What works
Everything
What does not
Playing game with a Geforce card using and Nvidia driver beyond 185.18.36 will result in a "buffer overrun error". To fix this issue, change your startup command: From this: "wine CoDUOSP.exe" To this: "__GL_ExtensionStringVersion=17700 wine CoDUOSP.exe" The __GL_ExtensionStringVersion is an environment variable that in this case is set to 17700. What this is doing it telling the NVIDIA driver to report the GL_ExtensionString as if the driver was from the 177.00 series. This effectively eliminates the overrun error and allows the game to start.

Since this is an expansion pack, please refer to any tickets or problems in Call of Duty and/or attempt to execute Call of Duty before posting any problems.
In my personal experience with the game(s) I have not had a problem in this expansion without the base game (Call of Duty) also being at fault.
