Supreme Commander Forum

It installs in a basic bottle , but since it fails to run and the gpgnet stuff fails to run it makes it hard to update it.

However, using a current copy from a Windows XP box and adding to windows\system32\:

d3ds9_31.dll
faultrep.dll
X3DAudio1_1.dll
userenv.dll (also you need to use winecfg and enabled it in the Library section, since by default it is disabled)
winsta.dll

Then I can do a Program->Run of the SupremeCommader.exe and it kicks back:

Please verify video hardware meets minimum specifications. Please ensure system has current video drivers.

Then I have to wander over to another machine, ssh into my Mac and kill off CrossOver application.

So, looks like it wants some DirectX 9c feature that isn't accessible in wine/CrossOver. It has no effect if you step through the pain of installing a complete DirectX 9c.

Figured since no one has commended on this game. That I'd throw out a bone.

where did u get the dlls from??

I'd really like to get this to run. I'll have to see what I can do to figure out why it doesn't work. I even tried the demo (figuring it would be less demanding), but it still just self-terminates (I'm using Crossover Games).

It does work in crossover games 7 (linux) then you follow the instructions listed on winehq, I have it running just need to patch it some more to fix the audio de-syncing issue. WineHQ setup

But change the reg setting HKCU/Software/Wine/Direct3D/OffscreenRenderingMode and set it to fbo

Change it to this instead HKEY_CURRENT_USER/Software/Wine/AppDefaults/SupremeCommander.exe/Direct3D/OffscreenRenderingMode and set it to fbo

Hope that help
