it involves having VMWARE installed on your pc

then running a linux OS inside it (in a window)

then install war2combat there


to install war2combat on linux you need an app called WINE

if you are a newbie at linux you will need to do lots of goggling on how to:

1.- install wine
2.- install graphics drivers for the linux os


i tried lots of linux OSes about 2 years ago trying to execute warcraft and none
of them worked at a playable speed. game was all choppy

but tupac claimed recently he was running it fine so u better ask him


edit: apparently its SuSe OS you need to download

God did you read what he posted???

How to play in windowed mode in Win 7!!

lmao. No need to linux/blah blah...


Just get a virtual machine installed (windows xp is best as its lightweight) and install war2 in it.

You can use the excellent virtualbox (https://www.virtualbox.org/) and mouse can be set not to leave the virtual machine window.

I could link you with a copy of microxp (100mb installed I think) or you can google it or use your own windows xp copy. Its pretty easy to setup. I tried it but playing on a 640*480 screen windowed on a full HD screen monitor suxs major ass!

Yeah don't make a VM for just that reason. USA-Feature made a thread to a working window mode for war2 search for it.
