Wine and Sacred Dedicated Server


Recommended Posts

Not sure if anyone in these forums have played this game, but the developers haven't made a dedicated server for linux, just windows. I've got wine all setup and working, however when I try to run the server it tells me it requires Windows 2000/XP or greater. I've set wine to emulate 2k, and then xp and it didn't work either way. Just wondering if anyone here has any experience with something like this and if they have a work around.

If you can't get wine to work, I have heard good things about wineX (not free) and games.

Unfortunately, not every game manufacturer supports Linux (though there are some CDs out now that have Windows and Linux versions on them).

The best option for those who just have to have the latest games is to dual-boot your PC with Windows and Linux...

yea, I remember when WineX was free :\ Makes me want to just keep trying Wine.

Also, I don't want to play the game, I just want to run the dedicated server. I don't know why companies wouldn't make a port of that for release. Poor planning on their part.
