I want to see this game for myself so I plopped my money down for the Alpha on August 25th. Here's hoping it goes well :)

Quoting: JudasIscariotPeople keep mentioning setting the prefix to Windows 7 but I found that only Windows XP mode works for me ...
Same here, the game won't even start on windows 7-comp; but I'm running the winehq-devel and not the winehq-staging recommended in the post. What version of wine are you running?
I am running the multilib version of Wine (non-Staging) from the Arch repos officially but I took the PKGBUILD script from this package: https://www.archlinux.org/packages/multilib/x86_64/wine/ [External Link] modified it slightly and now I compile wine-git with it. This way I get a distro-perfect Wine package but I don't have to wait for the maintainer :D

As for the XP or 7 mode, I have tried about 5-6 times to run the game in Windows 7 mode and it would just hang whereas in 64-bit XP mode everything loads :)

Quoting: PeciskTried to run LOTRO recently under 1.9.13, it "detected" I have DirectX11 and offered to run it instead. Loading screen worked, but everything went black after that.
Disable d3d11.dll in the Wine config screen and the game should fall back to DX9 or DX10 mode :)

Quoting: InverseTelecineDoes anyone know if the version of Alladin is a PC port of the Sega Genesis title? I mean, was it at the time of the original release; I know GOG can't sell new Genesis ports (how cool would that be! :D )

I know the SNES and Genesis games were basically two totally different games, and I know this isn't a port of the SNES version because I played that one and he never carries a sword in it. In the screenshots he's carrying a sword, which makes me think maybe it's was a port of the Genesis version.

I was a SNES kid and the television advertisements for the Genesis versions used to taunt me, because it looked better than the SNES game! Ah, the old console wars. Good times! For some reason they never felt repulsive and horrible like modern console wars.
People have been mentioning that since Aladdin holds a sword in the PC version it must be the Genesis version that has been ported to the PC and that is the version that we have :)
