Play history:

Fables & Fiends: The Legend of Kyrandia - Book One

GOG version missing executables, so can only be run in ScummVM.

Fables & Fiends: The Legend of Kyrandia - Book Two: The Hand of Fate

As per the first game, missing DOS binaries so can only be run in ScummVM

Heretic: Shadow of the Serpent Riders

Lemmings

Copy protection disk check can be slightly annoying

Lemmings 2: The Tribes

Use softmpu to play music on the MT32

Resolutions probably limited by VESA modes supported by the Voodoo 3

Although it advertises as Win 95, it's really just a DOS binary running happily under Windows

Lucasarts Classic Adventures

The MT32 handling for Monkey Island & Loom has problems if the machine runs too fast. Using a slowdown method will correct this.

Zak and Maniac store settings in a PREFS file that may need to be edited or deleted if you're fiddling too much with machine settings.

Indy and Monkey Island are VGA only.

Prince of Persia CD Collection

Has stability issues on the retro PC itself, especially with audio enabled.

Quake

Recent custom map history:

Note: Modern enhanced version has a Horde mode now too

System Shock

Try using Shockolate next time I want to play it.

The Ultima Collection

Use softmpu to play music on the MT32 (for Ultima 6)

Tandy sound only works for Ultima 6, but then why would you bother? All older games seem to run fine with Tandy graphics though.

Ultima: Worlds of Adventure 2: Martian Dreams

Use softmpu to play music on the MT32

Ultima: Worlds of Adventure: The Savage Empire

Use softmpu to play music on the MT32

For IPX, one side should "call" and one should answer. I've only managed to get Tetris Classic working. Seems to be trying to identify the other side somehow, and I can't figure out how to configure it "properly". May want to try DosBox on both sides.

All games can be played on a Tandy machine, with sound for the games that have sound at all.

Mac editions of all games included except Tetris Classic. All are Colour and B&W compatible

If you want to play official Linux Quake II, check out the Linux HOWTO

Quake 3

CD Key: R7DJRCDJ7HR7DLGL

Unreal

Not much luck running in Linux so far. It appears the package is corrupt? Run the installer with --help for options to manually extract it. However, actual unreal binary looked like it was missing. md5sum errors seem like a red herring, though temporarily providing the i386 binary didn't cause it to behave any differently.

Might be able to just use the oldskool mod. Some discussion to refer to later

Don't forget to disable mod when not playing Unreal 1 or UT misbehaves!

Unreal Tournament

Also refer to the OpenUT project. Easiest solution now is to just port an existing install. For dependencies, the ones that Steam depends on usually provide enough coverage:

# apt install steam-libs steam-libs-i386

Though Steam will also suggest dependencies when it first starts.

Additional reference from the Debian Wiki:

Install from official repos:

libsm6:i386 osspd-pulseaudio:i386 libpulsedsp:i386

Install from loose DEB files:

After installing those, modify the file /var/lib/dpkg/status to add -Arch: foreign as follow :

Package: libgtk1.2-common
Status: install ok installed
Multi-Arch: foreign
Priority: optional
Section: misc
Installed-Size: 944

and then install:

Run the installer using 32-bit enviroment:

$ sudo linux32 sh unreal.tournament_436-multilanguage.goty.run

Then install the 469 patch. This fixes most bugs with the Linux version, and gets it fully-functional with modern distros. No need to muck around with padsp wrappers either. You may be able to just unarchive the patched data over the Windows install without meeting the UT installer itself, but I've archived the install anyways.

Hosting a Server

While it is still up, the Unreal Admin Wiki seems to be a good resource. GUI choices for hosting a server don't work. To host a basic server on a given map:

$ ucc server DM-Zeto.unr

Many settings are remembered from the GUI (server name, # of bots), and stored in ~/.loki/ut/System/UnrealTournament.ini. Settings can also be set on command-line with ?:

$ ucc server CTF-Command?Game=Botpack.CTFGame?Param2=Value2

List of available game modes:

For now, edit the map lists by editing ini file. Set game settings for the game modes above in the corresponding sections of this file (e.g. [Botpack.DeathMatchPlus]). Note: the manually selected map will replace index 0. The top [URL] section can be changed to set a new default map by editing Map and omitting that from the command-line too.

