Scripts for Steam games

Tuesday 27 October 2009 at 11:55

Hello everyone!

Those of you who wander the forum may have noticed topics about several scripts for Steam games. The scripts were in test stage for a long time but are now ready for daily use. These scripts configure the following games:

- Half-Life 2
- Half-Life 2: Episode 1
- Half-Life 2: Episode 2
- Half-Life 2: Lost Coast
- Portal
- Team Fortress 2
- Counter Strike: Source

This last script is only an update of the previously available script for Counter Strike : Source with, in addition, a few bug fixes.
Compared to a standard installation, these Steam scripts bring an even easier installation as well as better performances, because we did select the best suited version of Wine for each game.

I want to thank in particular Obi1-46 for his graphic work (that you can see in the installers) as well as BlondVador, Panzer, Obi1-46 (one more time) and everybody else for their very exhaustive tests that allowed me to improve the scripts, and NSLW for pointing out a careless mistake of mine.

From now on, you will find these scripts directly in PlayOnLinux's "Install" menu.

A few screenshots:
