Quoting: mylkadoes this game use vulkan? in the preferences file is this line
<value name="UseVulkan" type="integer">1</value>
It requires knowing the command for activating tester permissions. I wouldn't bother though, as it's quite unstable when it's active.
do you have this command? i would like to try vulkan in this game

and wanted to try another API, but its still the same
So it's not Vulkan, specific. Ok then, that's curious. I had the same problem when in Sapienza. It must be due to something in the recent dev releases of Mesa 18.2
i have this bug with opengl, thats why i wanted to try vulkan. it is not the API
also i have the problem since i tried the game the first time, so it is not mesa 18.2
maybe it is a bug with the amd r9 series

Quoting: mylkaim hoping for more sega linux games this year. shenmue und yakuza would be awesome

Quoting: 14I'm not very much into sim games. I only need to play one every couple of years to satisfy my itch, even though I really liked Theme Hospital and Sim City 2000 when I was a kid. This Two Point Hospital trailer is pretty convincing that the itch is back. :)
how about sim tower?

this is kinda a remake. its for linux, even if its not listed [External Link]
Looks kinda cool... maybe. Thanks for pointing it out.
Dont do it. Highrise has broken Linux support, has done for a long time.
if it doesnt work you can claim a refund. i did this once. a few days later i had my money back

Kalypso Media buy the rights to the Commandos IP, a new game is coming plus updates to older titles

Quoting: mylkai read that, but does it still work on modern PC? and i think i cant buy it anywhere. an updated steam version would be nice
Probably true. I don't see why it shouldn't work any more. Got Railroad Tycoon II running lately again as well. It may be more tricky but should be possible. Afair it uses SDL too. The usual problems are required glib compat lib and probably some X11 compat lib nowadays.

I tried this last in 2008 and wrote this Wiki entry for linuxgaming.de

…also RuneSoft still exists. Mayhap they have some patch somewhere hidden :)
Edith says: Well it still lists Linux but only a patch for OSX Lion: http://www.rune-soft.com/Games/Released/Game-239/game=Robin_Hood_The_Legend_of_Sherwood-13 [External Link]
desperados also worked on win7 and above, but the performance was crap and there are old games, that just dont work on modern OS.
even if it works, i think i couldnt buy it anymore and i dont think there are resolutions for 1920x1080, so the game needs a patch.

und wie du selbst schreibst
"Das Spiel selbst ist leider, wie zahlreichen Berichten aus dem Netz zu entnehmen, ziemlich schlecht portiert. Viele Fehler werfen einen immer wieder auf den Desktop zurück. Ärgerlich, wenn die Fehler dabei auch in die Speicherstände geschrieben wurden und das Spiel nach dem Neustart sofort wieder stirbt."

Robin Hood: The Legend of Sherwood landed on Linux before Linux Gaming was a thing ;)

I've the CD-ROM sitting on my shelf.
