Hi.

I've heard this game work perfectly under wine.

I've mangaged to installed it. But under cedega-4.4.3 it just crashes before the intro.
Under wine-0.9.5 the intro plays perfectly. But when the game begins, the screen becomes very corrupted.
It's not playble.

Doesn't anyone have success experience with this game?
What version of wine or cedega do you use?

Thanks.

I've got it running perfectly under Cedega 5.0. Just make sure to use the -gl option. I made a little "script" file and an icon for it on the desktop pretty easily. I just set it to run this:

cd '/home/acid/.cedega/Dot TransGaming/c_drive/Program Files/LucasArts/Monkey 4'
cedega Monkey4.exe -gl


After that, game loads perfect :)

I'll try to add -gl option after I go home.

Adding -gl option fixed the 3D graphics problem.
But the movies will be gone.

Then I tried to use Monkey.exe instead of Monkey4.exe. (never done this before)
To my suprise, everything works!

I am using wine 0.9.5-r1.
And I have to use xgame to play it in another X session.

Here is my script
Code:
#!/bin/sh
#
# Escape from Monkey Island script
#
cd ~/.wine/C_drive/monkey4
wine Monkey.exe
# Must sleep or xgame will terminate
sleep 24h

Hello!

How did you get installed it? I have problems with changing the CD during the installation process. I'm using wine-0.9.8
