i have 1 bigfish game install and plays fine.

but do i have to keep reinstall the bfgclient for every bigfish game ?
i keep running into admin right on the second game to install.

I couldn't figure out how to use winetrick -q ie6.

so i just install ie6 , copy&rename the wineprefix , and change the launch.
then install the bigfish game. a little work but that was fine for 1 time.
I have over 10 bigfish games.

okay i figure out way to install other bigfish games in the same prefix.
i move the small exe to bigfish wineprefix folder , change launch to small exe.
run it change it back to bfgclient.exe.

just dont change tabs downloads failed on me.

to bad playonlinux doesn't have a run command. run exe in that prefix.

Install -> Unsupported apps -> Existing prefix

And for ie6 : Install -> Other -> PlayOnLinux functions (no need to use winetricks :-])

It will be more clear for POL v4

So long ago to be resurrecting this thread, but how did you install BFG in the first place? I have tried to install both 'Plants versus Zombies' and the BF games manager, both get as far as the login screen, input name, pass, click, hang ...same result in wine - perhaps it's a version thing?

 

Ubuntu 12.04.01 LTS, POL 4.2.5

Necromancy.... bad. lol.

Please start another thread and post appropriately, according to the forum rules. We need FULL computer specs and debug output to troubleshoot your issue, but ressurecting a dead thread and still not adding that info...... yeah. Don't do that. :)

Ha Ha!  Necromancy good wink

I don't see a new thread for Big Fish client.  I've never successfully installed & launched a game  through it.
