UPDATE 30-Dec-2015: Sources are now available here

As I did for Wine trough 1.7.55 - 1.8 yesterday I was able to merge

• Wine 1.9.0
• Wine-Staging 1.9.0
• Gallium-Nine -- latest patches extracted from iXit github repo (HTTP: https://github.com/iXit/wine | GIT https://github.com/iXit/wine.git)

On 28-Dec-2015 for Gallium-Nine there are 43 patches. Since I wanted to merge "Staging Tab" from Wine-Staging and "Staging Tab" from iXit

• 32 patches can be applied directly
• The other have to be applied directly or reversed or updated manually

There are 2 or 3 patches that I didn't apply. Those patches deal with cleaning up the code. It didn't work for me. So I let it as it is. (= without cleaning up the code)

I will add patches for Steam (steamwebhelper.exe). See Section "Steam Client Build Issues" on the page for Steam on WineHQ Web Site

This game is F2P (FreeToPlay). It is almost like GTA (even if I didn't play GTA )

1. Patch for wine

You have to patch Wine so this game can work.

• You can download my own sources for Wine-Staging 1.8.0 patched with Gallium-Nine
• After that you have to apply this patch https://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=51697

  cd /path/to/Wine/Sources
  wget "https://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=51697" -O - |patch -p1

3. Prerequisites

winetricks -q dotnet20 ie8

For the peace of mind try this

winetricks -q dotnet20 ie8 vcrun2005 vcrun2008 vcrun2010 vcrun2012

4. Tips to know

The launcher freezes trying to re-install "Client1.19....zip"

• Kill the game

  wineserver -k

• Relaunch Steam and the game. Sometime you may have to do this 2 or 3 times. To be honest I don't really know why

The game takes a lot of times to start

• It should take from 20 to 50 seconds to start as shown in video above

A pretty good FPS. I received my new AMD card (Sapphire R9 280X). It was the occasion to switch to this new card although R9 280X is just a HD 7970 OC card (OC = Over Clocked), based on Tahiti. I should have the same performance

Tips to know (360° rotation for mouse)

360° Rotation with mouse

• (winecfg): Set up a virtual desktop (mine is 1920x1080).
• (winecfg): Check the box "Capture mouse pointer..."

Issue while quiting the game

The game freeze when I want to quit the game. I used a virtual desktop. This way I can open another terminal and use

wineserver -k

The game works out-of-the-box.
