How To Play Quake Live:
idea from: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1080957
1. Use winetricks:
$sh winetricks msxml3 dotnet20 gdiplus riched20 riched30 vcrun2005sp1 flash firefox3 directx9
2. Copy the following from a windows XP installation:
* secur32.dll
* dnsapi.dll
* rpcrt4.dll
to your .wine/drive_c/windows/system32 directory. You also have to go into winecfg and set library overrides for secur32, dnsapi, and rpcrt4 (`native then builtin' will do)
3. Then installthe QuakeLiveNP.msi with the following command:
wine msiexec.exe /i QuakeLiveNP.msi
4. Also downloadand install PunkBuster from:
http://www.evenbalance.com/index.php?page=pbsetup.php
Then with firefox login in quakelive.com and play!
Note: The first time I launched the training game in windowedmode (default) but i couldn't move the mouse. I tried to fullscreen but the game crashed. The second try i opened the web with firefox in fullscreen (F11 key) and the game launched right. I play in fullscreen mode (Press ALT+ENTER) in 1280x1024 with high details, same performance as in windows XP.
Sorry for my poor english :)
