I can't run DOD:S using OpenSuse 10.3, steam installs just fine, but when I double click to play the game, the loading box opens, then the game opens ever so briefly (long enough to see the splash screen), before it crashes hard and disappears!

Day of defeat source how to#

Any help in getting this system to render Source games how it once did will probably give me some clues on how to fix SOurce on my other systems. They always behaved in SOurce how the above system now behaves. I haven't tried Steam again yet on the system with the FX5800.Īs for the other systems, they always defaulted to Directx 6 in Source Games no matter what version of Fedora or WINE I used. The dxlevel 70 dxlevel 80 and dxlevel 81 don't improve anything. Now the Graphics are slow and scorched in all my Source Games and the Directx Level defaults to Directx 6.

Day of defeat source drivers#

I've recently formatted and installed Fedora 8 on the system that previously worked with the GeForce 4 and installed livna's kmod-nvidia-96xx drivers (I think I used this version before). All my systems are updated to Fedora 8 now with WINE 0.9.58 RPM version.īack in the Fedora 6 day, I succeeded at getting the system with the FX5800 and one of the systems with a GeForce 4 Ti to render in Directx 8.1 with the Graphics normally at a reasonably good framerate too in Day of Defeat: Source. THE -dxlevel command line options don't repair the Scorched and slow Graphics. The Video cards I've used are a GeForce 2 MX 400, 3 GeForce 4 Ti 4200 cards, and a GeForce FX 5800 ultra card. I've used Fedora 6, 7, 8, and only one of them has dependably rendered graphics in the Appropriate Directx setting.

I'm too lazy right now to install Steam from scratch, which might give a more valid test result for DirectX 9.įor over a year I've been trying to get SOURCE Games to consistently render in the appropriate Directx Level on many different Machines.

Day of defeat source windows#

My Windows installation also shows graphics bugs under DirectX 9 after playing around with the -dxlevel81 option. This may, however, be partly the fault of Valve: When trying to run the game under DirectX 9 (game option -dxlevel9), however, the window goes black as soon as I try to proceed to the server selection. On map Avalance, marketplace, only me logged in to the server: Performance is acceptable at about 2/3 the FPS I get in Windows XP. The game runs quite well in DirectX 8.1 (game option -dxlevel81) window mode, only the fonts in server selection and console are a bit scrambled (but still readable). Just gave it a quick re-try under Wine 1.1.24. So if the steam window is still on your screen when you start your game, simply X out of it instead of trying to minimize it. When I try to lower the steam window,Įverything freezes and I must reboot the PC, the keyboard is notĪ: One of the known bugs with steam is that it always is on top and cannot be minimized, or else the system crashes. But once dod is launched, steam stays inįocus and obstruct the screen. Q: It seems that dod source works once steam as been installed as it is

Known to run well on all versions after and including 0.9.23.

Linux headers (gentoo users) or kernel version (everyone else) >=2.6.17.

So I'd hold off on using the new compiler.

Currently the newest gcc 4.2 snapshot makes the game randomly crash.

GCC 4.1.1 (latest stable, slightly larger binaries than 3.4.6 but faster nominally).

If you are compiling this from source (like me a gentoo user) I've tested out a bunch of things and recommend the following versions to compile wine:.

For all 16:10 aspect ratio to show up in game, include the following in your nf:.

For all 4:3 aspect ratios to show up in game, include the following in your nf:.

Day of Defeat: Source only plays at 32-bit (Depth 24)

For both of the following make sure these are under the Depth 24.

Xorg-x11 >=7.0 (anything less gets a performance hit for some reason (anyone else experience this?).

intel, sis, via, etc.gotten this to work?)

Day of defeat source driver#

Graphics driver for Nvidia users >=, ATI users >=8.29.6 (just out of curiousity has anyone with any other graphics card i.e.

If you exerience weird sound issues using emulation instead of hardware.

Also make sure to use the oss driver not the alsa driver.

Alsa-drivers (including all librarys and utils) >=1.0.13 (gets rid of weird sounds for me).

So some things I've noticed that you need to get Day of Defeat to run better are: If you would like Day of Defeat: Source to get more attention please vote for it!
