Antichamber

What works

Game installs and is 100% playable to end game and credits.

Complete installation process

•  Create an empty 32 bit Wine Prefix:
  WINEPREFIX='/home/username/prefix32' WINEARCH='win32' wine 'wineboot'
  
• Run Configure Wine, under the Graphics tab
• Check "Automaticaly capture the mouse in full-screen windows" (Makes the game go full screen automatically on start.)
• Uncheck "Allow the window manager to decorate the windows" (Increased FPS when disabled.)
• Uncheck "Allow the window manager to control the windows" (Increased FPS when disabled.)
• Get the current version of winetricks and install .NET 4.0 and .NET 3.5:
  winetricks dotnet40
  winetricks dotnet35
• Install Steam
• Quit Steam and run (Portal instructions, plus Steam dwrite fix):
  wine steam -no-dwrite
• Install Antichamber. Steam will install DirectX, Physx, and VS2008.
• Steam will start the .NET 3.5 installer. Kill this process (setup.exe).
• Start the game. The Unreal engine intro video plays, then there is a 3-5 second pause and the game starts.

What does not

• Extremely minor sound issues.
• Windowed mode hides the game and the mouse cursor.
• Alt-tab causes long, but recoverable delays.
• First time starting the game, every time, the screen goes black and audio starts, but graphics do not. Holding ESC exits. Restart and everything works.
• Screen resolution does not reset on exit.

What was not tested

All major functionality was tested.
