Hiji, I installed 20050628 a couple of nights ago and as usual, Half-Life does not play well. I had planned to take it off this weekend and put 20031016 back on, but just for the heck of it, I tried Unreal. It works much better than it ever has with previous wine versions. The graphics are clean, the movement is smooth and the sound FX are in sync! I guess I need to run two wine versions and CXOffice now! Not. Rick Knight Hiji wrote: >I'm using gnome...
