updated first post. No need for the hacked DXVK build anymore. Nvidia users just need to spoof their GPU as AMD, so the game takes different path for sRGB stuff that is broken with nvidia path. Its because Only nvidia hardware supports that outdated sRGB read method, but vulkand doesnt have any equivalent for this.

Hi guys,

I used to love WAR, played it at launch through till it died at which point I crawled back to WoW where my mates were.

Anyway, just wanted to pop in and say that I tried various things over a couple of weeks to get Return of Reckoning working on my Linux Mint laptop to no avail, also tried on my Mac Pro (the work machine) again with no luck.

I had given up before I decided I really should check the forums and found this thread which prompted me to just format and install a different distro.

Ubuntu 20.04 with wine staging (5.7) just worked first go and I am very excited to come back to the game!

So thank you all for just talking about RoR on Linux because seeing recent posts from people doing it kept me enthused, see you on the battle field :)

Hello everybody,

I hope you are doing well. From my side, since the latest update, I'm not able to play using wine. Launcher run smiithly, excepted wehn I clic on start, which does nothing/crash the launcher.

Anyone have the same issue ?

Thanks in advance.

Kind regards

crash like the launcher is closing? Lutris?
go to the warahammer configuration in lutris, take the System options tab. find environment variables and remove -all from the WINEDEBUG.
then right click on Warhammer and show logs and press play. See if any weird errors show up on the log. paste them here.

it works perfectly fine for me after just replacing the RoRLauncher.exe

Can confirm, works like a charm just replacing the .exe on the Lutris folder for RoR.

I am running RoR using dxvk. Everything works fine with the exception of the launcher. I applied the exception to use the builtin d3d9 for the launcher, but it is black still.
