In case you guys haven't heard yet, WineX 4.0 is out (www.transgaming.com). Please post any comments or reviews for WineX 4.0 as I am curious to see how much of a milestone this is versus previous versions of WineX.

Seems the server is still suffering from the /.ing it go earlier :(

Yeah the site is really slow right now, the funny part for me just last night i decided to subscribe for winex, i downloaded winex 3. something and i installed it and click refresh on the screen and noticed i was on a different site(as far as it looked). I had to uninstall all of it and reinstall winex to 4. It really didnt seem that slow last night.

lol that's freaky - so you have cedega4 now? How is it?

Steve

it's not all too different to winex 3.3.2 as far as i can tell until now. i've only tried half-life mods (with steam) though and they had quite some problems (which i had not with winex 3.3.2). so for me it's a downgrade...

What other games have you tried with cedega?

I was able to install Star Wars Galaxies: An Empire Divided using 4.0 last night. The install went fine without using the stupid point2play system. Once I got it installed I was able to play log in and play without to many problems. The only major problem I saw was that in game you could only read about every other letter that was typed maybe less. So if you dont need to read anything and just fight it would work great.

I am going to be trying to get Medal of Honor:Allied Assault installed tonight with the 1.11 patch but I am a little worried about that because I play with custom maps and I am not sure how to get them in the main folder for the game since I am not a programer I can not make a exe file that will install them in that location.

I cant wait til I get back to a Linux system to try it out... Ive been waiting for pixel shader support!

What about Broodwar 1.11. Have you tried it? Particularly playing on the Battlenet

Civilization3 doesn't seem work. It only runs on Winex 3.2.1. Any later versions either produce error messages or don't run. Black and White and Warcraft3 run though.

Anyone tried star wars jedi academy with cedega?

I just installed Mandrake 10 and Winex 4.0 and then I installed Steam, but it doesn't seem to get past the Updating thing it does at installation... any clues?

EDIT: Nevermind, it finally started updating after a few minutes.
EDIT2: Ok... I get Steam installed and CS updated, I start CS and it's running at 4 fps on the splash screen... how can I fix this? Obviously it's a video problem, I'm just too new to Linux to know how. Using Mandrake 10, btw.

Mandrake 10 seems to have a big problem with Nvidia as I have winex 3.3.3-1 and I run cs with about 30fps when I can run it at 60 fps stable in windows... In mdk10 sometimes it drops to 1-fps or so... Maybe it's your video card or your nvidia drivers. Tell me if you get it working better as mdk seems to be the only os that works without a flaw here, when i install fedora or any other distro that I tried I had like 10 problems to fix before I could start using it after the install...

Well I got my video driver problems worked out, I have a Radeon 9600SE by the way, but now Steam won't frickin start... I double click the icon on the desktop but it just won't get running.

EDIT: Fixed this problem, but now CS crashes every time I try to get it up because of some filesystem error.

Jedi academy with cedega? Not tried it yet, I'll try it out tonight after work.
Been playing JA useing:

1. a game launcher
2. wine
3. And a good cd-check-patch, that goes around the
security-check. (since wine doesn't support safedisk etc..)

...And yes, it "was" reeeaaaally hard to get it work like that...
