Luckily, this setup lets me play FL with the latest Wine version just fine. I bound that to Super+F1, so whenever I enter or leave a station I just press that key combination and I'm back to playing just fine.īefore I figured this out, the best suggestions I could find for multiplayer FL were to use Wine 1.1.20 or something, which I couldn't even get to work. To get around that I wrote a script and bound it to a hotkey in my window manager: However, for some reason Freelancer will put itself back on the first CPU core whenever you enter or leave a station.

You can get Freelancer's PID with `pgrep Freelancer`. The game will just seamlessly move to that CPU core. It works impressively well to do this with Freelancer's PID. `taskset -cp 3 666` will put PID 666 on the 4th cpu (the 1st core is 0).

opening the map freezes the game for several seconds on my PC (i5 2500 quad core can fix this with the 'taskset' command (from package util-linux on Arch) to put Freelancer on its own CPU core, separate from Wine and whatever else.Į.g.

This means the game hitches and freezes quite often - e.g. I also ran into a performance issue: Freelancer usually uses 100% of the CPU core it's on for me. It's probably possible, but the server crashes immediately for me and it was easier just to get my friend to host. I have *not* been able to host a server on this setup. A friend of mine hosted a serverĪnd we played multiplayer through Hamachi just fine. I was able to launch the game, start a singleplayer game, and find and connect to multiplayer servers in the server list. Run the Discovery launcher (DSLauncher.exe) to play the game.Īt this point everything should work. Without them (it'll use your system fonts instead), but the UI might be weird. The ones you want are Agency FB and Arial Unicode MS, both in your Wineprefix's drive_c/windows/fonts directory. If you copy a directory, you might not have the right fonts in-game.

Install Freelancer from disc, or copy an installed Freelancer directory. I'm not sure if they're all necessary, but they're what I've got. Native: d3dx9_24 through _43, dplayxn, dpnet, dpnhpast, dpnsvr.exe, dpwsockxīy 'd3dx9_24 through _43', I mean *every number* between 24 and 43. Ensure you have the following DLL overrides (I think Winetricks will do this for you): Use Winetricks to install the following: d3dx9, directplay, dotnet20, dotnet30, dotnet40, mfc42, msls31, msvcirt, riched20, riched30, vcrun6, vcrun6sp6.

Set up a 32-bit Windows XP wineprefix (WINEARCH=win32, WINEPREFIX=/where/ever). I'm on Arch Linux x86_64 with kernel 4.5.2-1-ck, but this should be doable with any Linux distro. I think the key parts are installing directplay from Winetricks on a 32-bit Windows XP wineprefix. I thought I'd share in case anyone's interested.

I've been able to play Freelancer multiplayer using the Discovery mod (4.88.1). Admin note: the following was taken from a user comment made on May 31st 2016 and may not be relevant to current Wine.
