Dungeon Siege II

What works

almost everything except what does not work

What does not

well when i kill monsters they don't really die, they just stay standing on the place where u have killed them and they stay looking at you (bug 8236) and sometimes u have to wait before the menu's fully come up. One last thing the portrait of the person u made doesn't show up, the other portraits do show up. And u can't cast certain combat magic and nature magic (probably bug 8236 or some missing d3d9 functionality).

Workarounds

What was not tested

Multiplayer because the network code's of wine are still very experimental.

Hardware tested

Graphics:

• GPU:
• Driver:

Additional Comments

The rendering in wine happens faster then the rendering in cedega.

1. Download the native mfc42.dll and place it in ~/.wine/drive_c/windows/system32/

2. Install it using the command

wine Setup.exe

(Make sure that you properly described your cd-rom letter in the winecfg---> drives button) 

2b. If you have for e.g. 4CD version and have problems with installation process (installer don't recognizes second cd in the drive) try to copy all 4 CD into one folder and then install. It installs but there can be some errors with game's working.

Another way is to make CD images and then push the install button.

3. Open up your terminal and use the command and type in Dunegon Siege 2 game folder

wine DungeonSiege2.exe

and you are ready to play.

When the intro video's(Microsoft games, dungeon siege 2 etc.) don't work fluently, try to return to the desktop and shut down some no needed process's.
