Quoting: EhvisOn a positive note, I got a survey last night. On Linux obviously. :D

Got it yesterday as well, strange timing as I upgraded my hardware and installed Mint 19 about 3 weeks ago already...

Guess I'm in the same boat as some others here. Recently tried C&C Generals through Wine after downloading it in Origin and there are no usable resolutions. I'd really like to play it again and I also have the C&C - The First Decade pack ready for the assets ^_^

Quoting: lucifertdarkWine Is No Excuse not to port your games/applications to Linux properly.

We're going in circles with this one. As already expressed by others most of the current Windows users will never switch to Linux if they have to lose access to their Windows only catalog of games and if they must spend 3 hours on Linux support websites to figure out how to install any of their game.

Once we get maximum playability for Windows games with an install process that is a simple double click away then we should have a lot more users. Then when the Linux playerbase starts to really represent a good fraction of all gamers, developers will have to start thinking about what they're doing.

I've been trying to make my brother in law switch for over 2 years without success, but now that he sees me starting to easily play games that he likes with Lutris (like SupCom Forged Alliance or Bad Company 2) he's beginning to seriously consider making at least a dual boot to try. If it's simple enough, the low barrier to learn how to use a new OS should outweight Windows 10 pissing him off.

I've managed to get Battlefield Bad Company 2 to run through Wine and it's working great, multiplayer through Steam working as well, I'm very happy to be able to play it again ^_^

Now I must work on getting Origin working for BF3 and BF4, need to be ready for BF5 :D

Thanks, I need to learn how to make this work !

Would you care to share which distro/drivers/software you're using to play it ?

Quoting: robiniseenbanaanDoes this fix the system freezes in bf1? About once every hour it crashes my system, often in the same areas when it's rendering parts of the map.

Are you able to play multiplayer in BF1 or is it restricted to single player only ?

Not totally related as I have AMD hardware (RX480), but I couldn't succeed in launching the game so far.

I have the latest stable MESA drivers (18.0 I guess) and thought Vulkan support was included in them but it seems it is not and that Vulkan needs to be added somehow on top of MESA. I have already looked for some info and added a Vulkan package to my distro (Mint) but there are probably some more steps as it still tells me I don't have supported drivers and crashes on launch :(

Quoting: Whitewolfe80Did you install the wine version via lutris or via command line it may explain why it cant see it

Guess it was via command line and quite some time ago as it's version 3.0. I'll try removing everything including Lutris and start again from scratch, might help.
