I can not seem to get counter strike working on my laptop. I have counter strike on a cd but it's an older version just to drag over to the hard drive there is no setup and play during lan partys but i have tried to play it on slackware 10. I have winex installed but when i try to play the game to run it it gives me this error

root@slack_02:~#winex -workdir "~/.transgaming/c_drive/cs"
"C:/cs/cstrike.exe" -console -game cstrike
/usr/bin/winex: line 164: cd: ~/.transgaming/c_drive/cs: No such file or directory
wine: lstat /root/.transgaming/wineserver-slack_02/socket : No such file or directory
even though that directory is there.
I then tried to use a retail version condition zero
I logged into root and mount /mnt/cdrom
then winex /mnt/cdrom/setup.exe it gave me wine: lstat /root/.transgaming/wineserver-slack_02/socket : No such file or directory and next it tried the other setup up file winex /mnt/cdrom/czero_setup.exe it gave me the exact same error

please help anybody I need this to work really bad because i'm never going back to any MS operating system.

I made it work with Crossover office but with a very low fps:P

I haven't tried to play CS in Linux, (only some Windows strategy games), but do you think it will be possible to play over a LAN? Is this Windows specific? I think no. Also delta_simon how much fps do you achieved with Crossover and what kinda PC. I'm asking to see if I will achieve playable framerate on my PC .

Thanks for tying to help me but i have a question what it fps? and I will try crossover office when i find it. but can anyone get cs working in winex? i'm only doing this to help the development of winex and getting Cs working in linux with winex . Does anybody here Play Shogo Mobile armor division? what about raven shield athena sword? and do these games work in linux Please keep replying to this thread so i can try to get cs working in slackware 10 with winex. My Friend Got CS working in Mandrake 10.1 but he says when he clicks on play cs or anything it freezes and it he has to hit escape to be able to click again on something. but it won't let him even play the game please reply oh and it is possible to play over lan in windows but i can only tell you when i get it up and running

fps is frames per second. It means how fast your computer is able to redraw the contents of the screen. More fps - more playable game. I think lower than 15 fps is unplayable, but some will say that even 50 are not enough. This game is old and in windows a friend is playing day and night CS with a Pentium II 266 MHz/Voodoo2. So I hope it will give me enough fps on a Pentium 4 wth Crossover ot Wine.

FragCow I'm sorry but I haven't heared this games (I'm not very big gamer), but I think CS is known to work with wine and also winex(isn't it called Cedega now?)

Are we talking about the same CS? I am talking about CS 1.5, not 1.6, nor Source.

Drop Counter-Strike and go for Wolfenstein : Enemy Territory with the TC:Elite-mod, which has many resemblances with Counter Strike. Download the mod from here : http://www.truecombat.com/intro.php?x=d

I did get just about 10 fps or so but I just used 16 of 64 MB from my video adapter.

16 MB should be enough for CS. It's perfectly enough for the textures I think.

Wolfenstein works in Linux?

I would remember that my video adapter didn´t support anything else than software acceleration. Like I said
it did obviously run with a low fps.
