OK! I installed fresh 32-bit installation from repack and installed a LOT of possible packages on it. Let's see if I can run it! BTW, one of previous problems was that it is fulscreen- anyone knows how to configure video settings without running game?
Many games have a config (.cfg) file in the game folders where you can manually set the resolution and display options. I don't know if Resident Evil does or not, but you could poke around the game folders and look for it. I found these tips: Just replace the resolution to match your Linux desktop Other Display settings are in this file as well. You should be able to find this config in your /home folder Look for a Capcom folder
http://ubuntu-wine.ru/index/resident_evil_5/0-66 who can tell if this would work? And would it also work on repacked no-DVD version?
Um... Steam version has the same bug. I tried installing Steam in POL and than installing RE5, but get the same problem. P.S. Thanks Daerandin for gifting me Steam RE5
Well, if I set it to FULSCREEN = OFF in config.ini in CAPCOM/RESIDENT EVIL 5, than I get campcom logo and Dolby digital logo at begining, but than black screen. I also tried to follow this, but with steam in PlayOnLinux, but didn't help. https://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=32123
OK! I have ran it. I found a post about Resident Evil: Revelations where it was said that turning OFF Rendering Threads in config.ini fixes all. Indeed, also here it fixes. However, a lot of flickering. What could be resolvement for this as the game gets almost unplayable?
Maybe this will be easier to understand for you and maybe you can figure it out: After setting the config.ini to this: Code: [GAME] MouseBaseSpeed=2.000000 [GRAPHICS] SLI=OFF Stereo=OFF HDR=LOW MSAA=NONE TextureFilter=ANISOTROPIC16X TextureDetail=LOW MotionBlur=OFF NormalMapping=ON NormalUpdate=ON Specular=ON Lighting=LOW FilterQuality=LOW WaterQuality=LOW EffectQuality=LOW EffectVolume=LOW ShadowQuality=LOW LOD=HIGH Joint=HIGH Adhesion=HIGH MotionBlurQuality=NONE [DISPLAY] Resolution=1280x720 RefreshRate=60Hz FullScreen=OFF VSYNC=OFF AdjustAspect=OFF FrameRate=VARIABLE [SOUNDS] SeVoiceNum=128 ReverbQuality=LOW CategoryEQ=ON [CPU] JobThread=3 RenderingThread=OFF [JOYPAD] A=2 B=1 X=3 Y=0 LEFT=15 RIGHT=13 UP=12 DOWN=14 START=9 BACK=8 LT=4 LB=6 RT=5 RB=7 LSTICK_PUSH=10 LSTICK_VERT=Y LSTICK_HORZ=X RSTICK_PUSH=11 RSTICK_VERT=Z RSTICK_HORZ=RZ and setting Wine to 1.7.41 or newer(1.7.42-staging...) I made the game run. It works fully, I tested it, but only in Windowed mode(could be GPU fault), but... A very huge problem. I can't play the game. Every time when it is NOT playing a video using WMP, I get a werid flickering where it is like distorted out of the position, like HUDs and in game elements would try to fly out of screen or parts of image rotate aswell, especially in menu, I see a lot of letters(mostly asian) aswell as some numbers of screen. Werid, right. However, it only happens in Resident Evil 5 window. I am using a Steam installed in POL and running legal RE5.
People are here frequently, the lack of replies probably just means that nobody have any help to offer at the moment. When it comes to certain games in Wine, it takes patience as the solution may be difficult.
In my case works (windowed back to solve problem equal to ultra street fighter IV), i play around 40min without issues, however more later upload video maybe stay around in 5 to 6 hours
Um... Werid, why it doesn't work for me? Maybe you could make a full installation video? Make sure you use exactly Steam version- Residetn evil 5 gold edition

Doesn't work in fulscreen for me(may be GPU fault). Thanks everyone for help. Last thing I need help with is how to reset my progress and start a new games: Please help!
I've seen flickering in many games, sometimes installing the right d3dx will fix the problem or make it worse. What kind of flickering are you seeing exactly? Ground textures, shadows, animation, etc? Since you are using the newer versions of Wine, that probably isn't the problem. You can also try messing with the PlayOnLinux display settings in Configure. Under the Display tab you can disable GLSL Sometimes that makes improvements on graphics and shaders
Well, I fixed it, but the flickering affected everything. It was more like a destroying screen, everything sharded. However, fix came here!
Yeah, it runs for me similarry now, of course, because I have 2 grades lower GPU, it runs on worse FPS, alothugh my quadcore more Hz processor helps out a bit However, if I'd get a PS4 or PS3 or(the best) PC controller, it'd be much better to play this game with it. Is it possible to do it on Linux Ubuntu without any complicated setup?
Maybe its time to get a new video card. My GeForce 550 Ti rocks and its been almost 3 years since I got it. You might want to look into a GeForce 750 Ti I've heard they are really good and do not require extra power
