Mobile Forces

What works

- Installation of the game, changing resolution

- Singleplayer (Missions and Skirmish both work)

- Multiplayer (Hosting and Joining both work)

- Alt-tabbing!

What does not

- Rendering of cars is still dark almost 100% of the time. It's probably a game engine issue.

- The game doesn't always start the first time you try to start it.

Additional Comments

Read the how to "Game sometimes refuses to start" for a workaround about the start bug.

The game uses the Unreal engine, and it shares the same bug in Wine with it. 

It is possible that the game does not start the first time you try, but instead just crashes.

To me it seems kind of random, but more chance of it happening after you've shutdown the game and then try to start it.

How to fix this? Well I don't know about a "true" fix, but an easy one is to just open a console in the game folder, execute wine MobileForces.exe, and if it crashes or hangs, just press CTRL+C and try again.

 -- WARNING

If you started the game previously (by double clicking) and it did crash, it is possible that the process will eat your CPU away in the background. This should not happen if you launch it through a terminal, as you can always terminate the game safely.
