OMG! Good Old Games has the amazingStar Wars Galactic Battlegrounds available for a mere £3.99. That was the game which introduced me & my wife to collaborative gameplay, so I was incredibly excited to see it available again.
This is a brief guide to getting the game working on Linux – including multiplayer and widescreen.
I’m using Ubuntu 14.04 – but the steps should be broadly similar on any distro.
John deere 48c convertible deck manual. Install the latest version of WINE.
Install the game as normal, the installer will probably crash at the end, ignore it. You can now run the basic version of SWGB without any fuss.
I found that on quitting the game, my desktop wouldn’t always revert back to to the correct resolution. To solve this, run SWGB in a Virtual Desktop :
The virtual desktop will expand and shrink depending on the resolution of the game.
I did find that running the virtual desktop at a lower resolution occasionally gave graphical glitches like this :
A quick restart fixed it.

Multiplayer
To get multiplayer working, I followed this advice and installed DirectPlay from Microsoft (you can ignore the stuff about disabling your network adapter).
Drama korea dr stranger sub indo. On restarting the game, you should now be able to play across a LAN. Our two laptops communicated quite happily over WiFi.
Remember, Microsoft Zone doesn’t exist any more – so you’ll either have to play with people on a LAN, or ask for their external IP address. I’ve no idea which ports need forwarding.
Widescreen Patch
This game was originally designed for a 4:3 screen. If you’ve got a laptop or modern monitor, you’ll probably want to make use of all that extra space.
There is a Wide Screen Patch available. Follow the instructions in the .zip file to apply the patch. Tell the game options that you want to play at 1280*1024 – this will switch it to widescreen.
I didn’t notice any graphical glitches – but this game is over a decade old, so the graphics are quite low resolution.
One thing to note, if you’re using the Virtual Desktop, you may find the game doesn’t take over the whole screen – leaving you unable to access the lower portions.

In which case, I recommend running without the Virtual Desktop.

It’s still just as good as I remembered! The music is epic, the voice acting is adequate, and the game mechanics are perfectly tuned.
Everything works well on Linux – even if it does take just a little bit of fiddling to get it right. Kodi for windows xp 32 bit.
Totally worth a go for four quid. Buy it on GOG.com.

posted 06-06-13 05:30 PM EDT (US) 1 / 2 I dont know why these sort of questions keep being ignored. I downloaded a patch I found around for playing in higher resolutions and it seems not to be working. So I would also like to know if someone knows where can one find a working patch, or how to make the aokwide_swgb patch to work. (__-___Lord*Bane___-__) <<...*¨88¨*...>> |
posted 07-19-13 11:56 PM EDT (US) 2 / 2 It is surprising how there is so much support for AoE2, but this game seems to be shoved in the corner. Not to mention its steep price now. Just spent $70 on it! I have scavenged the internet and the most functional patch seems to be here. The user pokeman7452 provided a few pre-patched bundles for the following resolutions: 1280x720 1280x768 1280x800 1600x900 1920x1080 To install them, put the .exe in your Game directory, and then the two .drs files in GameData. The resolution does work after you switch between a lower setting and back to the highest. The only problem is that the game crashes when trying to play the campaign. Online play seems to have out of sync issues as well while on GameRanger. [This message has been edited by bluehailex (edited 07-19-2013 @ 11:56 PM).] |
