What works

Game installs ok and seems to run fine first time with no major tinkering needed.

I have only tested single player on 1920 x 1080 resolution as far as the first level but no major issues.  Graphics, sound, keyboard, mouse, all running fine.

I have patched to version 1.42d before running.

Additional Comments

Delighted that this works so well and so easily. I followed the advice of the other tester on here and found and installed the v1.42d patch. The "start menu" entry which wine creates comes up with error "file not found", but this may be due to the multiple wine prefixes I have installed - I've not checked further. This is straightforward to workaround by launching the .exe file from the wine c drive folder. There were a few issues to begin with as the game defaults to 640 x 480 resolution, which seemed to display the menus ok but messed up my desktop on exiting the game. This problem was fixed with changing the resolution to the same as the desktop.

HowTo / Notes

Workaround for a crash

If you notice the crash during game start, it could be caused by issue in AMD/Mesa drivers.

To workaround it, run the game with following environment variables set:

 NVidia: __GL_ExtensionStringVersion=17700 wine WolfSP.exe
 Intel/AMD: MESA_EXTENSION_MAX_YEAR=2005 wine WolfSP.exe
