Additional Comments

I have tested this game A LOT. It is completely playable. My way of dealing with the mouse issue is to set the sensitivity all the way up on the mouse.

1: Create a file called R6VScript.sh 

2: paste the following into it and edit the screen resolution you are using.

#!/bin/bash
#
DesktopScreenRes="1360x768"
IngameScreenRes="1280x720"
PathToReg="/home/username/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/Ubisoft/Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Vegas/Binaries"
xrandr -s "$IngameScreenRes"
regedit "$PathToReg/R6V-Pre.reg"
wine "/home/chaoscode/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/Ubisoft/Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Vegas/Binaries/R6Vegas_Game.exe"
xrandr -s "$DesktopScreenRes"
regedit "$PathToReg/R6V-Post.reg"

3: create a file called R6V-Pre.reg and paste and save the following.

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Wine\Direct3D]
"DirectDrawRenderer"="opengl"
"OffscreenRenderingMode"="fbo"
"RenderTargetLockMode"="readtex"
"UseGLSL"="enabled"

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Wine\DirectInput]
"MouseWarpOverride"="force"

4:create a file called R6V-Post.reg and paste and save the following.

 [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Wine\Direct3D]
"DirectDrawRenderer"=-
"OffscreenRenderingMode"=-
"RenderTargetLockMode"=-
"UseGLSL"=-

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Wine\DirectInput]
"MouseWarpOverride"=-

5: Edit thePathToReg to match were you saved the .reg files to.

Notes: Use the keyboard to nav though the menus as the MouseWarpOverride locks the mouse to the middle of the windows. This lets ingame play work flawlessly.
