Nox under Wine / Fedora 16
I decided to get Nox from gog.com
cd ~
mkdir .wine-nox
WINEPREFIX=~/.wine-nox/ wine ~/setup_nox.exe
WINEPREFIX=~/.wine-nox/ winecfg
and configure the wine desktop as exactly 1024×768
Start nox
WINEPREFIX=~/.wine-nox/ wine ~/.wine-nox/drive_c/Program\ Files/GOG.com/NOX/NOX.EXE
After the intro go in to the settings and change the game screen size to 1024×768.
Now everything is running 🙂
I created a bash script to start nox next time
#!/bin/bash
WINEPREFIX=~/.wine-nox/ wine ~/.wine-nox/drive_c/Program\ Files/GOG.com/NOX/NOX.EXE
I created the desktop file ~/.local/share/applications/nox.desktop
as this

Yo, thanks I’m glad to get this to work, I couldn’t get a display going.
