5 - Run the patch ( $ wine cc95versionnumber.exe ) and point where you installed the game.
6 - Download CnC-DDraw and copy to the game folder.
7 - Create a DDraw.ini in the game folder, and put the especific settings:
[ddraw]
width=yourcurrentresolutionwidth
height=yourcurrentresolutionheight
; bits per pixel, possible values: 16, 24 and 32, 0 = auto
bpp=0
windowed=false
; show window borders in windowed mode
border=true
; use letter- or windowboxing to make a best fit (GDI only!)
boxing=false
; real rendering rate, -1 = screen rate, 0 = unlimited, n = cap
maxfps=120
; vertical synchronization, enable if you get tearing (OpenGL only)
vsync=false
; scaling filter, nearest = sharp, linear = smooth (OpenGL only)
filter=nearest
; mouse sensitivity scaling
adjmouse=false
; manual sensitivity scaling, 0 = disabled, 0.5 = half, 1.0 = normal
sensitivity=0.0
; enable C&C/RA mouse hack
mhack=true
; enable C&C video resize hack, auto = auto-detect game, true = forced, false = disabled (OpenGL only)
vhack=auto
; switch between OpenGL (opengl) and software (gdi) renderers, latter supports less features but might be faster depending on the GPU
renderer=opengl
-- A note¹: if you want the game in windowed, keep reading this topic
-- A note²: you can change the filter, and the renderer settings for your preferences.
8 - Configure wine
$ winecfg
On the Applications tab, click on "Add Application", and point to the C&C95.exe
On the Libraries tab, add "ddraw.dll" for the library replacements.
On the Graphics tab, Enable "Emulate an virtual desktop", and put your current resolution there.
On the Audio tab, Change the "Hardware acceleration" from "Hardware" to "Emulation".
-- A note: If you want the game in windowed mode, change the width and height of ddraw.ini to an smaller than your screen, and so do it for the Wine desktop emulation.
9 - $ wine ccsetup.exe and select your resolution. Don't mess into other settings, otherwise cnc-ddraw will not work right.
-- A note: Edit conquer.ini to get more options. And if you use 640x400, you will get the game original aspect ratio.
10 - now, browse in the game folder using the terminal and run it with the following command:
$ wine C/&C95.exe (do not forget the "/"!)
A probably FAQ:
Q: Why can't i use the windowed in ddraw.ini?
A: Somehow, if you do that, the mouse get locked in the middle of the screen
Q: Why i can't enable vsync?
A: I do not recomend that, give me a crappy FPS and Mouse lag bug.
Q: Why do i need to put the Hardware acceleration to "Emulation"
A: Otherwise the game sound will hang up.
Q: Why do i need to set the "Emulate a virtual desktop"?
A: Otherwise the Mouse will lock into the botton of the screen.
