Hi all,
Here's a script to run MotoRacer from GoG. The main issue with this early 3D game is that it requires a 16bpp display (65536 colors), a setup that is now uncommon. Under X, you need to restart the server to change bpp, but the script below can also use Xephyr to emulate a 16bpp display (with software rendering, but that should not be an issue with a modern CPU). Enjoy! https://raw.github.com/petchema/playonlinux/dev/motoracer-gog #!/bin/bash # Date : (2012-03-01 20-38) # Last revision : (2012-03-11 18-55) # Wine version used : 1.3.23 # Distribution used to test : Debian Sid (Unstable) # Author : Pierre Etchemaite petchema@concept-micro.com # Script licence : GPL v.2 # Program licence : Retail # Depend : # Tested with install archives: # setup_moto_racer.exe 343243943 "39ffda45ac7504064cb9bd8ca193861e" # 1.2.3 => game crash # 1.4 => look for OpenGL even if -NoD3D is specified # that's a problem when using Xephyr [ -z "$PLAYONLINUX" ] && exit 0 source "$PLAYONLINUX/lib/sources" PREFIX="MotoRacer_gog" WORKING_WINE_VERSION="1.3.23" INSTALLBIN="setup_moto_racer.exe" TITLE="Moto Racer (GoG release)" URL="http://www.gog.com/en/gamecard/moto_racer" SHORTCUT_NAME="Moto Racer" POL_SetupWindow_Init POL_Debug_Init # 4.0.15 needed for complex POL_Shortcut_InsertBeforeWine POL_RequiredVersion "4.0.15" POL_SetupWindow_presentation "$TITLE" "Delphine Software / Anuman Interactive" "$URL" "Pierre Etchemaite" "$PREFIX" POL_SetupWindow_question "$(eval_gettext 'Do you want to download $TITLE from GOG.com?')"
