hi, got 2 problems:

1- no sound at sof2 (using wine) 2- i wonder if there is a launcher for sof2 linux (maybe it will make sound work)

ps. i looked for others threads and none of the guys here solved the problem. (actually only one but i can't figure what he said)

First off, did you install it with the linux installer? Download it at http://www.liflg.org also, you may want to go ahead and install the latest version of wine. You can just add

deb http://wine.sourceforge.net/apt/ http://wine.sourceforge.net/ahttp://wine.sourceforge.net/apt/ binarypt/ binary/binary/

inside of synaptic, or /etc/apt/sources.list.

Then of course the reload, and update them.

I played the whole game through on Debian Sid with this method, the only problems with it was the occasional ugly texture on cars and such. Other than that, it worked quite fast (played it at 1600x1200 with all settings maxed) but then again, it's a pretty old game, and I have a 6800GT

I use the installer, but when I try to play this cant find my CD1 and is already mounted but still ask me for CD1

any help?

I had the same problem, it's been awhile, so forgive my memory. Download the no-cd crack from www.megagames.com, that's what I did. Then it works fine. There was also something I had to do to get the ultra gore mode to activate, but I can't recall what it was. Google should provide that answer.

How you can use the no-cd with loki linux installer???

#6

If you want to play online your might have some issues with Punkbuster. There is PB for linux but it is for native games and servers

#7

I just want to play single player, pls someone help me with this CD thing, keep ask me for the CD and is already mounted

#8

Just copy th sof2sp.exe over the one in the sof2 directory (or make a back up of it first, then do it) then just run it with wine.
