Description
First and second beta phase.
Selected Test Results (selected in 'Test Results' table below)

What works
Installing, starting, login, playing game (everything)


What does not
My machine (Intel i5, GeForce GTS 250, 4gb DDR3) is having performance issues. Lowering graphics settings helps reduce the problem, but performance is way worse that it should be with this hardware.


What was not tested
Nothing I believe


Additional Comments

Applied both patches mentioned below, using wine 1.2rc7 and ubuntu 10.04 32-bit. Emulating a window as large as my screen to solve problems with dual monitors. Without that, it all looks pushed together (screenshot: http://mikau.se/Screenshot.png ) and it won't respond to mouse input.

HOWTO
This patch is included in Wine 1.2, so you don't need to patch it.

This is a short tutorial on­ how to run the Starcraft II Beta under Wine. The tutorial assumes that you run Ubuntu. It was tested on 9.10 (Karmic) and 10.04 (Lucid), but it can be­ modified to work with other distributions as well.
The Beta installer works just fine under the latest development release of wine (1.2rc7) but sc2 will show a black screen at startup. Because of this we'll have to download the sources for wine, patch them manually and compile. We'll do all this through the terminal (Alt + F2, type gnome-terminal + ENTER), just copy and paste the commands I give here should work flawlessly. Sometimes I post links with more info, if a command doesn't work you might want to follow that link and see if it contains help on your issue. Please mention your problem and solution and I'll update the Howto accordingly.

First we need to install git since that is needed to fetch the wine sources:
Code:
sudo aptitude install git
Next step is to download the latest wine code to a directory and change to that. This may take a while.
Code:
git clone git://source.winehq.org/git/wine.git ~/wine-git && cd ~/wine-git
More info: http://wiki.winehq.org/GitWine?actio...daafaecc72ad18


Fix the black screen loop issue after patch #16:
Code:
wget -q -O - http://bugs2.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=29498 | patch -p1
You have to apply the patch required for SC2 patch #16 from Florian. This is discussed in here: Bug 23556 - Starcraft 2 beta displays a black screen right after starting
More info: http://wiki.winehq.org/Patching

We're now almost ready to start compiling, but first we need all build dependencies and some build tools:
Code:
sudo aptitude install build-essential
Code:
sudo apt-get build-dep wine
We can now start the build process. Change the jobs argument to the amount of CPU cores you have +1 (-j3 for 2 cores):
Code:
./configure && make depend && make -j3
This will take some time.
Don't forget to remove wine from package management before installing:
Code:
sudo aptitude remove wine
And finally install it:
Code:
sudo make install

For more information on building wine check the Wine User Guide
Now, restart wineserver so you can log into Battle.Net.
Code:
wineserver -k
Now, you can either install it (if you don't have trouble reading the terms of agreement) or, if you have an installation of it on another computer or OS, copy the files.
However, there's still some stuff to do before the game runs smoothly:

Fixing forever loading times
Starting a game takes forever with certain settings in wine. To fix this you have to change the emulator mode to either Vista or Windows 7:
Code:
winecfg
Under the Applications tab change the Windows Version to either Vista or Windows 7.

Fixing sound
Starcraft II uses the mmdevapi which is only partly implemented in Wine, disabling that library will enable the fallback audio system that works perfectly (I'm unsure if this is a wine fallback or a sc2 one, regardless I haven't noticed any problems with it)
Code:
winecfg
Press Libraries tab, add a new override for mmdevapi and edit it to Disabled.

If you have stuttering (and are using pulseaudio), in winecfg, set audio driver to OSS, and Hardware Acceleration to 'Emulation'.

 
Warning
Changing startup preferences in the Galaxy Editor to open the data module by default will prevent you from opening the editor, as this module causes a fatal error. To correct, open regedit and change

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Blizzard Entertainment\StarCraft II Editor Beta\Preferences\StartupModules

set to 0.

