Wine CD version last published 4 years agoThis game needs a virtual desktop, enable virtual desktop in Lutris and set the resolution to 1024x768.
This game runs directly from CD. There are three CD's and the game will prompt for insertion of the next CD. In case you use CD images (iso), follow the following procedure to change out CD's.
A program called Disks is very handy here as it lets you enter the parameters for mounting the three CD images.
Open Disks and add the CD images by the two following actions:
- Clicking in the menu button with the three dots,
- clicking Attach Disk Image.
Select the image to add it to the list. Do this for all three CD images.
For each image, select the added image from the list and click on the options button under the volume. Make sure you select the right partition, the second CD image has three, the last one being the one to mount.
In the menu click Edit Mount Options.
Deselect Mount at system startup
Select Show in user interface
Deselect Require additional authorisation to mount
Display name: CDROM
Icon Name: drive-cdrom
Symbolic Icon Name: drive-cdrom
Mount point /mnt/BORG1 or /mnt/BORG2 or /mnt/BORG3 (one for each drive)
Label: LABEL=BORG1 or LABEL=BORG2 or LABEL=BORG3 (one for each drive)
Mount the images by clicking the play button.
Run the installer and select Disk 1 where Setup.exe is located.
The installer uses binary 0 and 1 instead of no and yes.
When the installer finishes you can play the game.
When the game asks for the next CD do the following:
Click Wine Configuration in Lutris. The Wine Configuration window will open inside the virtual desktop. Click on the Drives tab and find the CD drive. It points to /mnt/BORG1. Click on the drive letter and change the path to /mnt/BORG2. Click Ok and in game click 1 (one). The procedure is the same for the third disk.
Star Trek: Borg is an interactive movie PC game and audiobook set in the Star Trek universe. It was written by Hilary Bader, directed by James L. Conway, and featured an original score by Dennis McCarthy. It was released in 1996 by Simon & Schuster for PC and Macintosh.
In the midst of a Borg invasion ten years after the Battle of Wolf 359, Starfleet Cadet Qaylan Furlong is given an opportunity by Q (John de Lancie) to go back in time and prevent his father's death in the historic battle.
Q sends Qaylan to the USS Righteous, his father's Excelsior class starship, just before the Battle of Wolf 359. Originally, the ship's security officer Coris Sprint was killed by a Borg intruder over four hours before the battle. Q gives Qaylan control of Sprint's body at this point, allowing him to change history. Since Sprint is Bijani (a heretofore unseen alien race) he has the ability to go into a "Bijani Pain Trance" which allows him to complete jobs even when feeling immense pain. This plot device later becomes an important part of the story.
Meanwhile, Q takes over the role of Dr. Thaddeus Quint, whose personality is similar to Q's.
At several points throughout the game, the player (Qaylan) is given multiple choices about what actions should be taken in various situations. Each action has a correct choice and several wrong choices. If the wrong choice is made the game either ends (e.g., ship destruction), or is re-routed back to the choice point (e.g., told to try again). In cases where the game ends, Q will reset time and allow the player to try again. It is often necessary to fail (and die) in order to gain information and then utilize Q's power to "reset" time to put that information to use. If the player makes too many mistakes, however, Q becomes bored and the game ends.
