Stronghold Crusader

In order to get the library overrides to work you have to use the windows/syswow64 folder instead of the window/system32 folder. Then it works fine.

The game get stuck'd on loading while Gameranger is opened making unable to play multi and single player even

Eventually closing the GameRanger lobby will allow to see the game host panel, if hosting, and will stuck here with players not connecting. Other side while joining it get stucked on Waiting for host monitor

I have not tested multiplayer because at the moment I cannot (insanely slow university internet speed)... but single player (campaigns or skirmish or custom map) works perfectly without GameRanger.

After update wine to 1.5.25 game crash on startup with errors

I am using Wine 1.2.3 on mac os X 10.6.7 and the game will not even start up. Whenever I start the game up it says "The program has experienced a serious problem and needs to close". I can't see what I did wrong because the game seemed to install perfectly without errors. Here is what I did. Please help me out if anyone can.

Hello, Linux CentOS 6.2 with integrated Intel graphics and Wine 1.2.3 here. I am having similar problems running the demo. I submitted a bug No. 31079

well then dont use the old stable? use 1.4

When I try to load Crusader - it loads perfectly, and all functions are stable, but game lasts with a very low fps. I can choose some options in menu, but when I start the gameplay window - it almost impossible to build the main tower...
wine 1.2 / Pentium 4 (2,4) / 764 mb / Radeon 9250 (256/128)

It`s impossible, that game with so minimal requirements cant be load in my pc.

I run the version of Wine that comes with Winebottler on a Mac that runs OSX 10.6.3. I installed the program fine but when I try to open it i get a prompt that says it is experiencing major difficulties and needs to close and to come here to see whats up. I can't find anything to tell me what to do and if anyone can help it would be great. I have not much experience with any computing beyond basic use so please write for stupid people. Thanks.

If you encounter with a black screen while running, you have to put check mark beside the "Unredirect Fullscreen Windows" General Options in CompizConfig

Has anyone ever got sound to stop working while playing? It happened to me twice: the first time, reinstalling the game solved the problem but not the second time. Anyone got a fix for this?

sorry for the double post (didn't see any edit button...) I forgot the following:
wine version is 1.1.2;
the sound stops working lasts too long;
reinstalling the game via setup.exe seems to solve this (at least temporarily), but not installing it through the autorun.

For anyine who might encounter this problem: the solution is to always run the installed .exe in the folder in which the 2 dlls Mss32.dll and bink32.dll are located instead of the one started via the autorun

NOTE: To that guy flaming below my post ( machspeed2200 ): The Wine team owes you nothing (it's rather you who owes them alot). Anger is no solution ( especially on the Internet ). Asking kindly always has better chances to get help. If you persist in your previous attitude, I hope you never read this howto.

Hi all,

I've noticed that some people had no cursor in Stronghold Crusader while others do.

After some thinkering, I've discovered that the reason why is that Stronghold Crusader has 2 cursors: the "white pointer cursor" and the "Stronghold custom sword cursor". While the first is a .cur file, the latter is a .ani file.
And Wine has no support for .ani cursors (as of 1.1.2 at least).

But The pig hasn't won yet Sir! Here's two ways to get the cursor working that I'll explain in details just for you :) .

FIRST METHOD (uneasy but will work if the links for the second method all stop working (which is very unlikely though))

This method is the first I found.
You may have noticed that in Stronghold, when the cursor is over a particular button, that same button gets highlighted (white rectangle around)?
Well, that's how we'll guess the cursor position and that's what makes this method quite hard to achieve.

1- Launch Stronghold Crusader like you usually do. Once the loading is complete, you get to the Stronghold Crusader menu (you know that "Greetings Sir, the desert awaits you" menu). You'll notice a key image (the text says "Options" when cursor's on it) in the lower right corner of the screen. By estimating your cursor position via the highlighting of the buttons, click on this key (it brings you to the "Game Options" menu).

2- In this "Game Options" menu, you'll notice a "Video Options" button, use the same technique to click on it.

3- In this "Video Options" menu, you'll see two images: a white pointer and a sword pointer. There should be a white rectangle around the sword pointer.
To see the pointer, you'll need to click on the white pointer image using the technique described before. The rectangle surrounding the sword pointer should surround the white pointer once you've clicked it.
Once it is done (rectangle around the white pointer), click on the "Apply" button.

4- There you go, you should see the pointer now. All you gotta do now is play Stronghold Crusader just like on Windows. Enjoy :) .

SECOND METHOD (fast)
Note: I recommend that you read the first method because if you ever click the sword image in video options, the pointer will disappear and this operation will have to be done again.

Finding the first method very uneasy, I "diff'ed" my whole .wine directory with a copy of that same .wine directory I just made before that. Doing so, I figured out that which cursor was being used was saved in the crusader.cfg file (located in the same directory as the "Stronghold Crusader.exe" file).

1- Download my crusader.cfg file from one of these sites (687 bytes file):
www.badongo.com/file/10599397
www.megaupload.com/?d=MXUSE8ZR
www.uploading.com/files/X9W8QJO1/crusader.cfg.html

(I put many URLs in case one of them is unavailable)

2- Then, locate your "Stronghold Crusader.exe" file.
Note: if you don't know how to do so, use this command in the terminal:
find ~/.wine -name Stronghold\ Crusader.exe

Which gives me:
vhann@vhanndinateurK:~$ find ~/.wine -name Stronghold\ Crusader.exe
/home/vhann/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/Stronghold Crusader/clsscs01/CRUSADER/Stronghold Crusader.exe

So my crusader.cfg file is located in /home/vhann/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/Stronghold Crusader/clsscs01/CRUSADER/Stronghold Crusader.exe

3- Copy and paste the crusader.cfg file you just downloaded in your Stronghold Crusader.exe directory (if it asks you to overwrite a file say yes)

Which would give for example:
vhann@vhanndinateurK:~$ cp /home/vhann/Desktop/crusader.cfg /home/vhann/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/Stronghold\ Crusader/clsscs01/CRUSADER/
(This just copies the file since I may need to copy it again, if I mess in the Video Options menu for example)
Note: You may also copy/paste this in any graphical file explorer (Konqueror, Dolphin, Nautilus, etc. ) instead of using the command-line like me.

4- Finally, all you have to do is start Crusader just like normal and enjoy playing it under your Linux box.

Vhann

Hum, can't edit my post :(.
Well, The header "machspeed2200
www.badongo.com/file/10599397
www.megaupload.com/?d=MXUSE8ZR
www.uploading.com/files/X9W8QJO1/crusader.cfg.html
$ find ~/.wine -name Stronghold\ Crusader.exe
/home/vhann/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/Stronghold Crusader/clsscs01/CRUSADER/Stronghold Crusader.exe"
should be stripped. It's there because I had to write my whole post in Kate (since the first time I posted it then submit, there was a MySQL error while sending and I lost everything...)

At least, klipper saved me by keeping the download URLs. Thank you Klipper :) .

Another fix: thinkering => tinkering

Following badongo link is useless: they're now making people pay and/or register before they can download. I hate this kind of thinking ("free sample then pay for more" kind)...

HOW COME THERE IS A REVIEW WITH A GOLD RATING AND THE COMMENT "Nothing doesn't work"?!?!?! I'M RUNNING WINE 1.1.0 AND STILL HAVE NO CURSOR!

Somebody had better explain what's going on here! >:(

I know that the cursors don't work because they're .ani, same issue that BF2 has, but while I was using 0.9.55 I at least had the default gnome cursor. Now in 0.9.57 there is nothing.

Anyone know where I can override this so I can at least get the default cursor like I had in 0.9.55? Otherwise I guess I can always go back to the earlier version >.>

IDK why it does this, but the game wont start.
The last line says "fixme:winmm:MMDRV_Exit Closing while ll-driver open", does that mean its trying to use something that is already being used.. or? help!

It works if I enable virtual desktop, but its not fullscreen or anything like windows, cant see everything on the game.

You need to edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf and add an entry for 800x600 resolution. Search for 'DefaultDepth' and edit the appropriate line of resolutions.

> what's your graphics card?
GF 6600

i've installed it, that worked fine.
cracked it, that worked fine.
but when i try to run it i get this

What graphics card/driver are you using?

hmm, now it works (even with aiglx). i don't understand this because i don't change something.
sorry... perhaps the pc reboot does something so that it works

i have an nvidia 6200 and use the nvidia drivers...

I have installed Stronghold Crusader and done what i think was a straight forward install. Though i could even manage to see it running. I would like you to elucidate me what am i doing wrong

Hope it helps

Is this still a problem with Wine 0.9.29? If so, please post the output of 'xrandr'.

xrandr >
SZ: Pixels Physical Refresh
*0 1280 x 1024 ( 342mm x 271mm ) *75
Current rotation - normal
Current reflection - none
Rotations possible - normal

In xorg.conf, within the section of the colour depth you use (normally 24), add the following

Modes "1280x1024" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"

Apparently it was irrelevant. Nothing changed

What is your distribution? Do you have execshield or similar stuff enabled?

i get the same error when i start the game. any suggestions posted here don't work for me. any other ideas?

