Hi Ivan, Yesterday I read your posts on the list saying that you're able to get HL2 to run with some patches.
The only patch that I'm using outside wine-cvs is here: http://www.winehq.org/hypermail/wine-patches/2005/03/0504.html
It's necessary to let you type the Steam password and download HL2 over the web (since MSI still doesn't work).
That's great--I can't wait to see it actually be playable. :)
You'd have to wait a bit more, currently it's way too slow (I really mean this...). I'll post some screenshots on appdb when it becomes playable with cvs.
Have you tried setting the heapsize to something a bit larger? Sometimes that can help.
You might want to try: directxwine.sf.net
I'll see if there's anything new there, update my CVS, and give it a go... Right now I've got HL2 on my account already; I tried it and it hangs, but anyway, thanks a lot. I'm sure the wait will be worth it in the long run.
