Brand new to CrossOver.
I am using Crossover games on Kubuntu 8.04. No part of my system has been customised in any way. It is literally "out of the box".
I will start by saying that I know that COD4 is not supported but I am hoping that someone can share their success story with me so I can try and enjoy this game now that I have abandoned Windows, hopefully for good.
I have managed to install the game (minus the Punk Buster) and even managed to install Patches 1.6 and 1.7.
I even managed to install the patch which takes away the need for inserting the DVD.
When I try to launch the game (single player) it seems to go through the motions, showing the splash screen and then blackens the screen for a few second. Then rather than starting the game I get my desktop back but at a lower resolution (1024 X 768).
Same happens when I try to launch the Multi Player.
So if anyone has an idea, I would love to hear from you.
COD4 needs a few legacy D3D features which are currently unimplemented, and which the game never uses; Still it is stubborn enough not to start if those features are not advertised. I have been working in the past months to implement those things, but it isn't fully done yet :-/
