Hello. I have low performance in old DirectX7 game (Aliens vs Predator 2) on Windows. Can Wine ddraw windows build help me with my problem? I'v tried WineD3DForWindows, but compiled build is old and game shows only menu with glitches.

A query regarding WINE support for older hardware: Does Wine support the NVIDIA 7186 drivers, or are they too old and unsupported now? Following on from this post - http://forum.winehq.org/viewtopic.php?t=7509 and http://forum.winehq.org/viewtopic.php?t=6574&highlight=rome+total+war I've been playing around a bit. I've tried without installing DX9 as well as using Winetricks to

...has found any Glide wrappers that work well with WINE as it stands, or if there's any possible way to get DirectX 6/7's Direct3d to pass through to OpenGL and my hardware acelleration in my current configuration? (as I'm also having problems with Wing Commander: Secret Ops, which is DX7) I am not subscribed to the list, and would appreciate being CCed on any replies. -- Malcolm D.

...to bypass the new DirectX 10's annoying 'feature' of software accelerating any programs that use DX8 or lower. I makes playing some older games either impossible or impossibly slow, even with software acceleration. I downloaded WineD3D with the intention of installing the older DX8 adn DX7 binaries figuring DX to OGL translation would still be faster on a new Geforce than your modern quad core processor but cannot install it on W7 x64. I've ran safemode, and taken ownership/set access control enabled for all (including users) on the applicable dll files and ran as admin with UAC...

As most Wine users probably know, running applications using Wine won't (in most cases) give you the same performance as running the application in native Windows. From my experience this is especially true when it comes to applications that make use of Direct3D, and I suppose the performance drop is (at least in part) due to the translation of Direct3D to OpenGL in Wine. Now, this got me

Hello! I'm trying to run Sacred Underworld game in Wine, it works almost fine (especially with latest Wine 0.9.17 where DX7 was fixed), until it crash in libGL.so. According to attached log file, process crashes in glTexImage2D() function. I think this is problem in proprietary NVidia driver and post the report on NVidia Linux forum and NVidia Linux support. Unfortunately, there was no replies. Any ideas? Maybe it is...

...on. comctl32: Move the getting of the DC outside of ANIMATE_DrawFrame. Roderick Colenbrander (5): wined3d: Make sure to set the color key when it is needed including for index_in_alpha. wined3d: Reload the palette on a color key change. This fixes the ddex4/ddex5 samples from the dx7 sdk. wined3d: Allow read back of P8 surfaces. This fixes some of the redrawing issues in Red Alert. wined3d: Redownload the surface data in case of a palette change. This fixes a lot of redrawing problems in Red Alert. wined3d: Upload p8 palette using GL_ALPHA instead of GL_RED....
