Additional Comments

I had this working before the 0.9.38 update, after the update it failed. I did a complete wipe of my Wine install and started fresh with a new 0.9.38 install and made two registry modifications: 
DirectDrawRenderer set to opengl
VideoMemorySize set to my card's actual memory size (256)

The game installed without issue and launches when run from the game CDs autorun.exe (launching from the local exe produced menus with missing text). "Enable Hardware Mouse" had to be disabled in the configuration menu to get cursor to function correctly. There are still occasionally pointer trails, but there is a usable mouse cursor. 

Attempting to use the game's autoupdate feature first failed to even launch, but was fixed with a DLL override of mfc42.dll. Once the autoupdater launched, it failed to connect to the update server, but that is likely a configuration issue on my end.

T4's Character Screen
by Bradyn on Tuesday June 15th 2010, 3:29
So, the game crashes when you go to see T4's character screen, making it impossible for him to level up.

White Polygons
by Bradyn on Thursday June 10th 2010, 18:50
Ok, so under wine, everything is basically white or gray, the polygons have no textures. I run this fine on windows7/xp so I don't know what the problem is. I have an intel GMA 3150, which is supported (quite well) by Ubuntu. Any resolution for this?

InstallShield cannot be loaded
by Stephen on Wednesday January 7th 2009, 7:26
I get an error when I try to install. It says the installshield (ikernel.exe) could not be loaded. I looked in the disc itself and there isn't an ikernel.exe but an ikernel.ex_.

If anyone out there knows how to get this to install, please let me know!!!

Doesn't quite work
by Chris on Sunday August 3rd 2008, 18:18
On Ubuntu 8.04 with Wine 1.0.0, the installation works perfectly, but when I actually run the game (starting on 800x600 with lowest detail, just for testing, but higher details have this same problem), I get this:

Ew.

Game does not start

Hi,

after installing the game, I insert CD 1, and no matter how I try to start it (swkotor.exe, launcher.exe or autostart.exe), it accesses the cd, and then quits. Output shows:

Problems with mouse can be fixed.
by Onrue on Tuesday June 6th 2006, 18:36
Read more about bug bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1410>#1410, especially comment bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1410#c21>#21. I applied the patch, compiled, put the option to the register, and all works fine (mouse isn't recentered!), except that mouse cursor is shown on the screen only while mouse button 1 is pressed. Some commenters about bug #1410 said that mouse have shown up in some old CVS versions of wine. I think all that problems could be fixed.
