      @hooperre OpenRCT2 runs great for me. You just need to lower the resolution and change the render mode (I think I had a post about OpenRCT2 around her somewhere with optimal settings)

        @quicksilver Do you run OpenRCT in wine or did you compile it yourself?

          @hooperre compiled it from source. Doesn't need wine.

            @hooperre heres the post on how to compile it yourself.

            but i do have a install script made to do it all for us.
            let me double check to make sure it is all working good, and then i will post a link to my github for it.

            i was waiting till i had all my new scripts cleaned up. to make a new post about suggestions for ports.

            but why not help a little now

              @exarkuniv Beautiful! Thanks!

              @quicksilver Ya, I remember your thread about compiling it, but had never got around to doing it myself. I was specifically referring to the Windows version and running it in wine.

                @exarkuniv Great that you have been making build scripts for these ports! Something I always wanted to do but never got around to. Definitely post them to the ports thread when you have a chance. Itd be great to get them in incorporated into RetroPie or RetroPie-extra

                    How exactly do the games run with box or wine once box and wine are installed??
                    Is there a guide somewhere?? About how to use them with games?
                    Thanks in advance

                            Good day so the Retro Devils and supreme team have been working hard to simplthis wine install.

                            We have made a one line installer . It also does the following

                            • uses qjoypad to map controls from keyboard to your controller
                            • loads different layout per game .
                            • launches exe directly from emulation station .
                            • has ui for installing mugen or just wine and box86.

                            Heres our github . With how to load new games , map controls for each game etc.

                              I am not using Box86/Wine at the moment.
                              So much other things to do ;-)

                              But this development sounds really COOL !

                                Update: i'm using the Box86 Master version (latest 0.2.5), Mesa 21.3.2 and Wine v-6.22 or 7.0-rc2. I've encountered no new problems with this combo ...

                                      @retropieuser555 did you configured anything special? I've can't solve the garbled colors problem (beside this the game works).

                                      I've tried the normal fallout version en de HD version. Both have the same problem.

                                          @jajalobrit I think I installed it directly from a Redist folder along with the game I was installing. That or it installed with GOG automatically prompting for it. I think Neverwinter Nights was the game that I used that included it.
