Lineage 2 (Gracia part 3 : Final) & Wine

Bibischaff · Post by **Bibischaff** » Tue Jan 12, 2010 4:55 pm

Hi everybody,

I've played Lineage2 since a long time ago on Windows.
Now, I discover the joices of ubuntu (9.10), and try to make this game work through Wine.

Why the hell it doesn't work, i don't know, but that's it :

Firts time i've tried, i had the latest wine version (1.1.31), i have installed Lineage (part 3, gracia final, so), i tried to launch L2.exe and... nothing. It works for 5 secs and no more. (i want to connect on a private server, so i know i don't use the lineage2.exe file but l2.exe in system folder)

Well. After consulting the Wine AppDB, i see that there is no test on Ubuntu 9.10. (http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.p ... &iId=15444)
However, it seems to work with wine 1.1.27. I install it, re-install Lineage, re-launch it and... nothing more.

I have tried through PlayOnLinux. But some bugs appeared :
One time, when lauching L2.exe, it said "incorrect name". Re-installing the game repairs the problem. Another time, the launching picture appears, and a message error saying that AGP was not actived. Next try nothing more than 5 seconds hard disk working.

Since, i have ALWAYS these 5 seconds, but NO MORE error messages, launching picture or something else.

A long time ago, GameGuard was my problem, with ubuntu 8.04 and Lineage Chronicle 3. Now, I followed the wineAppDB instructions, replaced the files named in other tests (on Ubuntu 9.04, with other wine versions...).

If someone could help me, there will be really, really fine

Thanks a lot !

NB : Ubuntu 9.10 Karmic Koala, Nvidia display (tried 173.14.20 and 185.18.36 drivers), Lineage 2 Gracia : part 3 (Final), private server whitout patch (i tried with a patch too), i actually use gnome with compiz (that has crashed after that "AGP not activated" error).

One thing more, after the AGP error, i've modified an xorg.conf file (was hard to create it) with an " Option "NvAGP" "3"" in Driver section (someone (that knows much more thing than me in linux) told me that it could better work).
I don't have that message since, but the game doesn't work even.

There is some new things :

When wine is configured in Windows 98 version, the game is launching, an error message appears but nothing is written. Don't have the polices installed, i mean.

The error message was a classical GameGuard error.

I've downloaded the gameguard patch (on http://fyyre.ivory-tower.de/) and no more error message.

But, no text.
Embarassing.

I progress !

YEAAAAAAAH !
Now it works !

I've followed some of these explanations (http://doc.ubuntu-fr.org/lineageii).

So, I recapitulate. How to install and launch Lineage 2 Gracia : part 3 (Final) through wine (1.0.1) ?

After installation (of wine first then Lineage, of course), change compatiblity mode of wine to Windows 98, replace the DSETUP.dll with the one on http://fyrre.ivory-tower.de/ (gameguard patch), add the fonts given here http://www.megaupload.com/?d=2PSJ4DVU in ~/.wine/drive_c/windows/Fonts/, dont forget to change the host file if connecting on a private server (publics don't work), and launch L2.exe in system folder.

And, enjoy.

Note : i again have the "AGP not activated" error, but with clicking OK the game works. Don't worry.

Exactly. The GameGuard prog is necessary to play on officials.

Installation

Before begin i recommend to uninstall previous version of wine and delete catalog with configuration (/home/user/.wine)

1. Download two patches:
- AGP -> http://rm.pp.ru/dl/wine/patches/0001-Wi ... VIDM.patch
- Camera Fix -> http://rm.pp.ru/dl/wine/patches/MouseWa ... ckV4.patch
3. We need a source wine -> http://sourceforge.net/projects/wine/fi ... 2/download
If u want to install different version of wine u can find it here -> http://sourceforge.net/projects/wine/files/Source/
4. Decompress the source of wine
5. Paste patches to wine main directory
6. In console type (make it for both patches): patch -p1 -N < patch_name.patch
7. Then type: ./configure --prefix=/usr
8. Next command is (it will take few minutes): make depend && make
9. That's almost finish. Now u need only to install it, make it typing: sudo make install

After run first program through wine catalog with wine configuration will be created. (/home/user/.wine)

CONFIGURATION

1.In console type regedit
2.Go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Wine\DirectInput if catalog don't exist DirectInput so create it. Click right mouse button on 'wine' and choose new key.
3. Click on DirectInput then on the right side click new->text data
4. Use this name MouseWarpOverride and this value rmb
5. Close regedit and run the game (command wine l2.exe game directory) - there is no agp error and camera works correctly.
6. Edit file /etc/security/limits.conf
7. at the end change:
Code:
# End of file
for Code:
* hard nofile 16383
# End of file
8. Save file.

PROBLEMS

- Sometimes during l2 launch may display message about corrupted DirectX and that u need install version 8.1

1. U need download program l2encodec form here http://dstuff.l2wh.com/ and decompress it to system dir in your game directory
2. In console type: wine l2encdec.exe -d l2.ini l2dec.ini
3. Edit file l2dec.ini
4. Find entry D3DDrv.D3DRenderDevice next in line with UseHardwareTL and UseHardwareVS change value from True to False.
5. Save changes and type wine l2encdec.exe -e 413 l2dec.ini l2.ini

#If sometimes ur l2 dosesn't run and hangs at

Code: Select all

AL lib: pulseaudio.c:386: Context did not get ready: Connection Refused

1.Open console then type
2.Sudo kwrite /etc/pulse/client.conf
3.Find ;autospawn = yes and change it to -> autospawn = no

Damian_suse thank u for this instruction step by step. AGP problem disappear but game still don't want to run. When i type "wine l2.exe" this windows will appear for couple of seconds and disappear.

and screen shot form console :

Maybe the problem is in graphic card ? I got ATI Radeon x1050/9550. I know ATI don't support any more this graphic cards on new ubuntu so i have to use a open drivers.

Hey Lineage 2 lovers

, does anybody know why I don't have any texts in Lineage ? Although Lineage works like a charm, I see no text, titles, names, etc. What should be the option ?

Have a look at point 4 in the HOWTO here:
