Working, with my 32Bit prefix and the steam version.
But i do have some problems:
- i have set up a virtual desktop, but game still launches in fullscreen
- the game sometimes has laggs that could kill you later
- as you mentioned ui flickering, not that importand
- the worst: playing with a 360 controller, and clicking the stick to target enemies does NOT work. is there a way to fix this?

Thanks for your work!

E: figured out that you just have to use the other analog stick now - not the best solution, but it works. anyway my right trigger does not work =( fixes for that? (works in other games)

cars10,

Good to know that it works!

Documentation to generate those DLL can be found at http://www.davidgis.fr/documentation/Da ... index.html
- i have set up a virtual desktop, but game still launches in fullscreen
I know that it is doable to update resolution in game BUT i don't really if it helps. I can't really help you for this step
the worst: playing with a 360 controller, and clicking the stick to target enemies does NOT work. is there a way to fix this?
I have the same issue here with my 360 controller. There might be a good configuration file for xboxdrv or maby a patch. I will try to investigate on this issue when I get free time

Thanks for your feeback. I really appreciate it

cars10,

For the 360 conrtoller I forgot to mention that someone provided this command line at http://appdb.winehq.org/commentview.php ... adId=91396

On my side I did

sudo rmmod xpad
sudo kill -9 $(pidof xboxdrv)
xboxdrv --detach-kernel-driver --detach -D --force-feedback --deadzone 10% --trigger-as-zaxis --buttonmap tl=tr,tr=tl --axismap -trigger=trigger

Using this comma,d that it works like a charm! I can lock on/off :) ...No I can use it and play this game...and be ready to die :)

Kind regards

New DLLs have been generated and could be downloaded at https://www.mediafire.com/?71q4m50ty0ed3f3

I just apply patches to add NVIDIA Geforce GTX 760, GTX 750, GTX 780 and GTX 780 Ti

I updated my documentation available at http://www.davidgis.fr/documentation/Da ... index.html

- to use XBOX 360 controller
- to use these WIneD3D DLLs.

Kind regards

Thanks for the update, but running the xboxdrv command sadly does not work for me.

Code: Select all

~$ sudo xboxdrv --detach-kernel-driver --detach -D --force-feedback --deadzone 10% --trigger-as-zaxis --buttonmap tl=tr,tr=tl --axismap -trigger=trigger
~$ [ERROR] XboxdrvDaemon::run(): fatal exception: failed to get unique dbus name: Connection ":1.7" is not allowed to own the service "org.seul.Xboxdrv" due to security policies in the configuration file
is what i get.. Any ideas for this?


Edit:
Adding "--dbus disabled" helped me. Now it works perfectly, even with R2 and right trigger. Thank you very much!

Hi cars10,

Good! I updated my doc adding your update http://www.davidgis.fr/documentation/Da ... I_WineD3D/

Good to know that we have a game almost playable (80-90%). It was worth having a look on all these patches :)

Thanks

It works for me.

To run: "L" + "B"

To jump: while running ("L"+"B" pressed) .. when you want to jump keep "L" pressed, stop pressing "B"...and press "B" quickly!

Cars10,

In your settings you have to replace the default button to Jump by "B" button. This is what I did and it.

I cannot remap buttons to buttons on my controller. if i choose an action (like jump) and press buttons on the controller, nothing happens.
Also i replaced it with b on the keyboard, but that did not work either (for b on the controller).

How did you do it?

hm, thats exactly what i am doing. but it does not recognize the controller input, after clicking that i want to remap something nothing happens, i only can assign keyboard buttons.
Is there a way to tell the game that i am playing with a controller? feels like it is not recognized by the config, although everything else works with the controller...

That's a bit strange!

I am on Ubuntu Precise using xboxdrv 0.8.2 and all is fine now. Which version are you using? (xboxdrv -V)

I noticed that all releases are available at https://github.com/Grumbel/xboxdrv/releases

I will try to built 0.8.5 when I get back home. This way we should see if there is the same behavior.

cars10,

Apologies for the delay. I built xboxdrv 0.8.5 today and it works fine. As written at https://github.com/Grumbel/xboxdrv

I did

sudo modprobe uinput

after that as usual

sudo rmmod xpad

then I plug my controller

sudo /opt/xboxdrv/0.8.5/bin/xboxdrv --detach-kernel-driver --detach -D --force-feedback --deadzone 10% --trigger-as-zaxis --buttonmap tl=tr,tr=tl --axismap -trigger=trigger --dbus disabled

In-game I can jump, walk..No problem. I tested both my own patched wine and my wine not patched with (DLLs WineD3D). Both were OK.

I don't really understand what could be the real problem.
