Fourth thing, Run POL from Application>Games>Play On Linux
From Tools Menu > Run a Non-Official Script and paste the script below.

Fifth, browse for the script that u just saved from your Documents Folder.

NOTE: After installation, go to Tools Menu and install Direct X.

Chain2k credits.
Good Luck.

This really needs putting in the guide section, not the private server guide section...
04/14/2012 13:51 Angellinho#3
Aren`t here Guides and Releases?
I tought it`s ok but if I think better it`s more related to Conquer Online 2.0 than Conquer Online private servers.
Yep, should be moved.

08/10/2014 03:58 Silent-Death#12
right.. so..

In the PlayOnLinux gui from the ubuntu repositories, under Tools you say we should find an Install DirectX thing, but it`s not there, and after trying in both wine and POL to install some directx packages, and even all of them, I still get the "Your direct3d is not compatible with your blahblah" .. so.. any suggestions?
08/10/2014 06:25 Spirited#13
Have you tried Wine?

Yeah, I just feel like I`m missing something simple here. The game installs just fine in both wine and POL, and then I have to install the set of updates 5910-5935 manually (that also works fine) but when the Conquer interface wants to start I get that retarded picture in the middle of the screen that pops up right before the client and right there I get that Direct3D incompatibility error.

I tried running it as win xp/7/8 with dx 9/10/11 and even all dx installed in the same time, I get the same error.

I'm running a nvidia card and the intel graphic card, and I have this feeling that wine is using the intel one, specially because nvidia-prime works like crap so I`m using bumblebee for my Optimus needs.

I`ll just dig more into the man pages and see where that takes me.

Let me know if anyone else is experiencing anything of the sorts.

Do you have adobe flash installed? I mean, not exactly related to the issue, but that's the only other thing I can possibly think of at this moment.
