It asks for an DirectX update on the first run, I clicked Yes/OK and it did whatever it had to do without complaining, and the started exactly like it does in Windows (only faster).

What does not

  • Nothing

The only difference between running it on Wine and on Windows is that it lacks some of the fancy graphics provided by DirectX

Workarounds

What was not tested

  • Joining a online server
  • Joining a "wine server"
  • Running The Ship standalone (DVD) without Steam
  • ATI Graphic card

Additional Comments

Starting The Ship, loading maps and quitting is noticeably faster than under Windows on the same computer.

HowTo / Notes

HOWTO

In order to get this game to run you may need to do the following:

  • Add d3dx8.dll as a dll overide under the "Libraries" tab in winecfg.
This dll can be downloaded from a windows machine or located and downloaded online.  Check your ~/.wine/drive_c/windows/system32 for this dll, if you have d3dx8d.dll or a .dll with a similar name you can rename this dll to d3dx8.dll and it should work just the same.
