I posted everything I have done and the PlayonLinux debug logs. https://www.playonlinux.com/en/topic-14711.html Two errors I continue to get are: ERROR:network_change_notifier_win.cc(111)] WSALookupServiceBegin failed with: 8 fixme:d3d:wined3d_check_device_format_conversion wined3d 0x16a0b0, adapter_idx 0, device_type WINED3D_DEVICE_TYPE_HAL, src_format WINED3DFMT_B8G8R8A8_UNORM, dst_format WINED3DFMT_B8G8R8X8_UNORM stub! In researching these two errors, I have also tried: Changing the display settings in PoL Running SWTOR in a virtual desktop Switching from nvidia-3.61 (361.42-0ubuntu2) to xserver-xorg-video-nouveau (1:1.0.12-1build2) in Driver Manager. Installed, reinstalled everything in Update Manager that has "opengl" and "mesa", and "winbind" in either the package name or description. Disabled BitRaider. Installed winetricks and added winhttp, wininet. Deleting the SWTOR virtual machine and reinstalling from scratch (saving downloaded contents to save time and bandwidth). No matter what I do, it just won't run.

This game requires a 32-bit Wine prefix. To ensure this is so, prefix all commands with "env WINEARCH=win32", or do "export env WINEARCH=win32" once before running any commands.

With some versions of Wine, the game will crash if icons are hovered over on the main map. Avoid this by keeping the mouse out of the way when viewing the map.

This bug occurs for some players, but not all. I (Scott Weldon) have tested with Wine 1.7.50, and the game did not crash when hovering over icons on the map. However, other users have reported that they are still experiencing the bug. Any help in narrowing down the cause is appreciated.

Before running the game, launch swtor_fix.exe (found here) in the background.
