In order to play eq under wine with dual core you need to start it with the following command. Found this on the wineHQ site:
Code:
taskset -c 0 wine eqgame.exe patchme
I tried the game at first with just wine eqgame.exe patchme and it did play but was a bit slower than when I ran the above command. So I just created a script in my EQ directory called "start" that contains the above command.
then I just run eq by typing ./start in my eq directory.
The command just binds the game to one cpu. So I guess if you wanted to you may be able to run another instance of the game on the second cpu by using:
Code:
taskset -c 1 wine eqgame.exe patchme
From a separate EQ Titanium install of course.
Hopefully further testing will give us some concrete answers as to why these things are happening.