Linux 2.4

Half-Life 2

Mod history:

Unreal Tournament 2004

CD Key: 6WDF3-3KR8C-A4DQ4-8K4TK

I forget the exact details (or where I found them) for the Linux install. Research on next install.

Known dependencies:

# apt install libstdc++5

Remember: UT2004 is 64-bit!

Also, openal.so in System folder should be symlinked to the current version on the active machine to get working sound. Archive will be accurate for Debian 10-ish.

Linux 2.6

Brütal Legend

Online play still uses Steam, even for DRM-free version.

Gigantic Army

Significant Linux compatibility issues. To add specifics.

Jamestown: Legend of the Lost Colony

64-bit executable non-functional, but 32-bit works fine. Need to populate libsteam_api.so into x86 folder; it is included in Archives/Software/Linux/Libs. After this, just modify the main launcher script to always run the 32-bit binary.

Also delete the bundled version of libopenal.so.1 to fix sound issues.

Machinarium

Significant Linux compatibility issues. To add specifics.

Minecraft

Java-based; will run on any platform.

Currently has a packaging bug on Debian.

The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings

For Linux, need to manually install:

Linux 3.x

Botanicula

Possibly old notes. See if newer versions fix this:

Botanicula uses Adobe Air. It can sometimes complain about missing Gnome Keyring when installing. Correct as follows:

 # ln -s /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgnome-keyring.so.0 /usr/lib/libgnome-keyring.so.0
 # ln -s /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgnome-keyring.so.0.2.0 /usr/lib/libgnome-keyring.so.0.2.0

Then use "Adobe Air Application Installer" to install it.

Shadowrun Returns

Linux version is all kinds of buggy; thanks old Unity. Perhaps fixes like Mr Shifty would work (-screen-fullscreen 0 on command line), but it seems to not even launch after other games have been used. Wine is unfortunately much simpler. Or just use the newer engines in Dragonfall & Hong Kong.

Towerfall Ascension

Expansion is only on GOG version

To add additional gamepads, they need to be added to gamecontrollerdb.txt. My latest copy is stored in the config folder in NextCloud. Most information can be found at the Arch Wiki, but the core details are reproduced as follows.

  1. Download the SDL2 source package:

    $ apt-get source libsdl2

  2. Build and run the controllermap test tool:

    $ cd test
$ ./configure
$ make -j 4
$ ./controllermap 0

  3. Take the output line and add to gamecontrollerdb.txt, being sure to add the platform to the end. Running gamecontrollermap without arguments lists all available gamepads.

A good starting point for the gamepad database can be found at the SDL_GameControllerDB page on Github.

The Steam Big Picture controller configuration can also be used. If using this method, the result will be at ~/.steam/steam/config/config.vdf, under SDL_GamepadBind.

This process may also be used for other SDL2 games. Note that it also appears installing the libsdl2-dev package will also install the controller map tool to /usr/lib/$ARCH/installed-tests/SDL2/.

Individual controller lines can also be specified as environment variables (i.e. for Devterm):

$ export SDL_GAMECONTROLLERCONFIG="03000000af1e00002400000010010000,ClockworkPI DevTerm,platform:Linux,a:b2,b:b1,x:b3,y:b0,leftx:a0,lefty:a1,"

Dead Cells

Remove libsdl-*.so file from game folder to fix gamepad detection bug on Debian Buster

Deadbolt

Library requirements: libssl.so.1.0.0 libcrypto.so.1.0.0

Both i386 versions. Packaged from openssl; best to just use the older Debian package.

Everspace

Current build has a Segmentation Fault on Linux. Fix for now is to disable the VLC plugin. Head to EVERSPACE/game/RSG/Plugins and rename VlcMedia to something else.

