WoW crashes with Access Violation Error in Wine

#1 » Post by bulletfreak » 26 Jul 2016 10:09

Hi. I'm trying to run WoW under Wine here and whenever I'm in a decently populated area (the npcs in undercity and orgimmar) my game instantly freeze up then crashes. I'm running Wine version 1.8 under Slackware. I have the game running in OpenGL mode and everything. I get an unstable 60 fps walking around in an empty area. I'm using the free catalyst video drivers instead of the proprietary one because it will no longer supports the version of Xorg I'm using until AMD releases their new "AMDGPU" drivers.

Seems to be a runtime error.
Do you have the following softwares properly installed?
  • .NET Frameworks
    Directx
If this is an issue who became to occur after a installation of WoW, or any other software, you may download a new client.

There's things that never will be right I know, and things need changin' everywhere you go.
But 'til we start to make a move to make a few things right,
You'll never see me wear a suit of white.

Well I have Mono and Directx already. Unless I need regular .NET instead?

Adding that line seems to have fixed it. DirectX seems like it may run better then OpenGL, which is weird on Linux. Anyways thanks a lot man. Cheers
