Box86 and Wine on RPi4

@shavecat How did you get shovel knight working on Box86 and Wine? it is super slow for me (linux version) and then it crashes. The windows version doesn't run at all.......

duglor

@Folly do you have shovel knight (linux or windows) working on your pie or age of Empires 1 w- w/o expansion?

My AOE 1 for Wine just fails to launch.

My Linux Shovel Knight launches and is super slow and then crashes.

My windows Shovel Knight for Wine shows a black screen but i can hear the sounds and and such and i think the game is working except no display, which sorts of kills the game lol :D

Anyone gotten Knights of the Old Republic to run at a decent speed? Box86/Wine?

Hi @duglor,

Don't use Box86 and wine anymore on my pi4.
It's very nice that it can work but I found it too much of a hassle and too slow.
Perhaps I will try it once in the future again on my pi5 or pi6 again ;-)
So can't help you right now.
