Graphics card : Nvidia, GeForce 9xxx
Drivers of the graphics card : 185.18.14
Comments :

Hi, thanks for the script but I keep getting the error "Unable to find the version : 1.1.25"

Is there any way to fix or get past this?

I have tried on a fresh install of both Ubuntu9.04 32 and 64 bit, and on fedora 11 64 bit. I am guessing it has to do with the wine version, and I have tried installing different wine versions to no avail.

Please try now

Works beautifully, thanks. I am very grateful to you for this script.

Nice :)
Could you answer for following questions?
1) Do actors voices work?
2) Do you've got 2 DVD version?
Thanks in advance for your informations :)

Hello NSLW,

- In your script, you install completly F.E.A.R 2 (Steam and game) if Steam is not installed.
- If F.E.A.R 2 is already install in Steam, you adapt the Steam Version.

But, how you install the game if Steam is installed and not the game? :)
Because, i have installed Steam with the Tinou's script for Counter-Strike 1.6.

I did a manual installation and I choose the Steam Prefix (Steam script) and i can install the game in this Prefix thanks to the Setup.exe in the CDROM.

You can add this option in your script no?

Berillions

But, how you install the game if Steam is installed and not the game? :)

You start your Steam installed earlier and install F.E.A.R2 in this Steam then you start my script which creates shortcuts for F.E.A.R 2 and prepares prefix which doesn't contain FEAR but it's its environment.

I did a manual installation and I choose the Steam Prefix (Steam script) and i can install the game in this Prefix thanks to the Setup.exe in the CDROM.

Does then F.E.A.R 2 shows in your Steam window?

If i install F.E.A.R2 after to start Steam, Steam download the game entierly, it's very long if you are a low connection.

For me it's doesn't work. Steam doesn't download the game at the end of the preparation of files.

So with my method, it's quicker because I install the game thanks to the DVD. The game has a size of 12Go. But, before the installation, you must copy the 2DVD in a TEMP folder because i can't eject the first DVD when the installation ask me to insert the Second DVD. I have an error message told me that the first dvd is used.

Does then F.E.A.R 2 shows in your Steam window?

I test and i edit my message.

Do that appears when installing via my modified POL script?

Does DVD installation requires Steam or can it be installed without Steam and why do you installed it in Steam wineprefix and not in separate wineprefix?

BTW. If you've got legal copy of game then could you give here labels of your two DVDs?
Thanks in advance.

No, i have this message when i did a manual installation. i'm going to try by editing your script.

Yes, i have a legal copy of game. How to get the labels for my two DVDs?

On Fedora it's the name under the DVD is mounted in /media directory. On others distro you may want to start K3B or Brasero and choose copy disc, then you'll have exact disc label.

Ok, in frugalware -current when i insert the DVD, it's mounted in /media directory.

/media/disk_1 for the first DVD
/media/disk_2 for the second DVD

I try to install the game in other prefix thanks to your script. When i launch Steam to prepare the installation files, wine wants to download and install gecko.
But after her installation, wine is stopped and the installation of Fear 2 not begin.... :^^:

My script does start Setup.exe and not Steam. Does starting Setup.exe causes Steam to start?

When you launch Setup.exe in the First DVD you must:
- To install Steam
- To connect on Steam with your login/password
- and only after, the F.E.A.R 2's installation begin.

That clarified me a lot of things and I modified my script according to your info, but I lack only one: F.E.A.R 2 downloaded from Steam is in
Program Files/Steam/steamapps/common/fear2
Does F.E.A.R 2 from DVD installs itself also in that path? If not then please give me the correct path. Thanks in advance.

BTW. Does Steam work good with latest Wine? I ask because I seen post saying it works and POL assigns very old version to it.

Edited by NSLW

1- If you install F.E.A.R.2 with the DVD, the game is also installed in Program Files/Steam/steamapps/common/fear2.

2- Steam work good with the latest version of Wine (1.1.31, i don't know the 1.1.32), for me.

So i think my script is finished. Now it waits till somebody test it. Thanks Berillions for your help :)

i will try your script with the install from DVD :)

Edit : It's very strange but the Steam's update is very very long...

Edited by Berillions

What does it update?

This update after to launch F.E.A.R.2 Setup :
