Close Combat and Linux / Wine

[Brausepaul]

Hi,

is anybody running this game under Linux / Wine?

[CSO_Talorgan]

No, but that's only because the new Linux-box-to-be is in bits on the study floor. Prospects for success are high as long as the machine has enough grunt. If it doesn't, go the VMWare route instead.

I'm using Openuse 11.1 and got unpacking error while installing. quite odd that my install works in windows.

I can't speak for Linux/WINE, but I do have it running in OS X under Parallels, works fine. Might want to check Transgaming and Crossover Games for tweaking info.

Probably unnecessary. Wacht am Rhein worked fine on WINE; no tweaking required. The only problems related to underpowered hardware. The Longest Day should do the same.

@Brausepaul: Is it really you? Perhaps you can post a few words on our forum? Greetings

I'm considering a mac Purchase for my Family PC.

Can you shed any light on how Parallels works with Close Combat.

Is it free?

Do you need a copy of windows?

Any special settings?

Any considerations for H2H play?

thanks

Parallels is a Software to buy. Fusion should do the same but costs money too.

And yes you need a Windows XP copy too.

For H2H play I would suggest to use 'bridged' network settings.

No idea about any special settings for the MAC and Parallels/Fusion.

Mmh, since there's no demo available, any ideas how I could test it? Btw, does it run well under Vista (in case I can't make it to run under Linux).

[Andrew Williams]

Runs perfectly under Vista
