Additional Comments

Graphic problems: There are different clipping errors throughout the game. Tested against wine1.2.2 where this errors don't occur at all. ------------------------------------------------ Installation: Its impossible to swap the install cd to complete the installation. I used a workaround as follows: - Copied the content of the second disk into a new folder on my HDD. - Set up this folder as drive e: in "winecfg" - During the install where a prompt asks for the drive letter with the second disk, put in "e:" - after that the installation resumes and should complete without problems ------------------------------------------------ Closing comment: This game is absolutely playable, only with minor graphic problems. With wine1.2.2 this game would get platinum. With the tested 1.3.23 only gold. ------------------------------------------------ Game settings: - 1600x1200 - all settings on high Wine settings: - window mode 1600x1200 Specs: - Wine 1.3.23 - Ubuntu 10.04.1 LTS - Linux-Kernel 2.6.32-31-generic-pae - Intel Core 2 Duo E8500 3,16GHz - 4GB RAM Mushkin XP2-8500 1066MHz - ATI HD4870 512MB (using official "ATI Radeon HD 4800 Series" driver Release 11-5) - Window manager: compiz
