Defenders quest

• PlayOnLinux 4.2.2-dev

  • Tested with Wine 1.5.31
  • Install path: GOG Games/Defender's Quest/
  • Shortcuts:
    • Defender's Quest ["DefendersQuest.exe" ]
  • Clicks do not always make it, you have to leave the button pressed
    • but sometimes the order is not done (but psy points removed!)
    • does not seem to happen with Wine 1.4.1?
  • Music sometimes forget to stop, so you hear several overlapped musics while playing
    • Not fixed by installing dsound
    • Fixed by downgrading to Wine 1.4.1 (!)
    • Seems to only happen with 1.5.31, did not happen with any version tested, up to 1.5.30

• Instructions to install on Linux: http://www.defendersquest.com/linux.html

  • The 2.5y old Adobe Air installer that doesn't come as a package requires root access, ahah

• Instructions to convert Linux Demo version + GOG version => Linux version: https://kweepeer.wordpress.com/2012/11/14/play-gog-version-of-defenders-quest-on-linux/

  • Basically, (untested) replace "share" subdir of the demo version with the one of the full game, and rename the executable from bin/DefendersQuestDEMO to bin/DefendersQuest. Renaming game's directory from DefendersQuestDemo to DefendersQuest is probably also a good idea to update it later using tarballs.

• PlayOnLinux 4.2.5-dev

  • Tested with Wine 1.6.2
  • Install path GOG Games/Defender's Quest/
  • Shortcuts:
    • Defender's Quest ["DefendersQuest.exe" ]
  • Music does not stop when switching screens, and overlaps occur (not always). Even simpler: intro music self overlaps!
    • Wine 1.6, 1.6.2, 1.7.0, 1.7.8, 1.7.11, 1.7.12: Music does not stop
    • Wine 1.4.1, 1.7.13, 1.7.15, 1.7.25: works correctly
  • Wine 1.7.0: waves unstack, but monsters forgot to spawn! Happened only once
