Hey,
i've been trying to get return to castle wolfenstein to work, i copied
Code: Select all
autoexec.cfg mp_pak0.pk3 mp_pak2.pk3 rtcwkey sp_pak2.pk3
hunkusage.dat mp_pak1.pk3 pak0.pk3 sp_pak1.pk3 wolfconfig_mp.cfg
from my windows install (accualy i installed it with winex, took the files off the fake C:\ put them in ~/.wolf/main) now when i type
to run rtcw, i get a garbled looking thing, that i can make windowed with ctrl + enter, and i can pull the console down and manually type commands. i tried changing the resolutin to no avail,
any advice for a linux noob trying to get RTCW to work in Gentoo???
Thanks.

Why are you using winex?

You dont need to use wine/x for this game.
emerge rtcw
then just copy the required pak files over as it tells you to do when its done installing

nononon
i was only using wine to get the pak files, cuz i looked all over the CD, and there were no pak files
like when i emerge rtcw
it said "just copy ^files listed above^ to ~/.wolf/main/
so i have no windows drive, so i installed it using wine, but thats it, im running it by typing wolf, not threw wine, i mean i already deleted the wine install,
i just did that ot get the pak files...

ok now this is the weirdest thing i ever saw
i was fooling with it after playing Urban Terror (Quake 3 mod)
when the map on UT was over, i quit, and did my thing, watched conan
whatever, i came back to fool with RtCW, and when i run it....
I see the end of the map stats from my UT game,
and everyone saying gg and all that jazz....
what does that mean? and i wasent running it threw wine,
i ran it by typing
'wolf; in console, which is what the emerge rtcw told me to do

Ok... sorry, i misunderstood.
On my box i put the pak files into
/opt/rtcw/main
not in ~/.wolf/main
and it plays fine
maybe thats whats wrong?

let me guess 2 things
you have an nvidia card??
it will also show the last opengl app that ran fullscreen
try running an opengl screensaver then doing it
mine does this too
it even used to show my last x screen after a reboot too which was strange

Sys_Error: Couldn't load default.cfg - I am missing essential files - verify your installation?
When I just try wolf.
Thats all the .pk3 files I could find on the cd, I couldn't find default.cfg on it, where do I find that? Or am I just doing something wrong?
Thanx,
Stan

Ok, there was a cd2, I saw cd1 on the cd I had and had to go find cd2. From now on my cd1 will live in the case with cd2. And the world was at peace once again.