Success with NVIDIA drivers
by qbxk on Friday July 30th 2010, 7:39
the lastest NVIDIA drivers seemed to be really geared for linux systems if you check out the patch notes, www.nvidia.com/object/linux-display-amd64-256.35-driver.html

i don't think the windows version of the driver is over 250, so good on nvidia for some pure linux love

I use 2 screens and they're not the same size, and I only want the game on one, this is normally a challenge, and it was here too. But reading deeper in those patch notes I noticed the mention of new VDPAU support, hmm, so from the info about that it references, us.download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86_64/256.35/README/vdpausupport.html they mention the environment variable VDPAU_NVIDIA_SYNC_DISPLAY_DEVICE which solves the problem beautifully

and use your Starcraft 2 options to use "windowed (fullscreen)" (use winecfg and set emulate desktop to get to the options window if your screen is already messed up, i had trouble getting into options when it used the combined resolution of my screens to display)

panning is a little iffy on the border to my other screen, but the other 3 edges work great which they didn't with emulate desktop on, and there was no other way to get coherent resolution without that for me

ATI Problems solved
by capilevastu on Thursday July 29th 2010, 0:31
everybody with ati graphics and the included problems, like scrambled 2d images, crash after match ends and no custom games playable can fix this with the new 10.7 catalyst drivers from ati, which is not in the ubuntu-repository yet.

ok, its not perfect. one little issue is remaining, some of the texts are broken (you see only some letters, some are replaced by blank spaces (mostly) and some by As and Es) which was not in 10.6 before but this does not appear in every text (mostly in popups) and im optimistic to fix this some day.

To install the Catalyst 10.7 driver was a little tricky and gave me some hard hours. im not an expert so you might disagree with my description, but here is how i installed it:
You need the uninstall fglrx (or what else driver you may have) completely. the most tuts refer to and fglrx-uninstall.sh somewhere in /etc/ati or /usr/share/ati but it was missing in my case, i couldnt find it and so i think i was not able to install in a clean environment.
therefore i uninstalled it manually "sudo apt-get purge fglrx*", made a backup of my /etc/X11/xorg.conf and than i launched the "ati-driver-installer-10-7-x86.x86_64.run" and rebooted.
my big problem was then, it was somehow broken, the desktop ran smoothly but there was no 3d acceleration and i was not able to figure out why BUT it installed a /usr/share/ati/fglrx-uninstall.sh :)
so i uninstalled it again with the script, rebooted, installed it again and played my first singleplayer campaign :)

Problems with installing the retail version
by capilevastu on Tuesday July 27th 2010, 1:57
ITS OUT NOW ... and i cant play it

here is what happens:
i mount the dvd with `mount -o remount,unhide /dev/scd0` so that the hidden files are readable.
but when i start the installer.exe with wine, all that comes out is:

fixme:ntdll:NtPowerInformation semi-stub: SystemPowerCapabilities
fixme:wininet:InternetSetOptionW Option INTERNET_OPTION_CONNECT_TIMEOUT (60000): STUB
fixme:wininet:InternetSetOptionW INTERNET_OPTION_SEND/RECEIVE_TIMEOUT 60000
fixme:wininet:InternetSetOptionW Option INTERNET_OPTION_CONNECT_TIMEOUT (60000): STUB
fixme:wininet:InternetSetOptionW INTERNET_OPTION_SEND/RECEIVE_TIMEOUT 60000

and after that, its gone

anyone else having this problem or an idea what could cause or fix this?

by capilevastu on Wednesday July 14th 2010, 6:46
Nope, this is not true.
I have an ATI Mobility HD 3650 with fglrx and also this scrambled 2D Images (nearly every 2D Image is scrambled) but the game -- not with full functionality -- runs.
The only thing, that works for me is ladder games, where i get a random opponent all sorts of custom games dont work also i have to kill the game after every match because it hangs on exiting the match buuuuut i can play it.

