Trying to get glamour to run on linux.

Using Lutris it loads fine, but after only a couple minutes it freezes and I can't do anything, close it, have to start from the beginning and it does it again. Any thoughts?

I don't see any Linux release of Glamour, so I guess the game runs on Lutris through Wine TkG.
I haven't tested this game, but I remember that I had to add the "-force-opengl" option to run Big Brother (a game made by the same author and with the same engine). Something like that:
Code:
wine start /unix path/to/BB_folder/BigBrother.exe -force-opengl
Alternatively:
Code:
cd /path/to/BB_folder
wine ./BigBrother.exe -force-opengl
Without that option the game behaved like you said: it started and then froze.

Edit: if it doesn't work, search for Linux both in BB and Glamour threads.

I'll try it...I am not sure what causes it, if it's a dependency or something, or if it's that connection glamour makes, it is so silky smooth on lutris, it's too slow thru VB to even play imo....so I gave up on that lol...

Same thing happens, only so many clicks and it just won't let you do anything......i'll post the log in case it helps you or anyone,
