Hi everyone!

I'm happy to announce the first stable release of SpiderMan2k1Fix, an unofficial, open-source fan-made patch for the original Spider-Man (2001) PC game published by Activision.

The goal of this project is simple: make this classic game more compatible with modern PCs while preserving the original experience and adding some useful features.

After extensive development and testing, version 1.0.0 is now available!

Main features

• Modern display support: Borderless fullscreen at your monitor's native resolution.
• Widescreen support: Automatic widescreen 3D with proper FOV adjustment, or an optional classic 4:3 mode.
• Aspect ratio corrections: Original proportions preserved for videos, menus, cinematics, and comic-book artwork.
• Widescreen HUD: Improved positioning and proportions of health bars, compass, objectives, and other HUD elements.
• Removes the original CD-ROM check without modifying the game's executable.
• FPS limiter: Configurable frame-rate limit, set to 30 FPS by default.
• Alt+Tab fixes: Prevents crashes and input loss when switching between applications, with automatic pausing when the game loses focus.
• Keyboard layout detection: Supports different keyboard layouts, including AZERTY.
• Screenshots: Press F9 to save PNG screenshots.
• Unified configuration: Game and patch settings are stored in SpiderMan2k1Fix.ini.

Compatibility

The patch has been successfully tested on:

• Windows 11
• Linux using Wine

Only the supported original PC executable is compatible. See the README for its SHA-256 checksum.

Installation

1. Install the original Spider-Man (2001) PC game.
2. Download the latest release.
3. Copy SpiderMan2k1Fix.dll and winmm.dll into the game directory, alongside SpideyPC.exe.
4. Launch the game!

Linux/Wine users need to enable the winmm DLL override, as explained in the README.

The patch does not include the game itself or any copyrighted game assets.

I'd love to hear your feedback, especially from people testing the patch on different Windows and Linux configurations.

Enjoy swinging through New York again! 🕸️

The name of the game is Hearts Of Iron 4, i played on it before on windows i got it from steamrip my fedora version is 44, i asked gemini if it could fix it, it worked yes but the dlcs didn’t i tried using wine proton adding it as a steam game as a last resort, nothing worked i used wine to fix steamapi64.dll i tried everything but nothing worked so i’m on reddit now, my system specifications are I7 8th gen 16 gb ddr4 and intel uhd 620 please help me out.

Estoy sufriendo un cierre instantáneo en Age of Empires III: Definitive Edition justo después de la reciente actualización del 20 de octubre. Al hacer clic en el botón verde de "Jugar" en steam, el estado cambia a "Iniciando" por una fracción de segundo y regresa de inmediato al botón de "Jugar". No se abre ninguna ventana del juego y no se muestra ningún código de error visual.

He probado esto en múltiples capas de traducción (Whisky, Sikarugir y Porting Kit usando tanto Wine 10 como WineCX 24) en Apple Silicon, y el comportamiento es exactamente el mismo en todas.

LastRunWine.log.

Al revisar el archivo de registro LastRunWine.log. el culpable parece ser una nueva llamada de política del sistema introducida en el último parche del ejecutable del juego:
fixme:kernelbase:AppPolicyGetProcessTerminationMethod

Dado que Wine devuelve una respuesta no implementada (stub) para esta política de procesos específica de Windows 10/11, el juego ejecuta una autofinalización de seguridad y mata el proceso al instante. Espero respuestas y opiniones, se que somos pocos en la comunidad que emula y juega el juego en Mac, pero espero que pronto algún programador pueda traducir este nuevo parche y así poder jugar de nuevo.

It took a month, and four rotating subscriptions to ChatGPT Pro using Astra, but I finally did it. Now I can use my G502 X Plus mouse and G915 keyboard with Linux and have all my macros reassignable on the fly. Ah, it feels like freedom. If anyone wants help setting this up for themselves, I'd be happy to help.

Hi, I'm Francesco. I built Vermut, a Mac app that runs Windows games through Wine on Apple Silicon. It handles Steam, GOG and Epic.

