How to post a message here?
There are few rules to respect. To start, you have to be polite and write fluently (SMS language is forbidden, message are immediatly deleted). Then, try to provide as much information as you can
Linux version: You OS distribution, and version.
Version de POL: PlayOnLinux version (you can get it in the help menu: About PlayOnLinux).
Full computer specs: CPU, RAM, graphics card type and installed drivers, etc.
All error message you can find (preferably from the debug logs available in Tools -> PlayOnLinux/PlayOnMac debugger)
For exemple, this kind of message won't be accepted
Hi, I have a big problem with POL, when I try to run it, it doesn't work. Please help, it is urgent, I'm new in linux, I don't understand anything! Please help!

How to paste properly a log?
Really easy, copy and paste it, and give it the console style (Styles -> Console)
Example:
wine: Call from
0x7b83d8e9 to unimplemented function imm32.dll.ImmGetContext,
aborting
wine: Unimplemented
function imm32.dll.ImmGetContext called at address 0x7b83d8e9 (thread
0026), starting debugger...
err:module:load_builtin_dll
failed to load .so lib for builtin L"dbghelp.dll":
/home/jonsnow/.PlayOnLinux//wine/linux-x86/1.7.1-GuildWars2/lib/libz.so.1:
fichier trop court
err:module:import_dll
Loading library dbghelp.dll (which is needed by
L"C:\\windows\\system32\\winedbg.exe") failed (error
c000007a).
How to paste properly a script?
Exactly the same, but instead of Console, choose PlayOnLinux script. The code will be coloured once posted
