Hi,
did anyone manage to get The Settlers 6 working under Linux using wine?
Everything works fine for me but some graphic glitches: for example the terrain is not always at the height it is supposed to be which looks quite funny.
I searched this forum, WineHQ and Google and found some people who manged to get it working so it seems to be possible but no one says how to do it.
Thanks

Hmm i messed around with a few different settings in PlayOnLinux trying to fix this problem and it seams being more related to Settlers6 version rather than Wine versions.

According to (bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=39080) version 1.7 of Settlers 6 introduced the problems with glitcy terrain and i've reproduced the error on Wine 1.6.2, 1.7.42, 3.2

However i was able to get the game running without the terrain glitz following the guides from winehq (appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=17245&iTestingId=97315)

This is my setup:
Running wine 3.2 (32bit) in PlayOnLinux container on Ubuntu 16.04 (Wine 1.7.42 seams fine as well)
Enabling "directx9" under PlayOnLinux->Configure->Install Components
Setting: "VideoMemorySize=256" & "OffscreenRenderingMode=fbo" under PlayOnLinux->Configure->Display
Download and applying NO-DVD fix, for version 1.5.4 (Find the right folder: /GOG Games/The Settlers 6/base/bin)

This solved the problem I have however not played far enough in the campaign to see how the nocd patch for a lower version handles the extra material included in the GOG gold edition.

I found the NoCd patch on a gamingsite I found "trustworthy", in my mind all sites offering to host NoCD patches and the like are notoriously sketchy, but I was running out of options.

How this helps others in the same situation

Regards
