Open the shortcut file and insert the following: # / bin / bash cd ' path to the folder of your game ' (wine SC3.EXE -r1024x768 ) The example above starts the game in fullscreen and with resolution 1024x768 Another example: # / bin / bash cd ' path to the folder of your game ' (wine SC3.EXE -w -r800x600 ) The example above starts the game in window with resolution 800x600.

Supported Resolutions 640x480, 800x600, 1024x768, 1280x1024 Note: if you uses multicore cpu, read tutorial Fix Multicore Freezing / crashing (below). If you run SC3K on a multicore/multicpu system the game may fail, either on the menu or after clicking play.

Install with: # apt-get install schedtool Or: $ wget $ tar xf schedtool-1.1.2.tar.bz2 $ cd schedt. $ sudo make install run sc3k by: $ schedtool -a 0x1 -e wine SC3.EXE NOTE: If you use different resolution and multicore, use this model of shortcut: # / bin / bash cd ' path to the folder of your game ' (schedtool -a 0x1 -e wine SC3.EXE -r1024x768 ) for more information read the tutorial Resolution ( above ). It's great running wine to play this game. I wanted to post my observations: o 1.5.8 on linux works but is slower than 1.5.4 o 1.5.4 on linux works great! O 1.5 on snow leopard (macports) allows game install but the game pops up in a blank window, with sound. O 1.4 on snow leopard (macports) plays great, but can't play in a window - full screen only regardless of command line switches.
My linux box is a laptop running Ubuntu 11.04. I compile wine from source, thinking it would work better while I was debugging. My Mac is a macbook pro (January 2011) with the cd-rom supplied development environment. Regards, Craig.
