Additional Comments

This game only "works" with following native DLLs: (d3dcompiler_43) d3dx9 d3dx9_36 d3dx9_37 By "works" I mean that you can start a new game and play some levels until there are flickers everywhere. This happens when you come close to "The Hive" mission, which doesn't crash with native DLLs but has flickers all over the rendered scene. See ticket #27994 for details.

DNF is perfect on latest staging.
by Justin on Thursday April 19th 2018, 2:33

I am using Wine 3.6 Staging and DNF steam version is running without a hitch. I did have problems with an older version of Wine showing the grey over the screen.

No platinum when winetracks has been used

I cannot confirm (I have the retail version purchased over Steam) that this game is platinum-level as it crashes on actual game start (starting new campaign).

Unplayable due to uncontrollabe mouse behaviour
by Werner Lehmann on Monday January 11th 2016, 16:01

I applied the above mentioned winetricks and the game starts fine, but the mouse behaviour is uncontrollable which makes the game unplayable. But without native dinput8 the game won't start at all.
