Hey guys,

I'm running ubuntu 10.04 on wine 1.2-rc3 on a Asus G73JH Laptop. Ive gotten steam and l4d2 to install and I can run both, but while in game with l4d2, it runs okay at certain points but then studders/slows down when the action ramps up. Is there anything I can do to improve the performance so its more playable? Thanks for the help.

Maybe you can put you game in low quality mode ?

Force the game to run in DX 8 or lower in the luanch options , i did this with CSS and it boosted my fps to about 150-200

-dxlevel 81

or use 80 or 70

I've a question (sorry to the modos if I can't ask it here, but do you play CSS with steam ? Personnaly I can't use steam since the big update.. So I can't play any of my Steam game :/

Okay, I tried setting the -dxlevel 81, 80, 70 and none of those settings seemed to may any improvements. Any other ideas?
