Praetorian-Game Problem

Asked by Damian

Hello. Yesterday I installed a very old game named praetorians with WINE. But when i start the game it shows me just fine the eidos and tyro studios advertise and after that the game should start... Instead the screen gets "insane"... It stays black in some parts and in other it bring some pieces of fire-fox that is use in another workspace. anyway the things the screen shows doesn't make any sense... It is pieces of some programmes all together.
When I used windows it worked just fine... Please any suggestions? Thanks

You'd better post it to Wine team (winehq.org) maybe they'll fix it.

OK problem solved :)
The answer is virtual desktop...

winecfg -> graphics tab -> "Emulate a virtual desktop

And it should play fine :)
