Arma 3 won't start in wine

Post by twaee »

I have installed the game "Arma 3" but it won't start when I launch it. The blue wine screen pops up for a few seconds then quits out. The game says it requires Directx 10 but I didn't think that would be a problem because I have played games that required Directx 10 before and they have run smoothly. I have run it in the terminal and this is what I have received back:

It seems like something is wrong with the dll library, but I don't know how to fix that.

If you could tell me how to fix it (or if it can't be fixed) that would be wonderful.

Ok, I am going to keep Linux, but I will be partially switching to Windows (much as i hate windows) to be able to play games that I can't play on wine.
