Searches come up > with a lot of references, but nothing in detail. Have a look at /usr/ports/games/HeroesOfMightAndMagic for an example. Additionally, my experience with CivCTP was to ignore the CD's install script and instead copy the files manually. After installation, flag the executable as coming from a Linux system using % brandelf -t Linux civctp Of course, this assumes that Linux emulation is enabled and that you have all the dependencies installed. Note that I had some issues running this game as an unpriviledged user but haven't bothered to figure out why. Cheers.
