Curse

I am trying to run GW in linux. I am using Wine (and the front end playonlinux). I have been able to install the game just fine and it runs. However i dont feel that my graphics are where they would be if i was in windows.

It is very choppy, i can not choose my resolution other than in a window, can not change the size of the window, and have had to lower some of my settings where before in windows everything was max.. I am using an 8800 GTS by Nvidia, with an AMD6000+ proc and 2 Gigs of Ram.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I'm having the same problem..
I used to play with all max in windows, but now it's lowest with uber lag..
Kinda quit GW because of that... I don't think it can ever run smooth..

For as long as ive been using Linux on one of my old computers.

Guild Wars has never been able to run smoothly, regardless of wine or linux updates, the more frustrating thing is that no one really knows why.

So guess you have to put up with it and hope that someday someone will have a fix for it...
