GTA San Andreas in Wine

English Games
1

I’m running openSUSE 13.1 and I installed GTA San Andreas from the retail DVD. I’ve already done winetricks d3dx9, so what would I have to do to make it playable? The main menu doesn’t show up (black screen) and the menu sounds play but the game won’t start. This is the error report in Wine:

You probably want to start here:

http://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?iAppId=2599

And after that, maybe ask on the WineHQ forums for assistance. :slight_smile:

This game used to work quite well with various WINE versions earlier, and without having to use any extra windows libs (the winetrick d3dx9 installation you referred to); I had a look at the link Henderson provided and it seems like the 2nd edition of the game may be more problematic, as your game comes on a DVD, mine is on a cd, I thought that your problem may be related to that?

There might still be a solution provided somewhere on that page for the second edition also though, look around if this is the version you have.

There is also the possibility to try PlayOnLinux, the game is in their games DB. PlayOnLinux will try set up the most suited environment for the game, configuration, wine version etc.
But again, check whether PlayOnLinux supports the second edition if this applies to you.

I’m agree with you :slight_smile:
