Known bugs
Bug # Description Status Resolution Other apps affected
4066 Online Play Doesn't Work (DirectPlay) NEW View
4418 black screen when starting Warlords Battlecry NEW View
5534 DirectPlay games hang when exiting multiplayer CLOSED FIXED View

 
HOWTO
Be sure to use Wine version 0.9.16 if you are using the CD (you can join a multiplayer game without the CD).

When start the game, the screen is black. Switch to another program (Alt + Tab) and then back to the game, and it should appear.

Elements such as taskbars designed to cover other applications are not hidden when Warlrods Battlecry is run in full-screen. This can be fixed by not allowing the window manager to control Wine applications (can be changed in winecfg), or by changing the taskbar's options so that windows are allowed to cover it.

Multiplayer
To get multiplayer working, place the DLLs in this archive in Wine's windows/system32 directory. Then, start winecfg and add dll overrides (native, builtin) for the following DLLs: dplayx, dpnet, dpnhpast and dpwsockx.
NOTE: the game freezes when exiting a multiplayer game.

Still not working quite right
by Evil Mr Henry on Thursday April 20th 2006, 5:04
Using the April 8th, 2006 patch, Battlecry still isn't working. While most of it works, it crashes when choosing to build items in the keep. (Also, the buttons are blank. Odd, as the screenshots show the buttons.)
Debian, ATI official drivers, V 8.24.8. Battlecry 1.0 and 1.0.3.
