Call of Cthulhu: Dark Corners of the Earth

What works

• Installation
• configurator
• various unofficial translation patches (russian)
• game itself

it runs much faster than with 0.9.x wine as for i remember

What does not

game works but there are a lot of glitches and issues like:

• sometimes, instead of dropping FPS game drops character\camera speed but keeps same speed for world. it's especially bad if someone chasing you

(probably same in native environment = engine bug)


• graphical effects out of place/corrupted or not present with no errors\warnings in log
• lips out of sync
• fps drops with no apparent reason

Workarounds

What was not tested

• videos
• much of the gameplay

Hardware tested

Graphics:

• GPU:
• Driver:

if you experience slowdown in moving speed of your character, try to disable VSync in your X drivers

if your picture is choppy some times, try to toggle it on.

(way to do so is different for all drivers)
