A Valley Without Wind 1 & 2 / Re: Linux?

« on: September 29, 2011, 01:48:53 AM »

Just updated wine to 1.3.29 as well as my prebuilt 32 bit libs and now the game is running for me now !  So whatever my problem was it was either fixed in wine or the libs.

A Valley Without Wind 1 & 2 / Linux?

« on: September 27, 2011, 03:34:23 PM »

Has anyone else had any luck getting the game to run via wine in Linux?  My game just opens up the game window and displays the initial load dialog before crashing with an error about the garbage collection thread.  I'm using Gentoo linux and wine version 1.3.28 and AI War and Tidalis have no problem.  I'm just curious if it's a problem with my wine set up or if it's something that wine itself just doesn't handle properly at the moment.

A Valley Without Wind 1 & 2 / Strageic resources

« on: September 27, 2011, 03:31:03 PM »

Is there any reason each settlement has its own strategic resource pool?  Since at the moment you can effectively move around the resources to where you need them without taking any strategic turns and it's just tedious micro management.  It'd be much nicer if all the settlements just pulled from and deposited to a global pool and would be much easier for the player to keep track of.  And along the same lines just have the player also share from the pool so they don't have to drop off resources and pull them out when needed.
