StarCraft Remastered under Wine


Recommended Posts

Hi

I am trying to run the game under Linux + wine64 (several latest versions checked), but ZClient 05.13.06.21 just fails with "ZI not runned or communication failure".

However, if instead I run wine with following command it starts the game, but the game is hardly usable to due to excessive logging.

WINEDEBUG=+relay WINEARCH=win64 WINEPREFIX=~/.wine64 wine64 ZClient.exe "c:\\Program Files (x86)\\StarCraft Remastered\\x86_64\\StarCraft.exe" &> wine.log

I suspect some race condition in ZClient which hides once "slow" run is done.

Now it shows ZClient 05.16.18.17

However, it fails to run again. This time with error "ZI not runned or communication failure1".

Not sure what that 1 now means.

BTW, shouldn't be spelled as "ZI not run" instead?

P.S.

As a workaround I now use

WINEDEBUG=+relay WINEARCH=win64 WINEPREFIX=~/.wine64 wine64 ZClient.exe "c:\\Program Files (x86)\\StarCraft Remastered\\x86_64\\StarCraft.exe" 2>&1 | tail -n 10

It works more or less ok, avoiding generating GBs/min in disk space.

 

As for Diablo - I am afraid with now current internet connection I will download it at the end of the next century :)