maybe you dont have all the needed windows components installed through winetricks

game still not working
by Israel Ridgley on Tuesday July 13th 2010, 0:57
Ok so I installed the wine patch and did everything the how to said but now instead of a black screen and a cursor I get a screen with no cursor, a messed up initializing maps message, and a weird barrage of colors then crashes shortly after. I'm running Ubuntu 10.04 64-bit, wine 1.2-rc5, and I have a ATI Radeon HD 5770 with the FGLRX driver. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I got it working.
I used the following 2 patches:
phyrex1an.net/sc2-login.diff
bugs2.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=29498 (from bug bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=23556)

Since i use a kernel .34 i had also to patch it with a slightly modified version of the one found here:
.33: bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=23323
.34: kerneltrap.org/mailarchive/git-commits-head/2010/7/5/42048

patch 14

Same issue, arch linux 64 bits.

I make it up to the game itself where it crashes with ubuntu 32 bits though. One time I actually played a 10 minute game.

Really strange to see it crash at a different point every time. It usually crashes when starting up, but sometimes after 10 seconds, and with ubuntu in game..

Same problem with 1.1.44 on Gentoo AMD64. Played fine till this patch.

I have the same problem also with the GameEditor. The blizz Error reporter states this:

occurred at 0023:0560DD52. The memory at '0x00000000' could not be written.

The "strange" part is the random part where the error occur but most of the time is even before the first loading screen.

Patch 14
by Charlie Hansen on Wednesday June 2nd 2010, 11:37
I am currently playing the SC2 Beta on two different computers with slackware 13.1 on them, using the patched wine1.2-rc2 with mmdevapi disabled and oss /w emulation. It has been completely playable until patch 14. Now on both computers whenever I try to load the game it either won't even make it to the start of the loading screen, or it will make it all the way to the beginning of a game, but it WILL crash before I can actually start playing no matter what.

The terminal has a long list of fixme's every time I run it, and it's almost never the same exact output twice. The end of it always has this though:

"Persistant" graphical corruption
by Christian on Wednesday June 2nd 2010, 8:37
Using FGLRX 10.5 with ATi Radeon Mobility HD4650 and Ubuntu x64 Lucid and many of the icons or images in Starcraft 2 are corrupted. The graphics themselves work fine but portraits, the logon logo (Starcraft II before the game actually starts) and all the icons on the GUI are all corrupted.

If multiple instances of the same image is shown, they are all corrupted the same way. (Ie. they look exactly identical regardless of scaling) This leads me to believe that this is an error that occurs upon loading the textures.

Anyone knows what this might be?

I've been trying to test this program by creating a 1v1 vs. AI. Count goes down from 10, then stops at 0, then waits a minute or two before everything simply vanishes. I tried changing it to Windows 7 mode as recommended above, and this doesn't help. Here is my output after clicking the start game button.

I tried reinstalling, but I still have the same problem. Any ideas how to fix it?

I had a similar issue at one point. I was able to compile Wine just fine without the make_requests. I believe that make_requests just enables some debug symbols, so I don't see why it would be required (other than to help troubleshoot). Try running just:

./configure && make depend && make

Can't watch any replays from previous versions.
by Zach Ashton on Thursday May 13th 2010, 22:19
I got into the beta on patch 11 and played some games just fine.

I'm using patch 12 now (Battle.net+key). When trying to watch any game replay made from a previous game client version (which asks to restart then apparently tries to run the appropriate EXE in Versions/ folder), the client either crashes to Blizzard's crash reporter, or simply disappears along with wineserver and the exe from linux process list.

I downloaded some random replays to test and indeed only if the client needs to restart into a previous version to play the replay will the client crash.

Any fix or reproduction of the problem?

Can't Launch SCII
by Stephen on Thursday May 13th 2010, 17:29
Archlinux 64 bit, with wine 1.4.44 and a GTX 260 video card.

I was able to install and patch without a problem, but I cannot launch this game with or without the sound disabled in XP vista or 7 modes.

Here is the ErrorReporter output pastie.org/957242

This shows up after running it in a terminal and having the code hang after this:

fixme:win:EnumDisplayDevicesW ((null),0,0x3eae91c,0x00000000), stub!

