Additional Comments

To get the game running see the How To below. Once you did it, the game runs pretty fine. Videos do not work. In that case you might try running the game using "wine drakensang.exe -novideo" I play on medium settings quite fluently on AMD Athlon64 X2 4200+ 2 GB Ram Nvidia GeForce 8600GTS with 180.25 drivers.

HowTo / Notes

HOWTO get Drakensang running
  • Get the latest Wine development release.
  • Install Drakensang.
  • Install the Drakensang patch to version 1.01.
  • Install DirectX 9.0 June or newer (if you have problems use winetricks).
  • Install and register the required DLLs for the XACT audio engine (see forum post (German) and comments here in the AppDB). Alternatively you can use this script to add and register the dlls.
  • Try to start the game. If you have problems, read the next two hints.
  • If you have problems with the videos: Try to start Drakensang with the option "-novideo".
  • If you get the error message

    have a look at bug report 14758. Get the hack posted there, get the newest Git version of Wine, apply the hack and compile Wine yourself.
