My sentiments exactly! It is a tribute to the wine developers that these 20 year old games run as well (or better) on linux and modern hardware than on the ancient PC's and MS-Windows versions they were designed for. One recommendation - with each game try wine-6 first (./wine_default.sh), if anything is not quite right use wine-7 (./wine_experimental.sh). That should be sufficient to run all games; use the oldest wine version that works. If there's still a problem go to winehq.org and try wine-8 (winehq-stable). (You can also run most of the included game exe's on Windows 10, emulating the appropriate old Windows version. If using Windows, the linux install script serves as handy documentation for the install, showing which patches to apply, what directories to copy, what settings to change, etc.) |