The rest of the output is on my forum post: forum.winehq.org/viewtopic.php?t=8416
(I realized that this was probably a better place to put it just now)

Another part of the terminal output (before the hang) is this
err:module:load_builtin_dll failed to load .so lib for builtin L"winemp3.acm": libmpg123.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

No idea if that is important, but it's worth a shot I suppose! Thanks in advance guys

SC2 freezing mid game
by shaun rutherford on Thursday May 13th 2010, 14:57
Is anyone having issues with SC2 freezing and locking up your computer mid game? I can't find any reason for it other then if I switch to another console (which takes forever) it says I'm out of memory and the system is killing process's like pulse audio and gnome etc.

It's not overheating, I tried backing up to 1.43 of wine, today I'm re-installing Ubuntu 10.04 64 with no updates to see if it's a Ubuntu glitch (wouldn't shock me).

Any thoughts would be appreciated or if anyone else has similar symptoms.

Is the patch to run SCII still required?
by Dimitar on Monday May 10th 2010, 6:26
Hi all,

I installed Starcraft II beta on Wine 1.1.43 and got to the login screen. When I enter my login data the game just quits. I read around the forums and saw that the wine patch mentioned in the howto is supposed to fix that.

However I don't really want to patch my wine and would rather stick to the one provided directly from the repository. From what I found it seems that this patch has been around for quite some time. I was wondering why is it not integrated into wine yet? I saw somewhere that one of the devs rejected it. Any ideas why?

If the patch is no longer needed, any clues what I'm doing wrong? I already disabled the mmdevapi.

I'm getting absolutely no sound, and I have disabled mmdevapi, still no sound.

I'm using a fresh install of Ubuntu 10.04 with wine 1.1.43.

The only variable I could think of is that I use a PCI 7.1 Soundblaster audigy value sound card instead of onboard sound, but I plugged in headphones in my onboard sound, and get nothing from that either.

Patch 11 Fails
by Jon Loubert on Friday May 7th 2010, 20:21
I did the installation fine, until it tried to apply patch 11. When the installer gets about 1/3 of the way through, an error box pops up with no message (only an OK button). The patching process appears to continue whether the OK button in the error box is clicked or not...but after the progress bar completes, it just starts trying to apply patch 11 all over again. This seems to go on indefinitely.


I'm using Ubuntu 10.04, and followed the tutorial above to build wine. I'm not really sure where to even start, since the error box is completely blank. :/ Any suggestions?

Particle effects slows down the game a lot
by Lauri Niskanen on Friday May 7th 2010, 12:58
For some reason the particle effects are slowing down the game a lot. If I have medium effects or higher my fps drop below 30. With low quality particles I am able to have quite high fps (60) which is good for normal playing. However, there are some custom maps that have lots of particles in them. Those are unplayable with wine.

For example see this: www.youtube.com/watch?v=ah3XmjlhgJw

Map Editor

Ubuntu 9.04 + the patched version of wine described above:
Using a Vaio intel centrino duo with on board nvidia.

The game works great. I can log in and play on lowest settings without noticeable slowdown, havn't tried it with higher graphical settings yet.

The only problems are with the map editor:

Opening up into the terrain editor causes a program freeze.

Opening up the Object editor causes the program to terminate.

All of the other modules: Import, Triggers, Overview screen, etc. work perfectly.

Crashes at game Creation/Join

Hi.

I'm running a ATi HD4870 X2 and i know the ATi has some flaws in their driver or the game has some, either way, i know it's buggy but..

Everything is working, sound, login, menus etc but when i try to join a game or even create one it crashes exactly at the end of the countdown and out comes this error:

Anyone able to play with a Radeon?
by Geoff Pursell on Sunday May 2nd 2010, 12:37
Trying to play on my Radeon 3820. With the open-source radeon drivers (latest as of Lucid Lynx release), I get a featureless white screen, but a blinking cursor, so I'm apparently getting to the login page. Can't do anything, though.

