Graphics Error
Don't know if this problem has been posted before, but whenever I try to start the game, and go onto the track I get a HUGE graphical environment error.

I'm running on Ubuntu 10.04, and only experienced it on Ubuntu so far.

Any fixes regarding this problem are thankful!


Thanks in advance,

super wok
What version of WINE are you running it in? Do you have proprietary drivers for your graphics card installed?
Wine 1.0 (was the only version available)
Already checked for drivers and they are up-to-date
Wine 1.0 is aaancient and it's likely to have problems with LFS. You can update to at least Wine 1.2 by adding "ppa:ubuntu-wine/ppa" repository to the software center. And once again, are you using proprietary or open-source drivers for your graphics card? What model/make is you graphics cars?

ATI Radeon HD5700 series (dont know exact)
Pretty sure the drivers arent open-source.
Will try that once I get my max partition size increased


Thanks for help.

** Best answer **
Download the latest wine by going into Terminal and typing:

sudo apt-get install wine

And make sure you disable Haze Effect too, as it conflicts with wine.
Thanks Neo, will try that out

Always helpful for me haha

Edit:
Now it keeps crashing with the following error:
The program LFS.exe has encountered a serious problem and needs to close.
I'll restart and if it doesn't work afterwards then I will post here again.
Edit2:
Works after restart and the Haze effect was indeed the problem
Thanks for the help everybody

/request close
