Thanks a lot wine, you've made me an unreal addict again

It seems almost to good to be true, I'm able to run Unreal with so much ease. The more and more I use linux the more I realize its potential. I just wanted to tank everyone for all the support. But wait theres more! Thought you would get away without any technical questions do you? So far the only change I've made to my wine config file is to add a [WinMM] section. Is there anything else I should add to get better preformance? And if there are any unreal tournament fans out there, is there a way to stop Unreal Tournament from opening in full screen mode? I can go into windows to change that. X freezes if I try to put anything in Full Screen. I'm not going to complain, its a miracle that I got Unreal working at all, and I can just drag corners to make it almost full screen.
thanks.

ummmmm my question is why not just run it natively? I've run UT GOTY natively in linux and I know they have the binaries for the standard UT.

Fingel · 03-12-2003, 08:16 PM

because I dont want to buy it? Yeah, thats the reason...

Palin · 03-12-2003, 08:17 PM

I'm confused but uhhhhhhhhh ok

Fingel · 03-12-2003, 08:24 PM

why? I have UTGOTYE on windows, I just dont want to buy it for Linux, uless the CD comes with the binaries on it, which I cant find right now...

Palin · 03-12-2003, 08:27 PM

You can download the binary installer for free took me a little bit to locate it but I found it.

Fingel · 03-12-2003, 08:30 PM

No way?! I should check that out? Any Idea of how you found it? Is it completely independant from the WIndows version or will I still need some of the original files? Sounds good though!

Palin · 03-12-2003, 08:32 PM

actually it uses the windows intsall CDs

Fingel · 03-12-2003, 08:33 PM

do you think itys possible to upgrade to 436 for GOTY? I see patches for 436, but they are for "Unreal Tournament" same thing you think?

Palin · 03-12-2003, 08:48 PM

Yes you can get to 436 for GOTY on the second link there is an installer for GOTY 436. Definitely want the one for GOTY