With the closed fglrx drivers, I get unacceptable graphic flicker and glitching that renders the main UI unusable. It's this bug, I think: bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=21610

Is there anyone out there that has this game working on their Radeon?

How does the MAC client help?
by Dimitar on Saturday May 1st 2010, 15:41
Hi everyone,

I am big Starcraft fan and would love it if I can play in Linux. Currently I am using Windows 7 only for the purpose of playing SC II, but I don't like switching to Windows :P

I haven't yet tried to run it in wine but my laptop runs Starcraft on the absolute minimum settings in Windows so I don't have much hope of running it smooth in Ubuntu.

I see that some of the comments here mention that the MAC client will help with running SC smoothly. Am I missing something? Can wine also run applications meant for Macs or is there any other easy way to run the MAC client in Linux?

Is it possible in wine to change the OS version via the command line, rather than winecfg.

When playing SC2 the advice is to use Vista or Windows 7. However, unless I have my wine set to XP I do not get sound in World of Warcraft.

Is there a quick way to change the OS that I can use in a shortcut. Something like "wine -os XP Wow.exe"? (yes, I know that isn't a real command).

Crash on startup

Sadly, I'm back.
I've downloaded and installed the patches, and when I clicked 'play' I went to the loadscreen for the game. During the load, it stopped, and then the game closed.

Now, when I open StarCraft 2 in Wine, I see a tab on the bottom that says 'Starting StarCraft 2', which then closes after a few seconds without the program opening.

Not really sure where to go from here.
As I said, very new to Ubuntu, so don't put any simple mistakes past me.

Ubuntu 9.10 binary package for Wine with SC2 Login Patch

I have some good news for you all.

THE GALAXY EDITOR RUNS!

The first message you get yells at you with the license info and all. It causes the screen to flash black. A lot. Closing it (with the OKAY button) will stop the flashing. I'm proud to say that there is no black overlay of doom like with Warcraft III. For now I recommend terraining only as other modules I've tried to open cause fatal errors.

The Editor
by Alex West on Thursday April 22nd 2010, 15:44
Apparently Patch 9 is finally out, and with it comes a WHOLE BUNCH of new features, new maps, and the one everybody's been waiting for, THE GALAXY EDITOR! I'm currently still downloading the patch, but when it finishes just know that I'll test all the functionality.

Unfortunately for Linux users, it appears that the launcher and downloader do not like us as it detects we're behind a firewall, even if we aren't. Therefore my download is extremely slow.

Unlike what I said before, this patch does NOT bring 3v3, 4v4, or OpenGL. OpenGL and the Mac Client are due to be released by this Monday at the latest. As for 3v3 and 4v4, we don't know yet, but we've gotten the term "Soon" (in blizzard tongue) so expect it by the next three months.

OpenGL Support
by Alex West on Monday April 19th 2010, 16:07
Okay, the deal is that supposedly, this Thursday (April 22nd) a full server reset will be done, erasing all characters. On top of that, apparently a major content patch will be released, which will include the following. This is not official but is suspected to fit their deadline, and a server reset at the same time makes sense.

- 3v3
- 4v4
- The Galaxy Editor, which will bring much WINE testing
- The Mac client, so no more trouble for all you Mac users.

Linux users, remember that with the Mac client comes OpenGL, and therefore you won't have much lag if your card normally shouldn't have lag in a game like this. I for one use a 9400GT. When I had Windows installed, StarCraft II could run Medium/High/Ultra with almost no lag whatsoever. Then, when I switched to Ubuntu fully (my Windows partition completely failed and I haven't been able to find a working install disc) I resorted to WINE. I finally got SC2 working, especially using Shaun's install method, although I encounter extreme lag. I've turned down everything to low/off, except for portraits which I keep on 3D, and keep it at the minimum resolution available, and I still experience lag. Therefore I believe this extreme amount of lag to be caused by Direct3D and the lack of OpenGL. Once the Mac client comes out, us Linux users should have no trouble with lag whatsoever, and it should be more of a problem getting the game running than making it run smoothly.

