Hello, I recently install Windows Steam in PlayOnLinux and I downloaded Bioshock (from my account, obvious) and when I start the game all works OK, but if I start new campaing, the game show the scene when you're in the airplane and show the logo "BIOSHOCK", after this, the game not continue anymore. I hope that can help me.

Regards.

PD: If not understand me, I can explain again.

Are you able to run any other games in PlayOnLinux?

Sounds like you might have some problems because of Direct X.

Did you install the video drivers for your computer?
Did you install the 32-bit libraries for your distro?

My drivers are installed, and what do you mean with 32-bit libraries?, DirectX libraries?

If you are using a 64-bit operating system, you need to install 32-bit libraries for it because most games require them to play.
Unfortunately those aren't automatically installed.

In Ubuntu they are called ia32-libs or multiarch
In Mint you have to install ia32-libs in the package manager.

What distro are you using?