Try setting ANGLX to false

I've had the same problem, I'm on Ubuntu 6.10, running Wine 0.3.5, I ran winecfg and from the display tab I activated "Emulate a virtual desktop option" and disabled "allow pixel shaders" and it worked, I have no idea why would these options work but they worked anyway :).

It seems that this game needs to be launched in a wine virtual desktop.

When I try to start Stronghold bij typing wine "Stronghold Crusader.exe" I get:

err:module:import_dll Library mss32.dll (which is needed by L"Z:\\home\\jeroen\\Desktop\\stronghold\\Stronghold Crusader.exe") not found
err:module:import_dll Library binkw32.dll (which is needed by L"Z:\\home\\jeroen\\Desktop\\stronghold\\Stronghold Crusader.exe") not found
err:module:LdrInitializeThunk Main exe initialization for L"Z:\\home\\jeroen\\Desktop\\stronghold\\Stronghold Crusader.exe" failed, status c0000135

Could someone help me please?

Is there a file called 'Mss32.dll' in your Stronghold Crusader directory?

I think the problem is that I can't figure out where Wine installed Stronghold. Could you please tell me wich map it is?

It seems to have installed it on the desktop. If this was not intentional, I suggest you remove ~/.wine (unless you have other applications installed) and install Stronghold: Crusader again.

hi again,

i did the changes that were suggested to me:

-------------------------
Edit /etc/hosts as follows

Remove the two lines starting with '127.', and add the following

127.0.0.1 localhost
192.168.0.100 envis-desktop
----------------------------

now the game sees my ip as 192.168.0.1 which is better, but the rest behaves exactly the same, i still see others hosting and can click join on them but then game crashes, others can see me hosting and click join but after thinking a litle bit eiher their game crashes or they're brought back to the chose multiplayer type of game menu...

i have installed Stronghold 1 too and it does exactly the same

now, remember its not so bad, both games work like a charm except for the multiplayer (but i dont really play games alone...)

both my stronghold (1 and Crusader) come packed togheter in a package called "Warchest" they each have 1 separated CD though. also they require no Crack at all...

the version of my Stronghold Crusader is 1.1, Stronghold 1 is 1.2

also im on Ubuntu 6.06 amd64-generic and i forced wine on my architecture following this guide: www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=185557

thanks for all the help : ) there is no limit to what i would do to be able to keep playing my games without having to dual bot : )

Then you can try using IPX for multiplayer.
The following command is supposed to set everything up for you, but I have not tried it myself.

sudo apt-get install ipx; sudo modprobe ipx; sudo ipx_interface add -p eth0 802.2 0x12345678

Then choose IPX when starting a multiplayer game.

hi its me again, as asked im posting the result of

/sbin/ifconfig:

and cat/etc/hosts:

127.0.0.1 localhost envis-desktop

ff00::0 ip6-mcastprefix
ff02::1 ip6-allnodes
ff02::2 ip6-allrouters
ff02::3 ip6-allhosts

thank you very much for the help!

Edit /etc/hosts as follows

Remove the two lines starting with '127.', and add the following

127.0.0.1 localhost
192.168.0.100 envis-desktop

the game is running fine but i cant seem to be able to play multiplayer. i followed the instructions for the dll to put in win32 and added all the names of dll to overide in the libraries sections of winecfg and since i did that now something happens when i click host or join on tcp/ip. i can see another game hosted on the network bt if i click join it thinks for a while and then the cursor changes back to the ubuntu desktop cursor and nothing else happens with stronghold, its bugged. also i can click host and get in the page where you wait for other players and set the game and other computers on the network can see me, but when clicking join on me.. it thinks for a while and then goes back to the menu to chose what kind of multiplayer game you want to play... stronghold in wine, when i go in multiplayer shows my ip adress is 127.0.0.1/127.0.1.1 its kind of weird but the other computer can see my game at the computer's router ip adress "192.168.0.100" and i also can connect to other games at their router's ip adress... the version of stronhold crusader i installed is from "stronghold warchest"... any idea why the multiplayer doesnt work for me?

Please post the output of '/sbin/ifconfig' and 'cat /etc/hosts'.