Momodora Reverie Under the Moonlight

To fix problems with newer Linux installs, delete bundled copies of libstdc++ and libgcc_s.

Monolith

Requires old version of libssl. It can't be installed normally, so it requires just uncompressing data.tar.xz to root. May require other i386 libs to be installed.

Will run in portrait mode if you rotate your display settings first.

Mr. Shifty

Game has some issues with locale and/or starting in fullscreen. To fix just locale, try setting the following as the game launch option:

LANG=C %command%

To fix both, set the following as the game launch option:

LC_ALL=C %command% -screen-fullscreen 0

Linux 5.x

Mixolumia

Gamepads don't seem to work properly; either causing SIGSEGV or simply not registering. The game only has two buttons, so Antimicro is fine as a workaround. Or keyboard for desktop play.

Soundpacks go into ~/.config/Mixolumia/data/music as subfolders.

Pretty straightforward. Watch for the boss's dash attack in the second phase. Maybe stay further away, or on the platforms

Stage 2

Go for research center. After jetpack guy, watch for sudden spread shot on right side.

Try waiting for the hands to smash, then quickly dodge to the side. Either that, or already be on the wall before the smash?

Stage 3

Use bomb on trash monster. First attack is high, then move positions, then tail sweep.

Taurus boss will eventually keep charging in one direction, so you'll need to get past him.

On tank form of boss, normal attacks don't hit easily. Either time laser hits, or save the homing shot.

With Wine, by default the following error is reported:

wine: Unimplemented function SAPI.DLL.StartEngine called at address 7BC7614C (thread 0009)

Setting a DLL override for SAPI.DLL (use profile mode in winecfg!), results in:

Insufficient memory to run game.

And on the terminal:

Need for Speed 2 SE

To run on Linux (or modern Windows), use the open-source wrapper. Advanced settings (and axis definitions) configured by editing nfs2se.conf in ~.nfs2se.

Need for Speed 3: Hot Pursuit
Basic install method

Run setup in wine (win98 prefix, PWD in CD path)

Alternate install

  1. Insert NFS3 CD, copy the following:

  2. Copy install.win into NFS3 folder

Common to both

  1. Install nglide. Configure for Vulkan

  2. Copy voodoo*.dll into NFS3 folder (overwriting; may not be needed for Wine)

    (or nfs.exe -d3d0 to try Direct3D)

Need for Speed: High Stakes
  1. Install game from CD (use compatibility mode on Installer if needed)
  2. Run NFS Vista Patch (Or standalone patches on XP)
  3. Glide on Windows 8 maybe? Will it work at all?

Or just use NFS_HS_SP_Installer?

  2. Change the wine version of the game to Windows XP (21690).
  3. Download from the web the wmp11 installer (64 bits).
  4. Install it how is described at askubuntu (consider using the right names in my case wmfdist11-64.exe for the codec and wmp11-64.exe for the media player). You have to install it in the game wine prefix with something like this: 
    $ env WINEPREFIX=/home/YOURUSER/.steam/steam/steamapps/compatdata/21690/pfx/ wine wmfdist11-64.exe

Final Fantasy

Steam Community has a Font Modding Page

Also downloaded a good one and placed in my Archive folder. There's usually a copy sitting in Zeta's Download folder too.

It Takes Two

EA/Steam integration inside Proton is still iffy. At the time, I needed to manually run the Origin installer from within Steam:

$ export STEAM_COMPAT_CLIENT_INSTALL_PATH=~/.steam/steam
$ export STEAM_COMPAT_DATA_PATH=/opt/steam/steamapps/compatdata/1426210
$ /usr/local/games/steam/steamapps/common/Proton\ 6.3/proton run '/opt/steam/steamapps/common/ItTakesTwo/__Installer/Origin/redist/internal/OriginThinSetup.exe'

It may also be beneficial to run Steam through the terminal if the game does nothing while attempting to run, in order to debug it. I eventually moved both the game and Proton to my /opt install. Now that the accounts are linked, perhaps just running Origin with Proton-Caller might be easier.