Quick questions
by NiceBloke on Saturday April 17th 2010, 4:00
Can you have the git version of wine as detailed above installed as well as the released version that comes from the winehq repository or do I have to remove it?

Also, if the patch fixes the problem - how long until that is put into the release version of wine?

(I want to play SC2, but don't want to jeopardise my other wine installed apps)

Problems with libmpg123
by Marcel Meißner on Friday April 16th 2010, 5:45
Hello, I'm on a debian lenny amd64 and I've compiled the most recent git snapshot of wine with the above patch.
Since on debian lenny there's no recent 32bit version of libmpg123 i've built my own and made sure it works, I used the most recent version I could get from sourceforge.net/projects/mpg123/files/

Now my problem is that SC2.exe will freeze on startup, since SC2.exe is loaded by a launcher I've no clue how to produce some usefull debug output for it.

When I compile wine without libmpg123 SC2 will work just fine, but ofcourse without any sound.

Did anyone else have this problem or does anyone have an idea on how to solve this or even just how to get more debugging information?

No textures and background in the menu & after login
by Tankjer on Monday April 12th 2010, 23:27
Hello, big thanks to Shaun, because I could get SC2 to work at last. But now I have another problem, when I turn the game on I get lots of that in the console:
fixme:d3d:getFormatDescEntry Can't find format unrecognized(909200449) in the format lookup table no texture

Also, after loading I get no textures in menu:
tinypic.com/view.php?pic=5n5e0z&s=5
my graphics settings are set all on low:
tinypic.com/view.php?pic=2lw6brt&s=5

After logging in I still get no textures and no background. I tried to run Wine with and without GLSL. I have no ideas what else I could post here, just ask me so I will know.

Performance issues after game

How I made the game install/run smoothly
by shaun rutherford on Thursday April 1st 2010, 17:53
I've spent a decent chunk of time reading all the links and thought it would be nice to create a step by step guide of how to get SC2 beta to run on Linux in a playable fashion. *note - You have to compile wine from source for now to play SC2, all commands with the exception of the install of software should NOT be ran as root, use a regular user account.

1. Download the wine source files from sourceforge.net, version 1.40 and 1.41 both worked for me. ( sourceforge.net/projects/wine/files/Source/)

2. Make sure you have all the files necessary to compile source, your kernel headers, bison, patch etc. If the system kicks you an error download that file before continuing or the install/play wont work.

3. unzip the source files in a directory of your choosing, I recommend creating a wine folder in your home drive for simplicity sake. (tar -xvf )

4. Wine must first be patched using the patch from bug 21809 by Henri Verbeet. ( bugs2.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=26628) the link points you to the patch. Copy the text and put it into a text file using your favorite text editor and save it (the name of the file doesn't matter).

5. Put the patch from step 4 into your unziped wine directory (Not the directory you created called wine, one sub-directory further with all your files in it). run "patch -p1 < the name of your patch file" (without quotes). This will update the source files for wine.

6. run "./tools/make_request" from the same directory (still without quotes). I'm not entirely sure what this does but without it wine will not compile correctly.

7. run "./configure" (without quotes) this will check the system to make sure you have all the files necessary to compile wine. If your running a debian based system you can run "sudo apt-get build-deb wine" (without quotes) to install MOST of the files necessary.

In my Ubuntu desktop and Arch Linux laptop the libmpg123 file was not a recent enough version to compile with wine (you get an error after ./configure that says missing or not current enough). If you have this problem you have to download and install the latest version of libmpg123-dev from the web. Without this file SC2 will not play sound. For Ubuntu users here is the link to Lucid's libmpg123-dev file ( packages.ubuntu.com/lucid/libmpg123-dev) for everyone else you must have 1.5 or higher, anything less will not work.

8. run "make -jX" (without quotes) where X is the number of cores your processor has. This compiles the software to be installed in Linux using all processing power available from your computer.

