1.0 | First official game 2005 / 2006 | Bronze | 1.3.9 | 9 | 0 |
1.0.1 | Retail 1.0 German version (with copy-protection) + 1.0.1 patch (https://www.4players.de/4playe...) which removes copy-protection. (This patch is legal. It's from the game developer to add support for Windows Vista. Probably copy-protection broke in Vista.) | Gold | 4.21 | 1 | 0 |
Demo | Demo of Ankh 1 | Garbage | 1.5.29 | 3 | 0 |
Special Edition, German | This is the Special Edition retail release, but not the Linux Special Edition. There is no copy protection, which is very nice to users. | Silver | 1.1.34 | 1 | 0 |
Use wine-0.9.31 .. 0.9.43 to play this game with the default Direct3D9 renderer because of several regressions. These old versions should work except the item icons in the inventory may not be drawn correctly (bug #21354).
The maintainer would appreciate if you would find out whether one of these old versions works better than the others.
You can use much more recent versions of Wine (such as 1.1.34/36) if you change bin/release/plugins.cfg to use the GL renderer instead. The speech output issue (bug #21209) may still affect your machine.
