This did not work for me at all, just like all the other advice I’ve taken thus far. I just want to give up on this.

THANKS!!! Guild wars was running choppy even it was 70 fps.
This registry “UseGLSL”=”disabled” works and now the game runs very smooth

With the newest version of wine (1.1.5) and Ubuntu 8.04 I am receiving errors. I’m using the fglrx driver which is apparently causing the game to crash. (Look at WineHQ) Please update this article with a fix for this problem when one comes around. As for now I’m stuck because the only way to work around this, from what I understand, is to compile wine from source and edit out two lines. I’m a noob and this is a little to much for me.

Same here, it was running fine before, but FPS were very low and responsiveness just wasn’t there. Now there are just a few hicups now and then, getting around 30 fps (vs about 45 on Windows) and it’s totally playable.
