This makes may day; it actually makes my week! I can't believe the genius wine developers have implemented subpixel font anti-aliasing in 1.1.12! All the apps look 100 times better now! I have opened Word 2003 about 10 times today just to look at the new beautiful UI! I have waited for this ever since I started using wine (~ 2006). This is my personal wine day! Thank so much, wine developers

CoD: Black Ops - Runs Slow On Good Computer? Hi, Here is my system: - Ubuntu 10.10 32bit Linux - 3.0GHz Intel Core2Quad Extreme 4-core - 8GB DDR2 RAM - nVidia GeForce GT 240 1GB DDR5 - Current Wine 1.3.7 Game uses only Direct X 9 so am puzzled as to the poor performance? Any tips to make it run faster? (other than a faster computer) Thanks! Jesse

Hello everybody... My patch to add advanced d3d settings in winecfg is almost ready. In fact, i only have to figure out how to detect video memory size to display it when no key is set to force it or to reset. Stefan D told me to use DirectDraw, but i wouldn't find. So that is the last thing (except some better naming...) to do for this patch. Everything works well and i would like some

Hello everybody. I'm a (quite) happy WINE user, but i would like to propose some things to the WINE developers. Something important imo, is that it must be easy to use for the user, and some things could be better, here are some ideas to improve it by using Winecfg: 1. Add an option to disable/enable/edit debug channels for all programs. As you may know, a lot of programs runs faster

Hi! Wine's development is fast, but a lot of new games (and other programs) needs to patch Wine to get them working, even if most of the time the patches are not really patches, but only made to let it work... And as compiling is quite difficult for new users, and annoying for a lot of people, if you would use a dll compiled by a patched wine, would it work by simply using this new dll? Then

Hi! I use Ubuntu 8.10 and when a program wants to add a shortcut on the desktop, it create a .lnk file, is this a bug or not? Is it maybe because there's no "Desktop" folder in my home directory, but a localized directory (Bureau in french), but it is correctly set in winecfg! Thanks.

Hello! Now i'm using Wine since 2 years and i always played GTA San Andreas with Wine, together with other games. Every Wine version is getting better and better and i saw a lot of games working simply by waiting it was implemented... Wine is now IMO becoming good for new games, they are more and more supported, less things to patch... But games are working, but getting slower and slower! A

Hello! When trying to install CoD4 from the DVD, the installation works pretty well, i disagree to install DirectX and PunkBuster, and when finishing i get following error: http://img89.imageshack.us/my.php?image=capturegz7.png I don't know if it's a bug, error or both, but it seems like it is installed, so i tried to launch multiplayer. Then i get following on my screen:

Hi! I received Far Cry 2 to try it and i tested it under wine 1.1.7 The install works, but securom not (a bug has already been filled in), and the game starts with a crack! I had to add some dll's and disable dxgi, but that's not a huge problem. When launching single player, it works and i am ~ 8 seconds ingame, but then it shutds down... In my output i can see this 100 times:

Hello everybody! I try to get Far Cry 2 running since it came out, but it still doesn't work. The game installs without any problems... The game loads when pbuffer is used as rendering mode, but doesn't load when fbo is used. When i try to start the single player campaign (with pbuffer), i can see the map for about 5 seconds, then it will crash too (and it looks bad) To find the cause,

Hello! Today i tried to launch BF2 with following config: Ubuntu Intrepid 8.10 Wine 1.1.10 Geforce 9800GT Latest nvidia driver in repository (177.82) I applied a crack (that's working on windows) and copied following dlls in the BF2 directory: d3dx9_25 and d3dx9_36, as they are needed to run the game! When i run it in fullscreen mode (wine), it crashes on a black screen, here's the

Hello! I was running Mandriva 3 weeks ago and I had installed Call of Duty 4, and it worked (with version 1.1.6) When Ubuntu Intrepid RC was out, I decided to install it over my Mandriva, and I also installed wine version 1.1.6, but it didn't work as on Mandriva! When launching multiplayer, CoD4 gives this error: Fastfile for zone 'code_post_gfx_mp' is corrupt or unreadable. I have
