Posted: Sat Aug 06 2005 11:41 MadTracker 2.5 with Wine ... |
 |
hi all,
I'm trying to run MT2.5 with Wine ... but, i have some problems ...
First, the installer didn't finish his work. Indeed, wine mt250_full.exe doesn't install anything ...
To resolve this, i have, firstly, unrar the mt250_full.exe file. I get a setup.exe file, with directories and other files.
Running wine setup.exe works perfectly. (weird because i suppose the auto extracting rar executable file (mt250_full.exe) does the same ... anyway)
Now, when i start wine mt2.exe, GUI is displayed on screen, but MadTracker is freezing with a "Scan for VST plugins" window, and i have no clue how to resolve this.
Anyone with a working MT2.5 with Wine around can help ?
Thanks in advance... |

personally I doubt it'll work very well with wine. I'm thinking about the interface here, mostly. alternative interfaces can be a pain to manage to work properly.
have you tried with all different os-settings in wine? like win98 and those too?
does mt2 use direct x? |

finally i tried to reinstall mt2.5 from a clean wine setup, and now it works perfectly ... GUI, Audio, Plugins management, etc ...
it's a bit slow (display mostly), but my box is not that fast too ...
My wine version is the following: 20050111 with default wine settings. |

Thanks for letting us know mryoung. I haven't had the chance to test MT 2.5 under WINE yet. So this is pretty good news.
