Witcher 2 on Steam

[MaZ]

Hello,

Can anyone run the Witcher 2 Steam version on linux? I can install the game, but I'm having problems with Steam trying to install vcrun2010. I got past the error by replacing the vcredits package in "/steamapps/common/witcher2/redist" with a random executable file and renamed it to "vcredist_x86.exe" - so when Steam runs that file and the file runs and exits without an error, Steam thinks the install was successful. Now when I try to run the game nothing happens. I tried running it from the command line "wine witcher2.exe" and the output is this:

Code: Select all

then I try it again and I get a different output:

with this patch fbe.am/i5D - changing Launcher -
i see appear one ,two , Infinite Installing DirectX
again and again. 1-2 seconds for every

At this point, you'd be well advised to either wipe out your existing wine prefix and start from scratch, or create an alternate prefix and use that. Also, if you install the witcher 2 without installing any of the dotnets, the game will work, providing you install the official dotnet remover patch for the witcher 2. If you google "witcher 2 remove dotnet" or something, that should lead you to it.

All you really need for this game is physx, and the directx dlls, I think.

[scix]

I don't think the launcher will work even with the remover patch so make sure you launch the game binary directly (bin/witcher2.exe). You can run bin/Configurator.exe to configure video settings etc, or just edit User.ini in the Witcher 2 dir in My Documents.

Also I recommend using the CSMT patchset which should give you close to 2x performance: http://www.winehq.org/pipermail/wine-de ... 01106.html
