Having a hard time with FF XIII and wine

SirCmpwn · 2014-11-09 04:32:44

Hi there! I'm trying to run Final Fantasy XIII on wine. I installed it through Steam. I've seen this page, but my problems don't seem to be addressed there and I don't know what to do.

When I run the game from steam, I get no feedback whatsoever. The process is running according to ps, but nothing launches, no sound appears, etc.

I tried setting my resolution to 720p, which did not change anything. I also tried running FFXIII manually from the Steam install. Running the launcher gives me the launcher window, but it closes and the process exits when I hit "Play". Running FFXIII directly does not have any effect.

That page is for the retail PC version , not the steam version.

Have you tried to follow this page : https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Steam/Wine ?

Are you launching steam from from a terminal? If so is there any output that might look odd such as a segmentation fault?

I installed Steam with the instructions on that page, yes. It's just FFXIII that doesn't work, other games are fine. There's no winehq page for the steam version, so the retail version is the next best thing.

Output, nothing interesting
