I am not sure if this Thread is closed or not, although I provide some
information for this game on Ubuntu 10.04 using Wine version 1.1.31 (almost for
sure that was the version). I was not using cedwega or crossovers just Ubuntu
and Wine. I did have to download the EQ file d3dx9_30.dll and put it where it
belonged and I worked with the settings and at first I was only able to get to
character log in and the character was shadowy and buggy. However there is a
place in the Wine settings that you can change graphic properties and settings,
I spent about 3 hours in their changing settings and trying to get it
configured and was very successful, but I did not take note of what I was
changing at the time. I can direct anyone to those settings that I was changing
if they wanted to, but I do not play the game anymore and I did this last
year.. So, anyway the purpose for writing this is to let all of you know that
Everquest can play on Ubuntu without those Expensive Wine programs and what I
found out when I got it to play is that it actually played better that my
windows box. All character models were displayed, zones all looks the same, no
graphics bugs, log in screen was perfect, zoning was great, and hardly any lag
running through the middle of Guildlobby where I was getting more lag on my
windows PC and it had a better graphics card..go figure..I also have
screenshots of my success with it, I made a post on I believe Ubuntuforums and
it was deleted by one of the site admins and I gave up, however I check back to
see if anyone has got that game to play from time to time because that game was
a great game and I played it for 6 years. I do not play anymore because I know
the effects it has on somebody, they don't call it Evercrack for nothing...Good
luck
