Soo, I'm looking way to open and run CC in Ubuntu 7.04, 'cause my Windows XP crashed...

Please help! Cortex Command is such a nice game!

Run winecfg, go to the sound tab, and set it to OSS and Emulation. CC should work fine after that. Oh, and you'll need a recent version of WINE, in case Ubuntu hasn't updated yet, which they usually haven't.
(link to a .deb for newest WINE version)

Thanks...

But, it's not working? Should you start it with some command at Terminal?

I guess that would work, just copy the errors it forwards to the terminal, and paste them here.

Myname@MyDesktop:~$ wine Cortex Command
wine: could not load L"c:\\windows\\system32\\Cortex.exe

That's the problem...

Well, are you in the working directory? It should be something like:
wine /home/myuser/Games/Cortex\ Command\ B14/Cortex\ Command.exe
Or, if you're already in the working directory:
wine Cortex\ Command.exe

The backslashes are used before spaces so the terminal doesn't interpret the location incorrectly.

Ok, now Cortex is moaning: "Assertion Failed: Failed to open data file /base/settings.ini"

Meeh.

Reinstall CC?

Yeah, the best way is to download the installer and install it with wine. I haven't had any problems with the installer. That way you get a entry in your start menu "Menu>Wine>Programs>Cortex Command Test Build". Then you don't have to start it with the terminal (Remember to run "wineboot" after you installed CC so that you get the correct entrys in the Desktop menu)

If you still have problems or you get it to work please post your results here: http://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?iVersionId=8116
