Hello pangolins and else Linuxers !

Is wine 1.5.10 working with crysis 2 ?

Or is wine 1.4.1 already sufficient for to run crysis 2 with ?

To me it was never working with crysis 2 - apparently because nvidia-driver for linux
is buggy and does not support GeForce GT 540M here with nvidia-optimus resp. with CUDA ?
So wine above with crysis 2 is not working with vesa ? Or am I wrong ?

what should I do step by step with Ubuntu 12.04 LTS ?

Thank you for your answer.
best regards.

It's iffy to get working but it's been working for quite some time now

For Ubuntu 12.04 32 bits wine 1.5.10 works perfectly with Crysis 2.

PATCHES
=======
You need to apply the following patches

- http://www.davidgis.fr/download/patches ... ffer.patch else crysis 2 may crash while playing. I read a lot of forums saying that this patch is not mandatory. I tested a lot of wine versions. My conclusion is that this patch is mandatory!

- http://www.davidgis.fr/download/patches ... game.patch so yan can resume (load a save game).

I advise you to use a dedicated WINEPREFIX for playing Crysis 2 because the first patch above may hit performance for other games.