9. Once step 8 is completed assuming you have no errors run as root "make install" (without quotes). This will install wine to your /usr/local/bin directory (or /usr/bin directory depending on your distribution)

10. Run /usr/local/bin/winecfg to create your wine directory in your home drive and configure a few settings. Firstly, change the Windows version under the applications tab to Windows 7. Secondly under the libraries tab click the drop down box and look for mmdevapi and click add. then edit mmdevapi and change to disable (I'm not sure if this next part is necessary but it's how my install works with sound). Thirdly click the Audio tab and de-check ALSA Driver and click OSS Driver instead. Apply the settings and click okay.

11. At this point you should be able to install SC2 using wine and patch SC2. A small pop up box will come up during patching, it doesn't appear to hurt anything, just click okay.

12. In order for SC2 to run smoothly you must add a registry key in wine to tell SC2 how much video memory your system has (otherwise the game runs, but it does so very poorly). run "/usr/local/bin/regedit" (without quotes) to open the wine registry. under hkey_current_user > software > Wine right click the wine folder and choose new key. Name this new key Direct3D. Right click Direct3D and choose new string value. Name the string value VideoMemorySize. Double click VideoMemorySize to open a dialog box and enter the amount of memory in mega bytes your video card has (no need to put MB at the end of the number, a 512 will do if you have a 512MB card).

That's it, your done. You should now be able to launch SC2 and play without issue. I've played a couple of games on my laptop however I'm going to stress test the system tonight by creating a fleet of carriers and see how the system holds up under strain. Will post my results afterwards.

If I missed anything please let me know so I can edit. Hope this is helpful to someone as it took me 3-4 days worth of reading and testing to figure all this out.

Minimum hardware requirement to play SC2 under wine?
by Eric on Wednesday March 31st 2010, 16:53
Hi,

I was able to install sc2 beta under wine by following all your advises below. Actually, it is not very playable...too jerky.
I think the problem is due with my video card 6150SE nForce 430?
My cpu is an Athlonll X2 240 2.8 GHz and I have 3 GB.
So if I buy a new card (I'm thinking a Geforce GT 220), it should be ok?

Thanks.

How I got battle.net to work and the game to run smoothly
by David Deutsch on Tuesday March 30th 2010, 12:08
Download wine version 1.1.40 from here:

sourceforge.net/projects/wine/files/Source/wine-1.1.40.tar.bz2/download

unzip it into a directory and download this:

bugs2.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=26628

as, say, bnetfix.diff - also into the same directory.

Open up a terminal and access the directory and carry out this command:

sudo patch -p1 < bnetfix.diff

next up, you need to build it like so:

sudo ./configure && make depend && make

And finally, you need to

sudo make install

Next up, you need to make sure that you have "Windows 7" mode enabled and to fix the sound, DISABLE (not just override) the mmdevapi dll.

Finally, to make it run a little more smoothly, take the Variables.txt from Lauri Niskanen (an earlier comment below) and put it into

.wine/drive_c/users/[your username]/My Documents/StarCraft II Beta

cheers!

Menu Graphics Glitch
by Michael Griffith on Monday March 22nd 2010, 15:33
I have everything working with a patched version of 1.1.41, I have mmdevapi.dll disabled as well. I can open the game and log in but the menus act very crazy, they chop in and out and spazz all across the screen. Although if I bring up the esc menu I have no problems viewing that. If I shake the window around on the screen the menus clear up, but only while the screen is in motion. I managed to open up a game by shaking the window and remembering where the buttons were and the graphics are fine. Anyone know what I could do?

