Ok heres the deal..... Im not a gamer, this is the first game Ive bought in 4 years so please bear with me. Ive been playing RTCW MP2 Test since it came out , I loved it. Sooo...when it hit the shelves I bought it, now, heres the hook, I run only linux...but Im a completley impatient person so....I bought the windows version assuming I could run it under linux, I can, it rocks, all except one detail in the single player version (I mostly wanted the multi online) but its driving me nuts. I CANT GET THE FRIGGIN SOUND RIGHT on the single player version, its perfect on th e MP version (after some tweaking)But it sounds like a 78 rpm record at 33 rpm, ( Ive probably just dated myslef there with the fact I know what that sounds like) sllloooowww , lagggy, I fire and 5 seconds later a shot is heard. I am running a RedHat 7.2 box , 512 megs, GeoForce2 Twin head 32 megs ram, blah blah, blah, VIA chipset onboard sound, yes all modules are loaded, as I said It works perfect on the Multi Player Version. Wine is built using the CVS sources for TransGamings WineX on 11/22 I tried a couple of the HL sound hacks Ive seen, and unless Im doing it wrong (very possible) it dosent work, the MP only had to have wav only set to 1 to sound right. Now when I fire wine , I get 2 distinct differences between SP and MP, MP reads simply. fixme:system SystemParamaterInfA unimplemented action :97 (something screensaver suff runnning) fixme:system SystemParamaterInfA unimplemented action :97 (something screensaver suff runnning) Now when I run the SP (Single Player) I get that , plus the following error twice fixme:dsound:IDirectSoundImpl_SetCooperativeSoundLevel(0x40498b34,0010027,2):stub I have tried all the touching of the dsound stuff in wine as suggested in the HL wine docs, etc. I have tried the reversing of dsound native, blah blah. Anyway if anyone has a suggestion I would appreciate it. This rocks on Linux, at work I have a dev box, its is dual boot, and 100% identical to this one, RTCW actually runs better under Wine than on W2K. Another oddity is the Networking under wine seems MUCH better than the MP Test 2 native linux version. Chris Wertman
