Elder Scrolls: Morrowind

English Games
#1

Hey guys, I have had this game work on Fedora before, and the issue was with sound. I install it on OpenSUSE, and everything is fine until I come to the official screen. It just shows the background. I ran morrowind in the terminal, and this is the output i get when i get to the title screen.

I had to shorten the code, because in the terminal, it never ends. It spits out all of these random numbers.
I think it has something to do with Audio?

Hello LinXNut,

First of all, I don’t have any experience running Elder Scrolls: Morrowind under wine.
So some suggestion may be useless.

Could you tell use which version of openSUSE and wine you run?

One thing you could try is to make sure desktop effects are disabled.

Also have a look here: WineHQ - The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind
There might be something useful about running Elder Scrolls.

Best of luck!:wink:

You could also try using playonlinux even though I haven’t used it before.
