WineX 3 help

[blackhawk714]

I got wineX 3 and it installed fine. I installed the Windows version of Wolfenstein Enemy Territory on it and it installed fine. I want to know how to run the game. Here is waht it tried already:

$winex3 ET.exe
/usr/lib/transgaming_winex3//winex/bin/wine: cannot find 'ET.exe'
$cd /home/user/.transgaming/c-drive/Program Files/Wolfenstein - Enemy Territory
bash: cd: /home/jordan/.transgaming/c_drive/Program: No such file or directory (I know that the folder is there!)

I need some real help here guys. Any suggestions would be great. Thanks

and play the game nativly on Linux :)

I get no servers when I play the game nativley. I click play online and I get nothing in the server list. Even after I press refresh I get nothing. Any idea why??? Thanks

I think I may know what the problem may be, its like this on lots of Quake 3 arena engine games, make sure you've clicked internet for the server list instead of local, I think every Quake 3 engine game defaults to local, at least it did for me, I clicked the local thing and it switched to internet, which fixed my problem and off I went to playing JK II and Quake 3 on the net, you would get the same problem with the windows version because you have to do the same thing, so make sure if you can run native, you always do so :), I hope that fixes your problem, have fun.

I made sure that it was checked to the internet source. I get no servers at all. I click refresh list and get nothing. I even typed in a few ip addresses I got off the net and still get nothing. (I don't even know if those servers were running or not though) I really need some help here guys.

Try running it from the command line, hopefully you will get errors there.

the only thinkI can think of is PB is not working right, but that wouldn't stop the server list...

I am kinda new to linux (about 1 year) and still need some work. How do you run the program from the command line??? Thanks

The reason you can't find the Wolfenstein directory is because there are spaces in the path.

To use a path with spaces in the command line, you have to use the escape sequence of \<sp>.

So what you want to type is:

cd /home/user/.transgaming/c-drive/Program\ Files/Wolfenstein\ -\ Enemy\ Territory

This also goes for executables with a space in the filename, such as wine Seti\ Driver.exe

Or you can use quotations like:
cd "/home/user/.transgaming/c-drive/Program Files/Wolfenstein - Enemy Territory"
