hi there
for those of you that don't know, postal 2 is a "psycho 3d shooter" using the
unreal2 engine. for a long time i was not able to get it running until i
noticed that there was an opengl frontend availible for it.
postal 2 is really running great in opengl mode, i only had a few minor issues
in getting it running:
1: the installer appears to use winrar for unpacking the data files, but
winrar did not work as it should be on my system so i had to copy the
installation from windows.
2: i had to download the opengl frontend from
http://www.gopostal.com/support/postal2/opengl.htm
( make sure to use one resolution for both the scissors
intro, the menu and the game, this can be edited in Postal2.ini )
3. i had to minimize the KDE Kicker because it stayed on top of wine.
after this the game is running almost perfect.
i get a zillion of these warnings, be they do not appear to harm the game:
fixme:imm:ImmAssociateContext (0x10026, 0x68036828): semi-stub
fixme:imm:ImmGetDefaultIMEWnd (0x10026): semi-stub
fixme:imm:ImmGetContext (0x10026): stub
but the game was fully playeble to the end.
i tested it on an AMD XP2200 with 512MB memory and a Geforce4 Ti 4200
128MB )
hope this is usefull to someone, happy shooting everybody!
