hi,
im trying to get carmageddon to work (http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.p ... on&iId=492)
i followed the instructions and when i try to get it to run i get the error "This .exe must have KEYBOARD.COK in the DATA folder"
the terminal also outputs
":~$ wine '/home/user/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/Games/Carmageddon/CARM95.EXE' -hires
fixme:spoolsv:serv_main (0 (nil))
fixme:mixer:ALSA_MixerInit No master control found on HDA ATI HDMI, disabling mixer"
im running ubuntu 8.04 and wine 0.9.59 (which according to the page should work)
all help appreciated
cheers

ok, well that was for more different than i was expecting
my username is not user - i changed it so that its not so easy to work out my first name.
anyway - i cd'd through, it changed my resolution, and then tried to play the intro movie. it didnt do very well at this, as it only managed to play about the first two seconds and then i think i had to wait for it to try to play through and then took me to the main menu
i then was able to play the game, and from what i can remember from playing it all those years ago, it worked fine and all the controls were okay. but it did freeze on me about 2 minutes in, at which point i ctrl-alt-backspaced out of it okay
it did look like there was some terminal output, which i shall try to grab now.
oh and the sound didnt work, but im gonna put this down to pulse audio. will change the settings on my next attempt, see what happens.
ps thanks for the quick reply
