Graphics card: Nvidia Geforce GTX480

Comments:
- Game launcher never detect more than 3Gb of RAM with wine, just ignore the warning
- Sound do not work with game's movies
- Disable non-mandatory effects will save precious fps
- Using mouse cause mini-lags, annoying but still playable





EDIT :
I've decided to not support this game anymore, the game is broken for now and I have no intention to fix it in the future, thus it's no more available. Thread locked.

Have a good game :sunglasses:

Obviously not the place to post this, I guess, but PoM is fantastic! Otherwise, I've installed Tera, and the only problem I run into is after logging into the game, I hit the 'Play' button and a dialog box comes up saying this application cannot run on a virtual machine. It doesn't sound like this is a problem with wine or PoM...but I have no proof either way. Thought it might help to mention.

No luck for me on this one... love this game and wish I wasn't always booting into Windows to play it.

Installation goes fine, but with both WINE 1.5.5 and 1.5.2-OpenDesktop via POL script I get "Failed to initialize launcher" when starting the launcher.

openSUSE 12.1, x64.

Hi,

download THIS and extract it in the GAME folder (where the game exe is), this should fix this issue.

Hi,

download [url=http://files.playonlinux.com/TERA_Wine_Fix.zip]THIS[/url] and extract it in the GAME folder (where the game exe is), this should fix this issue.

Ok, so the game launcher have been updated and is not working with wine anymore...sad news...

Since this game need a monthly fee, I will have to wait until next "free-to-play" week-end to try to fix this issue...

The game will fall back in Testing section for now, sorry :/

Understood, thanks for trying. I don't even get to the point where I login, though. Are you able to get to the login prompt?

I'm able to start the launcher, but I'm still getting that xml parse error (even with including xmllite.dll in the game folder / systems32 / etc)

What's weird is that when I first started trying it, I was able to start loading the game, but since I was having problems with my graphics card I couldn't get any further, and I haven't been able to get past this xml parse thing since.

I have found a Free Private server

http://teraonline.org/

It's Russian but playable with some bugs

did somebody really play at this 'russian' serveur already? thus the MMO is intending to have a very potent social conversations, so how on an earth do you suppose to participate within with ppl whom chatting with wildly unknown language? unless you do decide to learn some russian for some reason, lol merci :)

is there a something new with a game?

Has this issue been addressed in a recent release of wine/POL?
The game is free up to level 20, so you don't have to wait on a free to play weekend. There won't be anymore. Thanks in advance for any feedback.

Hi,

Since release of patch 3.0 the game launcher totally rely on .NET 4.x routines and this do not work well (not at all) with wine. We will do our best to try to make it work again as soon as possible.

So does that mean it's better to not install it yet? =P

Is there a way to get around the .NET routines?          

Hmm... strange, my launcher works perfect as of today if I use the wine-guildwars2 version of wine on POL, no connection errors on it. but the game itself fails to start probably because It needs the OpenInputDesktop fix which seems to be missing in the gw2 version.

Maybe someone could provide a modified wine package/POL file with both fixes included?

Btw: the game is going f2p on February 5th, also if you purchased the game before, you get "founder" account status which basically has most f2p limits gone.

Hello.

Inquire is there a something new with a game?

thank you

yep, confirming, launcher and loging in works fine with guildwars2 wine version (awsomium patch), but needs openinputdestop patch as well to be able to select play from launcher.
would be nice to get an updated PoL wine package for both awsomium and openinputdesktop patched wine.

RobyIndie asked for a Wine 1.4.1-Tera: http://www.playonmac.com/en/issue-1913.html

why such an old wine version i wonder.

but thanks, i will give it a try as soon as possible

edit: it works but fps is super low and seems it doesnt pull gpu into load at all.

CPU is pretty high load, in fact 3 cores near 100% each

Try to close the launcher after the banner shows up. Helped a lot in my case. The game runs pretty good even on my ancient rig.
