So I’m trying to get SimCity 4 to run in Linux, and the easy answer is to use wine. Well, I did something stupid; I tried to change the default location of the C drive in wine. Now, it has all kinds of issues. Does anyone know what the default location is so that I can go back to that?
If I’m not mistaken it’s ~/.wine/drive_c. It’s likely than an app named “winecfg” came bundled with your package, though, so you might want to try to use that to change the drive’s location.
I was wondering why an alcohol discussion would be here… darn.
(I guess this shows what a non-computer dork I am, lol.)
It just shows what a drunkard you are.
(I thought the same thing too >.>)
Glad I’m not the only one that wanted alcohol after seeing that.
Yeah, I used winecfg to change it in the first place. This worked, so thanks for the help.
Now, to get drunk.
Okay, new question; it’s working properly and all (was able to run UT2004 pretty well), but now I’m trying to install Starcraft and it keeps asking for the disc. I could no-cd crack it, but I have no idea where the hell wine installs programs to in the file system. Could someone help me find that?
That depends on your configuration; however, you can use locate to search your system for the game. Run “updatedb; locate “Starcraft.exe”” and it should tell you where it is.
Be warned, though: wine fails at running nocd cracks from time to time, so even if it runs Starcraft flawlessly it might fail to initiate the cracked exe. Good luck, though =/
I love you Kor. I miss you
(and yeah lol i tot it was alcohol)
