Hi,
I'm searching to make Space Pirates and Zombies works on Linux but it's not so easy.
First, there is a known gamma bug (the screen goes completly black when the game is launched), which can be fixed by a script like this one :

sleep 3 && xgamma -gamma 1.0 &
wine SpazGame.exe
sleep 1
xgamma -gamma 1.0


But on Steam, launching it with a gamma-correction script doesn't always seem to work either. I think steam adds a few seconds to its launch time or something.

However, I just use a secondary script that does the gamma correction only without launching spaz, and I can see fine if I call it after starting spaz up.
But it's really boring to do that always when I want to play, can you help me with this one pls?

(Another bug is the framerate going down to nothing once the main menu hits. But it seems that doesn't affect everybody).

Is it a bash script ?

Yes it is

There is a demo to try it with steam right there : http://store.steampowered.com/app/107200/

- Add sleep 10 at the begining of the script
- Place it in .PlayOnLinux/configurations folder
- chmod +x
- Type in PlayOnLinux console : POL_Config_Write PRE_RUNNING '$POL_USER_ROOT/configurations/script name'

Start playonlinux from a terminal, and run your program. Tell me if there are some errors

But it says that PoL can't access to internet =s

EDIT: Nvm, it was a wifi mistake!

And many thanks!
