Game: Freedom Force
Installer MD5: ded351d935e57323bf3cf03ac63eff4d setup_freedom_force_2.0.0.6.exe
WineHQ AppDB link: https://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=application&iId=3472
CodeWeavers link: https://www.codeweavers.com/compatibility/crossover/freedom-force
Distro: Linux Mint 17.3 Cinnamon 64bit
Kernel version: 3.19.0-51
Graphics card: Nvidia GeForce GTX 750Ti
Graphics driver & version: Proprietary 364.12
Wine version(s) tested: Wine Staging 1.9.5 via PlayOnLinux, CrossOver 15.0.1
Install notes: Just install & play.
If using PlayOnLinux, run the game from/create a shortcut for "fforce.exe"
How well does it run: Perfect
Details: Have only played for a short while but there was no sign of any problems. Tested with virtual desktop and CSMT enabled. If you access the options menu, go to the sound tab before leaving or you will lose sound (you don't need to change anything & this only needs to be done the first time you access the options menu per session) - if that happens, go back into the options and set sound provider to "DirectSound3D Software Emulation" to fix it. This is a bug with the game itself & happens on Windows too.
