CoD5 v1.6 with wine-1.1.30 by Temar on Thursday October 1st 2009, 8:27 I had to use a clean wine environment to get it to install. 1. Create COD5 WINE-Environment: 1.a) export WINEPREFIX="$HOME/.wine_cod5" 1.b) wineprefixcreate 2. Install Game and Patch: 2.a) wine setup.exe 2.b) wine CoDWaW-1.2-PatchSetup.exe 2.c) wine CoDWaW-1.2-1.4-PatchSetup.exe 2.d) wine CoDWaW-1.4-1.5-PatchSetup.exe 2.e) wine CoDWaW-1.5-1.6-PatchSetup.exe 3. Copy required DDLs 3.a) Download XAudio2_0.dll: rapidshare.de/files/41317359/XAudio2_0.dll.html 3.b) Download Registry Settings: bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=18560 to sound.reg 3.c) cp XAudio2_0.dll $HOME/.wine_cod5/drive_c/windows/system32/ 3.d) regedit sound.reg 4. Get NoCD/DVD Patch 4.a) Get Patch from www.gamecopyworld.com 4.b) cp CoDWaW.exe $HOME/.wine_cod5/drive_c// 5. Run it You might want to delete the temporary/installer files from $HOME/.wine_cod5/drive_c/windows/temp/ and $HOME/.wine_cod5/drive_c/windows/Installer/ as the installer does not delete them and they are HUGE. You might also want to get the "d3dx9_37.dll" and copy it to $HOME/.wine_cod5/drive_c/windows/system32/. I have the feeling that I get better fps with this DLL instead of the builtin wine version. I could not get sound to work at all. I even unpacked all the game's IWD files and converted the game sounds from ADPCM WAV to uncompressed 16bit PCM WAV files. Unfortunately the game does not seem to support uncompressed PCM files anymore. With the converted sound files I get the error message "Streaming file does not have the PRIV chunk" in the game's console log. [post new] [reply to this]

How to get CODWAW 1.0 - 1.4 to install. by Justin Breithaupt on Saturday September 12th 2009, 14:41 I had some very interesting "Fun" getting this to work. I don't want anyone to experience the same torture and I didn't see these instructions posted anywhere so here you go: justuselinux.blogspot.com/2009/09/how-to-install-call-of-duty-world-at.html I'm still toying with the idea of finding an app that will configure the sound devices correctly. I'm even trying Windows Media Player 11. Whatever it takes to get sound. [post new] [reply to this]

1.5 version works without patching Wine by Joško on Monday August 10th 2009, 10:20 Hello, after downloading a bunch of patches to CoD5 and patching it to 1.5 version I've successfuly ran it. Very playable, AAx4 AF max on 1680*1050 on a 3.0GHz Quad core with GTX260 and 185.18.29 nVidia drivers! I've noticed I already got XAudio file in system32 and just downloaded the registry needed. Installed the game, patched it and runs. Sound doesn't work and you can't create a online account (the game can't seem to connect online?) but that's maybe my own problem to fix.Also I didn't went pass mission one since playing without sound isn't my style.

Working, but unplayable ! by ryan on Monday January 26th 2009, 17:29 Got it working as per instructions but the frame rate is incredibly poor, less than 1 FPS ! Works fine in windows fps wise on same hardware. Is there something im missing in the registry that may speed it up ? I added the videomemory option as it complained of "out of memory" and fbo in the wine/directx section, the fbo option helped a little. Perhaps my system lacks the raw power to force a reasonable frame rate under wine ? COD 4 is certainly playable though . Sabayon4 lite(Gentoo) Wine 1.1.13 patched AMD 3200 64 Gainward 7800GS+ 512Mb 2GB RAM Keep up the good work folks, im sure you will get it running sweet eventually :D [post new] [reply to this]

Got it working by Rico on Wednesday January 7th 2009, 10:02 - I've installed the game with wine-1.1.11 (current git seems to be broken). - installed directx9 via winetricks - copied the XAudio2_0.dll from a XP installation - added a few registry keys for XAudio2_0.dll REGEDIT4 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Classes\CLSID\{fac23f48-31f5-45a8-b49b-5225d61401aa}] @="\"XAudio2\" \n" [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Classes\CLSID\{fac23f48-31f5-45a8-b49b-5225d61401aa}\InProcServer32] @="C:\\\\WINDOWS\\\\system32\\\\XAudio2_0.dll" "ThreadingModel"="Both" [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Classes\CLSID\{6f6ea3a9-2cf5-41cf-91c1-2170b1540063}] @="AudioReverb" [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Classes\CLSID\{6f6ea3a9-2cf5-41cf-91c1-2170b1540063}\InProcServer32] @="C:\\\\WINDOWS\\\\system32\\\\XAudio2_0.dll" "ThreadingModel"="Both" - applied this patch to the current git tree diff --git a/dlls/dsound/dsound.c b/dlls/dsound/dsound.c index 7032774..b82b6fb 100644 --- a/dlls/dsound/dsound.c +++ b/dlls/dsound/dsound.c @@ -1600,9 +1600,9 @@ HRESULT DirectSoundDevice_CreateSoundBuffer( if (!IsEqualGUID(&pwfxe->SubFormat, &KSDATAFORMAT_SUBTYPE_PCM)) { - if (!IsEqualGUID(&pwfxe->SubFormat, &GUID_NULL)) +/* if (!IsEqualGUID(&pwfxe->SubFormat, &GUID_NULL)) FIXME("SubFormat %s not supported right now.\n", debugstr_g - return DSERR_INVALIDPARAM; + return DSERR_INVALIDPARAM;*/ } if (pwfxe->Samples.wValidBitsPerSample > dsbd->lpwfxFormat->wBitsPe { - after all I started the game and it runs, it isn't enjoyable yet, but I'd say it is playable (no sound) [post new] [reply to this]

Gold like CoD 4 by Daniel Spies on Wednesday November 26th 2008, 18:06 I'm wondering if this game has the potential to get to gold status, as it's using the same engine as CoD 4? If yes, I'm going to buy it... Anyone has an idea? [post new] [reply to this]
