is crysis 2 now working with wine 1.5.10 ? or 1.4.1 ?

Post by dschinn »

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.

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.
