Ok last post on this topic as I've more or less got it sorted out now with one exception.
The game is dark as hell. The in-game gamma slider doesn't seem to work. I've edited the gamma value in the ini but it won't seem to go above 20. Am I not understanding how that works? (using the .ini file given in the first post with the only change being my resolution.) I am on a Linux Mint 18 Cinnamon with Wine 1.8.5. | ||

Problem: No text appearing.
I scrolled back about 6 pages and didn't see anyone else with this issue. Apologies if it's addressed on a page I haven't read. Firstly, I copied a working installation from windows partition across to Elementary OS with a newly installed Wine. The program runs, but there is no text. I can get no further than the login screen. I reinstalled Ubuntu (needed to anyway) and tried the same approach. I got the same problem. Finally, I reinstalled from disk - patched to v43 and ... the same problem! Anyone else had this issue? wine is reporting `unsupported vertex format PIPE_FORMAT_B4G4R4A4_UNORM`. Is that a red herring? | ||

Default version of wine in Ubuntu repos is too old. I upgraded to latest and the text appears! https://wiki.winehq.org/Ubuntu

Use xrandr to list your outputs: $ xrandr Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 1024 x 768, maximum 8192 x 8192 DVI-0 connected 1024x768+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 304mm x 228mm In this example the output is DVI-0, so to change the brightness: xrandr --output DVI-0 --brightness 2 To change the gamma: xrandr --output DVI-0 --gamma 2:2:1 Regards, Mg

Some things that help playing under ubuntu that I forgot to mention.
Drop the bar to the bottom then hide it. gsettings set com.canonical.Unity.Launcher launcher-position Bottom gsettings set org.compiz.unityshell:/org/compiz/profiles/unity/plugins/unityshell/ launcher-hide-mode 1 If you play on a 24" monitor its perfect. to undo when your done playing if you need to. gsettings set org.compiz.unityshell:/org/compiz/profiles/unity/plugins/unityshell/ launcher-hide-mode 0 and gsettings set com.canonical.Unity.Launcher launcher-position Left

Music on wine
Hey!
Thanks for the great guide. Got everything up an working. If someone else experiences invisible character models this can be fixed in the eqclient.ini by setting vertexshaders = false. Further, are anyone getting the music to work? I have all sound effects, but no music. Can this be because pulseaudio has troubles with the midi files? | ||

I have Titanium installed and have modified the necessary files from the website and have removed the needed ones as well. I am just lost on how to make a link do run the game. I try to make an icon for the .bat file that would normally be used in Windows and with that I get an error and when trying to make an icon with the eqgame.exe I get an error message that says run Everquest.exe. What I am missing in order to get this to work please?
I am running the latest version of Zorin OS if it makes a difference. | ||

[Keyboard layout problem]
Hello everyone,
thanks to this guide I manage to play Project1999 on wine (Lubuntu), thanks alot! There is one main problem that remains. I'm having difficulties with the keyboard layout. I'm an AZERTY player. If I don't do anything when I fire up EQ through wine I have many dead keys, and one of the most important is the / (slash). One fix I found is to switch my Lubuntu keyboard layout to QWERTY when launching EQ. This gives me the opportunity to play in EQ with the AZERTY layout (yes yes! AZERTY layout in EQ, QWERTY layout in Lubuntu) and have the / key available. However, some keys are not at the good place such as the 'm' and numbers 4, 6, 8 are dead keys, by that I mean that I cannot produce any number 4, 6, 8, which is quite problematic. As a reference of my problem, while searching the forum I found two people having the same problem : https://www.project1999.com/forums/s...ad.php?t=15100 I tried to download an AZERTY keyboard.txt version of EQ but it did not fix anything. If someone has a fix or an idea, I'd be glad to hear it. The good side of this story is that I can play on Project1999 on my only and loving operating system almost perfectly even with this problem. Thanks again to the developers and the community for this great work! | ||
