2010, 8:04 there's an odd echo when the game intro begins, then the sound usually crashes when the game is played. tested with stronghold v1.2 and WineHQ 1.1.42 on Ubuntu Lucid Lynx [post new] [reply to this] Program Crashes when virt. Desktop @ 1024x768 is forced by nxxs on Friday January 15th 2010, 11:50 Happens here too, Ubu 9.10, wine .36 and a cracked Stronghold v. 1.2 I went the other way tho, forcing a 800x600 virt. Desktop and the Game works now. [post new] [reply to this] RE: Program Crashes when virt. Desktop @ 1024x768 is forced by nxxs on Friday January 29th 2010, 6:10 Flawless Stronghold Install by Skaught B. on Friday June 27th 2008, 7:49 Installing Stronghold was my very first attempt at using Wine (1.0.0-1ubuntu2~hardy1), and I was frankly astonished at how easy it was. I wasn't even following instructions for Stronghold, but for its sequel Crusader, and everything worked fine. - Install from original CD - Update/patch to 1.2 - Using No-CD crack of executable Played through a couple of missions, and the game performed as expected. No audio or video problems. No hangs, no crashes. I'm impressed. Having all of my old game suddenly become available again is making Ubuntu much more comfortable. [post new] [reply to this]
