Ok trying to use a downloaded TIE have no clue how to add it to the gui so just going to run it maunaly but how?

think the command would be

./cxinstaller --tiefile=~/cxoffice/share/crossover/data/DiabloIII.tie --installersource=/media/D3C1.0.0/ --bottle=BOTTLE

But have no clue what to sub in for "BOTTLE" to tell it use the XP temp to creat bottle X

if any one knows please some help

If you right-click on the .tie file, does it give you the option of opening it with "CrossOver (Install)"? It should. If the default program for .tie files is cxinstaller, you should not have to use a command line. It should open up the installer when you double-click it with the proper bottle specification already entered (You can change the bottle name if you so desire). You would then only need to browse for the installer source if that is not filled-in already.

Now, I am assuming that you do have CrossOver installed and functioning. If not, then you will need to get that first.

Also, what Linux distribution and architecture are you using (e.g. Fedora 16 x86_64 or i686; Linux Mint 11 32 or 64 bit, etc.)? It may be helpful to give more details when you post a question like this.

ok for some reason the association was not made before but got it to run..... however still get the Failed to Extract Required Files From Archive error......

So it seems the TIE wont work....

Unfortunately, I can't help you with that. The page for Diablo III from the compatibility listing has the status as "known not to work." The forum for the app is your best bet for informaton on that game.

Here's another thought: Have you tried running /opt/cxoffice/cxdiag to make sure all the parts needed by CrossOver have been installed?

um am running the bin ver so is ~/cxoffice/bin/cxdiag

I get:
[MissingLibCapi20]
"Level"="Suggest"
"Title"="Missing 32bit libcapi20.so.3 library"
"Description"="Provides support for some ISDN cards. Very few applications need this."

[MissingLibTiff]
"Level"="Suggest"
"Title"="Missing 32bit libtiff.so.4 library"
"Description"="This is needed by some applications that need to manipulate TIFF images in their user interface."

could this be it? and how do i fix it?

I messed up the line. It should have been /opt/cxoffice/bin/cxdiag. Regardless, you did run what was appropriate for your installation. I don't think that either one of those would be causing the problem. How you would fix it depends on your version of Linux (which you have not mentioned). For Fedora x86_64, I usually use: "yum provides */libtiff.so.4" and modify it to search for whatever library is needed. You would have to use whatever commands are appropriate for your system.

In the case of /libtiff.so.4, it returns with a not found. However, if I change it to "yum provides /libtiff.so." it returns:

So, if I want to install tiff support, I would choose yum install libtiff-3.9.5-3.fc16.i686 and see if that satisfies what cxdiag wants.

In your case, it looks like you really don't have any glaring problems with 32 bit libraries. It was worth asking though.

Check out the WINE page for Diablo III. It may provide the information you need.

Unfortunately, I can't help you. I don't have any more suggestions. I recommend you keep checking the Diablo III program forum. That will be your best bet to get it working.

There is a special Unsupported Build for downloading and installing Diablo III, are you using that?
