WINE SETTINGS:
To fix sound problems set “openal32″ to “native” – I also had to set my sound hardware to “emulate”.
Run the game under Windows XP application settings. When I tried to run under Vista it froze on launch.
RUNNING THE GAME:
GRID launches full-screen no problem. There was some framerate stuttering – though tweaking graphics + sound settings in Wine fixed major issues. Some stuttering during loading sequences.
PROBLEMS NOTED:
- you may need to run the game in a virtual desktop first to set full-screen resolution.
- Running under Vista froze the game on launch.
- Random crashing during loading screens when exiting a race and returning to garage (wine 1.3.15)
NOT TESTED YET:
- multiplayer LAN
- online play
