--- Comment #3 from cruiseoveride cruiseoveride@gmail.com 2008-08-24 00:13:03 --- Alright, fresh WINEPREFIX
Skipped GameSpy and DirectX installer. At the end of install "Wine Gecko Installer" asked to install, and i said Yes, eventually just showed a white screen with a circle on the top left, i had to close it manually, Console output -> http://pastebin.com/f8afffe2
Installed v1.1 update.
Tried to run the game: And got a message saying "Protection system, Application Installed sucessfully, Reboot the computer to complete installation, Continue?" So i said "yes". Then the wine desktop closed. Here is the output -> http://pastebin.com/f5e07178c
Ran the game again and got the same message.
Installed No-DVD fixed exe and then the game launches. Here is the output -> http://pastebin.com/f4e159e5b
This time (i'm guessing because of the v1.1 update) I get into the game menu, the cars show up as just grey objects. Attached a screenshot as example.
As well as there is some broken rendering in game, half the car is rendered, here is output of running the game , and then exiting cleanly -> http://pastebin.com/f369a2b3c
The blank screen was something i had on the 1.0 game, others have had it too, if you have a look at the appdb. But with the v1.1 update it seems to have gone.
