Works great. Use wine 1.7.32 no additional library and no wine settings. Don't forget to tell POL to use a 64 bit prefix. (requires a 64 bit Linux) Use 32 bit If need be although I suspect they will probably drop support for 32 bit eventually so they can use advanced features of 64 bit. I think its great how wine is starting to run newer games with out having to tweak settings or add library’s. If you try to play before the Installer has fully downloaded the game then you may get sound and other problems. Just use the Blizzard Launcher to play so that it keeps the game updated. I hope the next version of POL lets me install a game to a different drive as my System drive where POL is installed is getting very low on space. Try using low space Windows with low space on drive C: and you will get the famous Blue Screen of Death! O by the way for 64 bit select Battle.net Launcher for the short cut. Enjoy.
Awesome! Congratulations! Post some screenshots or a video... How great is it when a game works with no problems? I love it! Its always nice to hear 64-bit is working as well. I'm pretty sure you can install games on another partition or drive by using links. Create your virtual drive, install your game, then move the wineprefix to the other drive/partition Then link to it in your wineprefix folder. I bet that would take care of it.
Moving the winprefix might work but would I be able to update the wine version doing it that way? I got those annoying sound issues again. Sounds like the old buffer underrun problem with ALSA. How do I post pics?
Apparently when ever I get much sever lag it causes the sound problems. My sister said the game was running fine on her end so I am guessing my service had some problems in my area or my system was messed up. Since Linux rarely gets messed up just by running then,,, I still don"t know how to post pics.
Yes, the Wine files are in a different directory, not in the wineprefix. So you could try it and if it doesn't work, just move the wineprefix back to the .PlayOnLinux directory

Oh, sorry I press the PrintScreen button on the keyboard Mint will automatically save the screen shot in the pictures folder
I will try that next time I am in the game. BTW: it seems that Wow has been the victim of some Denial of Service attacks lately.
Why am I not surprised? Anyone who makes a lot of money and gets a lot of publicity is always attacked by someone
I discovered that alt tab messes up the sound and sometimes when you switch back to the game, the sound is muted. I have to quit and restart WoW to get sound working again. Oww! It hurts having this bear sticking out of my leg.
Yes this is a problem with Wine not supporting Pulseaudio Even if you Ctrl+Alt+Arrow and switch to another desktop, it can cause problems in-game. Or if you have another program running with sound, it can affect your game. Best thing to do is close everything and then launch your game.
RE: Wow 64bit Freeze by Xpander on Thursday December 11th 2014, 6:53 RE: Wow 64bit Freeze by Xpander on Thursday December 11th 2014, 6:53 csmt patched wine leaks memory imo thats probably why... im using without csmt but with GL_THREADED_OPTIMIZATIONS and its absolutely perfect I found this in wine AD How can I enable this via POL? Edit: I forgot to add this: https://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=category&iId=2&sAction=view&sTitle=Browse Applications Edit 2: That link dosn't work like I thought it would. Look up WoW version 6.0.3.
Memory Leaks are the WORST! My biggest challenges have been because of memory leaks: Crysis 2 and Bioshock 2 Still no permanent fixes for them
Here are a couple of things I have found that seem to get rid of the problems and make things look better. IN POL confg: 1. In Arguments add: export_GL_THREADED_OPTIMIZATIONS=1 2. for direct draw render, select opengl this seems to solve the problems. Now go and enjoy playing World of Warcraft: Warlords of Dranor.version 6.0.3.
I looked on the WADB (wine). I don't know if it works on other games. I am going to try it on STO. It looks like there may be other ways to improve WOW, if multiple aurguments can be in POL's wine prefix.
Yes, multiple arguments can be run in PlayOnLinux. Normally if you add a "space" or "-" that will run then next command. Like This: Code: -no-dwrite -noLauncher
