Dark Souls II - SotFS in Wine?
robvv Jun 9, 2017
Hi all,

Having just received this game as part of the latest Humble Bundle, I'd like to try and play it in Wine.

Using wine-staging 2.9 I've managed to get the game to start, but as soon as I start a new game and press 'A' on the brightness selection screen the game crashes with an 'R6025' error.

Has anyone managed to get the game beyond this point and, if so, could they please detail their wine configuration?

Cheers!

Thanks for the reply.

I have a nvidia card with binary blob installed. Do I need to install directX through winetricks or should I just leave the install vanilla?

Got it working now! I noticed that you had a version of wine with Gallium 9, so I found an equivalent version for my openSUSE install and now the game fires up perfectly.

Many thanks for your help with this.
