Planetside on Wine?

Post by ajianzzzzz »

Real Noob here. Trying to play Planetside. Using Wine have managed to load launcher but nothing happens at all.
I'm not sure how I managed to install either of the programs. I used the terminal window and luckily when I got the command wrong, it corrected me. Perfect, my kind of computing.
Now I have exhausted my limited brain power and need a kind, tolerant, patient, advisor to thrill me with the virtues of this wonderful new OPEN SOURCE tool.
This is real beginner stuff so please help. Like everyone I have limited reading time and could really use a step up.
Thanks in advance.

Run it from a terminal and post whatever messages appear.

I wish I could. The problem is that the game loads great. But once you try to enter the world everything is numbers and blocks of shading. I can just see the continents to choose from but that's it. I can't click or access. There are no errors screens or information. I'm sure I need to tweak something but I don't know haow to get the information.
Thanks for your reply. Can you make any suggestions on tweaking or error finding?
Thanks very much for your time.
