Gentlemen, start your engines!
Step 1
Using Winetricks install the following DLL files:
Directx 9.0c [ d3dx9_42 ]
winetricks d3dx9_42
sh winetricks d3dx9_42
Demo users fix Internet Explorer[ie7 ]
winetricks ie7
Step 2
Configure Wine and set d3dx9_42 as (builtin) in Libraries.
Make sure to check if Shader Support is active in Graphics.
Step 3
wine regedit
HKEY_CURRECT_USER >> Software >> Wine >> Direct3D
Create a new KEY (folder) to create Direct3D if needed.
Add new string values below:
| Name | Data |
| DirectDrawRenderer | opengl |
| OffscreenRenderingMode | fbo |
| PixelShaderMode | enabled |
| VideoMemorySize | VIDEO CARD MEMORY HERE
|
Step 4
Install game from CD or download.
Do agree to install any DirectX options.
Do not agree to "run now" and "add shortcut"by unchecking the boxes.
Restart PC and play.
Safe driving!
rFactor (demo) will request support from a browser.
Error: "The requested URL /offline/00c93d54/open.html was not found on this server."
Add ie7 in Winetricks.
sh winetricks ie7
This will add Internet Explorer to wine so that the rFactor install will continue.
