not_a_pc -> HARPOON on LINUX (1/10/2009 10:32:02 AM)

I enjoyed HARPOON CLASSIC back when I was A PC [Win-95] era

So I have downloaded HARPOON-3-GOUGE-DEMO onto UBUNTU 8.10 into WINE 1.0.1 environment [just to see if it works]

I am asking if anyone else in forum has tried this and encountered/solved any problems [&:]

Whether I am successful or not: I will write up a report in www.winehq.org

well, the Harpoon: Commander's Edition demo can be convinced to run with WINE's help fwiw.  There are some graphical anomolies but otherwise it seems to run half decently.

YES seems OK [so far]

I have problems with my sound [from motherboard] but this will be resolved with ALSA complient card

Mouse is very 'twitchy' - I will look at this if it becomes too annoying, I can use KEYBOARD.

I DO NOT GET [PICTURES] of units H3 freeze/crashes, but Mission Sucessful Grahic is GOOD [also 'wreckage']



not_a_pc -> RE: HARPOON on LINUX (1/26/2009 7:04:43 AM)

I have found that:

FORMATION EDITOR --> PREFERENCES and STAFF MESSAGE 'pops-up' during set

OR

VIDEO CLIP playing [weapon/aircraft launch etc] and STAFF MESSAGE

both
==> FREEZE/CRASH big time [lucky I'ave an escape key]
will try [PAUSE game] and SET VIDEO OFF permanently
