Hi,

Description : Racing game developped by Codemaster

 

    I got Grid from GOG recently, since i saw that a script for the CD version was created. I also found a previous script for GOG there http://www.playonmac.com/fr/topic-10580-GOGcom__Race_Driver_GRID.html. I had to modify it since the gog files changed. The game was successfuly installed and run fine on a :

  • Xubuntu 14.04
  • POL 4.2.2
  • Nvidia drivers 341 ( from repositories )
  • wine version 1.7.30

In order to run it smoothly it's recommended to lower the graphics options. I tried with versions lower than the latest but i got problems with lights.

I also tried on an other computer with the same parameters mentioned above ( not the same hardware ), with the 4.2.5 version of POL, but the game, after a few seconds of race crash ( I'll upload a log if i cannot find where is the problem.
