HOWTO Ubuntu + ATI + Regnum

[ilcontegis]

Hi everybody as i tried a lot to make work regnumonline under ubuntu with an ati radeon i want that also others can play at this great game.

1. install the game following the instructions
http://www.regnumonline.com.ar/forum/showthread.php?t=1617
2. install the official ati drivers
3. start the game and put in advanced graphic options everithing to the minimum.
4. the game will start :) but obviously the graphic details will be minimal.
5. starting from this point move up the settings in the advanced graphic option window, till the maximum that your ATI support before it crash.
This is the image of how I did. Leaving the setting like this is the maximum that i can support with my gc..if I put more i crash.

To my shame I must say that I don't see the "trick" there. Is it the adjustment of the graphic settings step by step? Or what do you mean?

[ilcontegis]
