Oddworld: Abe's Exoddus Tips

Run in windowed mode - COG 8.0 & 7.2.2 / linux

This game installs correctly into it's own bottle using the win98
bottle profile.

Do not install the directx distribution contained on the CD!
It is not needed
and will/may only break things.

This game requires one native fullscreen resolution - 640x480. If you have a
widescreen or 16:9/10 display type or otherwise cannot use this fullscreen
4:3 aspect resolution, you will have to run crossover/wine in windowed mode
(Emulate a virtual desktop) for the game to start/run.

To do this, use cxsetup to configure the bottle, using winecfg to configure
crossover/wine to run in windowed mode ('Emulate a virtual desktop');


0. Start  cxsetup

1. Highlight the bottle you installed the game into

2. Click on 'Configure' => 'Control Panel' => 'winecfg' -- the Wine Configuration GUI will appear





3. Now click on 'Graphics' tab => tick  'Emulate a virtual desktop'





4. After enabling virtual desktop mode, you will see 'Desktop size' element becomes active => change this to 640 x 480





5. Click on 'Apply' => 'Ok' => 'Ok"
6. Exit  cxsetup