Beta crashes with ACCESS_VIOLATION message
by Norbert on Sunday March 21st 2010, 5:59
In case someone has this issue, here's the workaround:

Issue:
- starcraft beta installs correctly
- game updates correctly
- game loads
-- you can see loading screen
-- as soon as loading finishes, game crashes with ACCESS_VIOLATION exception and opens Blizzard Error Reporter

There's a lot of messages like these while running in console:

fixme:d3d_texture:texture_init Failed to create surface 0x8616658, hr 0x8876017c
err:d3d:resource_init Out of adapter memory
err:d3d9:device_parent_CreateSurface (0x1764d4) CreateSurface failed, returning 0x8876017c


Potential problem:
Wine wrongly detects amount of video card memory

Tested system:
Ubuntu 9.10 "Karmic" 64bit
Wine 1.1.39, 1.1.40, 1.1.41
Nvidia Quadro NVS 140M 512MB

Workaround:
Override detection of memory by setting in registry this key:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER/Software/Wine/Direct3D/VideoMemorySize

to memory amount (eg. 512)

by Michael Griffith on Monday March 15th 2010, 19:12
I was able to install SCII Beta using the latest Wine version but now I cannot start the game because it keeps trying to download the latest patch, it finishes, then automatically restarts the patch download. After about 30 seconds I get this blank alert box and the following wine output:
fixme:shdocvw:WebBrowser_Stop (0x2007d0)
But the patch download continues fine, this only comes up once every time I try to open SCII, if I let the patch loop this error doesn't come back but the patch downloads and installs and then restarts. Any help would be very appreciated!

Fix for crash on exit
by ben on Thursday March 11th 2010, 15:21
It seems there's a problem with the vista and win7 modes on winecfg. I set "sh winetricks winxp" and no longer received the ACCESS_VIOLATION messages on exit. I did get an error message ingame about paged pool memory being full, though it didn't seem to impact framerates too badly.

Also, if the sound in SC2 fails to start, i've been able to get it back ingame by toggling the audio output device from Default to dmix0 and back (from within the Options-audio menu).

May be unrelated, but if I don't do WINEDEBUG=-all I get millions of these:

OpenGL or Direct3D translation?
by Ema on Sunday March 7th 2010, 4:20
Hey guys,

Unluckily I could not be part of the beta :-P
Did you all run SC2 in D3D mode or in OpenGL?
I'm asking because I used WoW for 4 years with wine and actually in OpenGL mode it was a lot faster (specify -opengl from command line).
Btw, apart being faster usually OpenGL mode is more similar to what we expect on Mac.

Shader setting issue
by lubosz on Sunday March 7th 2010, 2:33
I found the critical settings in this issue:
i.imgur.com/XXsiC.jpg

depthDisp=0

to go from ultra to high

soft=0

to go from hight to medium

but keeping the benefits of the other settings.

This is my full Variables.txt, without black flickering:
pastebin.com/raw.php?i=ABG6ngcD

The config file is based on Ultra settings + Exterme Shaders,
with the buggy settings turned off.

Be sure that the client does not overwrite the Variables.txt. This does happen at the login screen. SC2Launcher.exe does not overwrite the Variables.txt.

This is my result:

Rating: Silver vs Bronze
by Lauri Niskanen on Thursday March 4th 2010, 5:03
I don't think Wine has silver rating for this game yet. It should be bronze.

Silver rating requires that the game "works excellently for 'normal' use". If the battle.net doesn't work you can't play the game. So the normal use doesn't work. Watching replays is not a major feature by any means. I'd say that if the battle.net gaming did work excellently, but the replay feature wouldn't work at all it might get the silver rating.

Login crash
by Lauri Niskanen on Friday February 19th 2010, 14:29
The game crashes when I try to log in. It is some kind of a protection. I think it tries to find out whether I am using a debugger and it just closes the game when the check fails.

fixme:debugstr:CheckRemoteDebuggerPresent (0x350)->(0x42de620): Stub!

OpenGL

Does anybody know if you can switch to OpenGL renderer? It is possible with some other Blizzard games like WC3.

You can watch replays

I was able to watch replays by following this hack: www.reddit.com/r/gaming/comments/b3xxq/starcraft_2_hacked_in_a_day_how_to_play_replays/

Client runs
by lubosz on Thursday February 18th 2010, 9:27
I managed to run the client with the application files extracted with an installation in my vista vm.
Shaders look great, all modes seem to work with minor bugs.
I get no sound at all.

Login does not work at all (the application just quits, no error messages). I suppose thats some battle.net security thing.
