[SOLVED] Play on Linux

So... now that I have fixed the issue with my screen I need to find out how to run my game

The game is Swarm Assault by MKing

If I set "i915.modeset=0" in the GRUB config file my PC thinks it's a laptop and I get weird screen resolutions but my game works fine. I then need to set "i915.modeset=1", restart, then reset my resolution for things to look normal again (all very time consuming).

If I try and run the game with "i915.modeset=1", PlayOnLinux just crashes.

The question is "Is there a way I can set PlayOnLinux to set "i915.modeset=0" whilst I play the game then set it back to "i915.modeset=1" when I finish?

Or is there another way around this?

Yeah I played around with some WINE settings to do with resolution but nothing worked.

Hi Muz,

Btw,

did you install the package "mono-complete" ??.

It gives you "Net framework" support under Linux.

Hi Swarfendor437,

Tried the tweak, no difference.

Hi Wolfman,

Yeah had a bit of a look, tried a couple of things, no good.

I might just have to buy a new video card I guess

Mono-complete already installed....

You posted right after me so to get your attention I posted my question again.

LOL, yeah I saw it so I answered

Hi Muz,

another suggestion is to change the download location of your system sources and see if that helps, update your system again once you have changed the download location.

I might just close this and not worry about it, I need to move on, find a new game or something LOL

Hi Muz,

I can find nothing about the game for Linux anywhere on the net!!.

I think you are right, stop scratching your head and find another game

I purchased a new system with a decent video card, my game now runs perfectly!
