Total War (Rome and Medieval demo's) - crash on my setup
Total War (Rome and Medieval demo's) - crash on my setup
I'm newish to Linux and new to WINE.
I've downloaded the Rome-Total War demo, and the Medieval-Total War demo (the first one, not Med-II).
They both appear to have installed OK, but both crash with an error message if I attempt to start them.
Other applications I've tried (Paint Shop Pro 4.12, Microsoft powerpoint viewer 2003, for examples) seem to work OK.
Total War error basically says:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Program Error
The program <rome.exe> has encountered a serious problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience.
It then goes on to say this may be caused by the program or a deficiency in Wine and gives the database site and the bugs list URLs.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
The above appears before anything appears to have really started up, i.e. no splash screens or menus appear. Similar fault for Medieval but the file is <Medieval_TD.exe>.
The AppDB seems to imply the demo for Rome should be OK, but that Med may not be.
Question: Can anyone tell me if either of these demo's does or should run on WINE? Or is there a particular file/folder/option I need to create or alter in order to get them running?
Kernel - 2.6.26.8
Wine - wine-1.1.28
Running KDE 4.3.2
CPU - 800 Ath
Ram 768M
GPU - GF2/64M
I realize the H/W specs maybe a little near the lower end, but I think they meet the min requirements (Ram/GPU) and maybe just under for CPU - would this stop it running?
Thanks.

[quote="pickles95"]Thanks for the reply. Sorry if I've attached these incorrectly, they seem quite long.

After upgrading make sure you have installed Wine debug symbols. However it's unlikely you'll get anywhere far with your hardware. It's drivers aren't that good and GF2 lacked lots and lots of things required by Wine.pickles95 wrote:Backtrace:

OK, thanks for the info.
I'll abandon this for now:
1. I'm new-ish to Linux and only upgrade from the Package Manager (its easier and usually works). The update isn't in it yet.
2. Its an old PC and I don't wanna spend any money on it, and its the only GPU I had to use in it.
I'll either wait for the update and try then, or just remove these demo's.
Thanks for your comments/help.

As luck would have it 1-1-32 has just arrived in the package manager, and is now installed.
No joy, it still fails to run either.
I guess thats it then for these demos, as its not worth spending cash on such an old PC (assuming it is the GF2 thats causing the problem).
Thanks for all assistance/comments.