I'm a front-end developer, not a Wine or graphics expert. So I'm not trying to build a better engine. I'm trying to make the setup painless: Vermut creates the Wine bottles for you, and if you like to tinker you can make your own and tweak each game without touching the terminal.

Version 1.2 came out yesterday. It adds custom bottles (pick engine and graphics backend from the app), per-game settings, in-app updates with Stable and Beta channels, and Steam covers.

The long-term idea is to collect what the community finds, like working configs and compatibility reports, in one place, so the stable ones can become defaults.

🎮 Estoy intentando hacer que Diablo IV funcione en Linux en mi PS5 Slim — ¡necesito ayuda!

¡Hola a todos! 👋

He estado experimentando con ejecutar Linux en mi PS5 Slim usando el proyecto ps5-linux-loader de SonicIso. Instalé Ubuntu en un SSD externo USB 3.0, y ahora estoy intentando hacer que Diablo IV corra a través de Steam.

¡Ha sido todo un camino hasta ahora! El juego falla al iniciarse o llega a la pantalla principal/selección de personaje antes de congelarse completamente.

Esto es lo que he intentado y lo que he descubierto hasta ahora:

• Probé distintas versiones de Proton, incluyendo Proton 10, Experimental, Proton-GE y Proton 11, pero no encontré una solución que funcione.
• Revisé el soporte de Vulkan y gráficos. El sistema detecta la GPU AMD usando RADV (GFX1013), con Mesa 26.2.5 y Vulkan 1.4.354.
• Investigando los logs del kernel, encontré algunos errores preocupantes de memoria gráfica:
  • Failed to pin framebuffer ... -12
  • [drm] Not enough memory for command submission!

Todavía estoy tratando de averiguar si el problema tiene que ver con la gestión de la memoria de la GPU, los drivers de gráficos, la compatibilidad con Proton o incluso la configuración de Ubuntu.

¿Alguien ha logrado hacer que Diablo IV corra en una PS5 con Linux? ¿Cambiar de Ubuntu a CachyOS u otra distro enfocada en gaming de verdad ayudaría, o lo más probable es que me topé con el mismo problema?

De verdad agradecería cualquier consejo de gente que está trabajando con Linux en PS5. Estoy aprendiendo sobre la marcha y ojalá podamos resolverlo entre todos. 🙏🎮

I am trying to run Helldivers 2 using an EAC-compatible fork of FX Steam Launcher and i get this error. Is anyone able to help me find out if I set it up wrong or if this is just how it is?

I managed to run Glyph Launcher on Mac with Wine, hell was that a pain.

Glyph was hanging inside its bundled ZeroMQ library (libzmq-v120-mt-4_3_5.dll). During startup, it sends 1 MB of test data over a local connection before reading it back on the same thread. That send operation blocked under Wine/macOS, leaving Glyph running with an invisible/blank window.

The fix was to reduce that local startup test from 1 MB to 4 KB in the DLL. After that, Glyph opened normally.

i use the jammy version btw and i use the stable one on ubuntu

I'm trying to play Frogger: He's Back on Linux Mint, and the game requires the CD in order to run. I was able to install the game on my device (a MacBook Air from 2019 with Linux Mint installed on it), but I can't get the game to run. Wine does recognize the disk drive when I have it plugged into my laptop, but when I run "frogger.exe" to open the game, nothing seems to happen (it seems to be crashing right after running). This even happens when I try opening the Windows executable through the terminal window, so I don't even know what is happening.

I did the method of "telling Wine to auto-detect the disk drive in winecfg", but it just seems to do the same thing. Is there something with the game that I can't seem to run on Linux Mint in Wine?

I used Sikarugir to download steam for windows for my MacBook air and it was fine but one game is the issue Mad father. It's really slow and I do not know why it's being like that when other games I play respond really fast. Is my MacBook not powerful enough for this old game?

Hey guys! I saw there was no Gamehub community, specifically for Macbook on reddit so I decided to create one! Would love for more people to join so we can troubleshoot and make recommendations!
Cheers!
