okay i got it to work *kind of*
steam runs, but theres all sorts of visual distortions when im playing and i get half the FPS than i do in cedega
oh, and dx9 doesnt run, so the water looks like trash, and it crashes whenever theres to much action happening at once
edit: rebooted and now it runs just fine ^_^
now i can probably close my transgaming account
lol thanks macdude
