Description

Version 2004.


 

Old test results
The test results you have selected are very old and may not represent the current state of Wine.
Selected Test Results (selected in 'Test Results' table below)

What works

Flying with saved flights or Flight School with Rod. I've managed to fly an ATC Paris approach and also did some lessons with Rod. 

I've set my graphics to low however.


What does not
Mostly changing aircrafts or location. Also the menu is not clickable. However I managed to fly a 737 ( screenshot )


What was not tested
Multiplayer and install was not tested. I simply mounted my Win partition. When starting FS9 I needed to click on agree License.


Additional Comments

Wow thanks. Hopefully aircraft and scenery selecting will be working in 1.2 for another great app.

See 4CD install note below!

.net not required

My FS200x installations under Windows did not require .net, so it should not be a requirement for Linux either.

Looks like it requires directx 9
by Gametha on Sunday July 30th 2006, 14:08
from microsoft www.microsoft.com/games/flightsimulator/productinfo.asp
So.. looks like FS2004 needs directx 9. Can somebody with a native windows instalation try do run with directx 8 installed to see what happens?

Some new infos
by Oliver C. on Sunday October 16th 2005, 10:47
Flight Simulator 2004 requires DCOM98, Internet Explorer and
the Microsoft DotNet Framework to be installed.

The latter one does not run/install in Wine, so further testing of FS2004 is not possible.

Also trying to use a Windows Version of Mono didn't work,
because the Mono installer failed to install Mono under Wine.
