lgtspecb, you are my hero :o I followed your instructions and everthing works fine :D Now I can run Torchlight in Opengl with good performance. I wanted to say that the full and correct path to the settings.txt file is: /home/dong/.wine/drive_c/windows/profiles/<username>/Application Data/runic games/torchlight At least on my system :) Now I can enjoy this fantastic game. Well okay, I have to set up the settings in the settings.txt cause trying to open the settings menu ingame leads to a crash. But thats okay. The thing that troubles me more is integrating this game into the desktop-environment. I can not minimize the game or tab away without getting into a "torchlight.exe not responding" situation. If someone has some hints on that I would appreciate any help or directions. Thanks
