Getting SimCity 3000 to work in wine
Ok for some reason all the newer wine versions have a broken D3D_Surface that prevents SimCity 3000 from even starting well here is the trick I did to get it to work for me. I used the Wine version 0.9.14 for Ubuntu instead of using the newer version and it works great. Although I had to download a few extra dependencies to get that version of wine to work. I remember when I could get Si...

SimCity 4 + RH easily crashes with addons and heavy city.
Hello. First, thank you a lot for Wine. It is really a fabulous project and ex windows users like me really say you thanks a lot each time we use Wine.

But here are my issues : - Game easily crashes with a heavy city with many buildings for some reason, especially while placing myself a building. - Game stab...

SimCity 4 Deluxe's Building Architect Tool and friends
In my tests of gmax, I downloaded and installed the Building Architect Tool (BAT) for SimCity 4 Deluxe along with the associated Plugin Editor and the Lot Editor. With the exception of reported problems with gmax, all of these execute properly when called. Until we solve the gmax problem, we won't know if the program suite works cohesively. This is just a status note for anyone inter...

Streets of SimCity under Wine - "No PCI Bus detected."
Hi! I'm trying to get the Win 95 game "Streets of SimCity" to run under Linux, and have come across an error message that I don't understand. Wondering if anyone can point me towards a possible cause! The game is 3D graphical, and I've just switched in the nVidia driver (previously, while using Nouveau, I got other errors such as that OpenGL...

Strange comment on wine output running SimCity 4
This line, obviously emitted during program start up, has me puzzled, but then a lot of things confound me. [code] fixme:x11drv:X11DRV_desktop_SetCurrentMode Cannot change screen BPP from 32 to 16 [/code] Now I realize this is not very important and that the correction for it has been put off for a reason, but since the game is set to run in 32 BPP, why is there even a thought of changing to 16

SimCity doesn't want to install
I'm running Wine 1.5.1. I don't get an error message or anything. I try running the install executable in the terminal, still without an error.

This could be a multiple supplier problem
I have finally encountered this problem in such a way that everything went awry. Running Simcity 4 Rush Hour with the following command line: env WINEPREFIX="/home/john/.wine" wine C:\\PROG\~FBU\\Maxis\\SIMC\~ZMW\\Apps\\SimCity\ 4.exe -intro:off Which brought up the game, just fine. I opened my largest city, and very soon after that, while I was adding something to the layout, the...

wine, wineserver, and x.org using 100% of CPU
Hi, I installed Wine 20050111 on my FreeBSD 6-current (freshly updated yesterday afternoon) to play SimCity 2000. Whenever I start the program with "wine SIMCITY.EXE", the various start-up pop-ups appear, as well as the dialog asking if you want to start a new city, open an old city, etc. I get the side toolbar. The main window where you play the game is never drawn, however; it starts off a...

A further comment on 1.2-RC6
Running on UBUNTU 10.04 current to recent hours. When running Simcity 4 Rush Hour with a very small suite of plugins, sometimes the graphics goes haywire. The early symptoms are RGB + black squares appearing here and there. As this develops, graphic objects start to take on primary colours. I've never let it go to a crash. Sometimes restarting the game fixes...

Icewind Dale 2 Mouse Cursor
Hi, First I want to say I am really impressed with Wine. Its about as good as Cedega and sometimes better in my experience. Anyways my problem concerns Icewind Dale 2, after starting the game up my mouse cursor is not the gloved hand in game version but a mix of that and the KDE desktop cursor. It looks like a black square with both cursors overlapping. Naturally this makes it difficult to play

Help debugging lockup when running wine
Hey all, I'm running Ubuntu 10.04 with Wine 1.1.42 (distributed through the Ubuntu package manager), and I'm getting complete lockups when running SimCity 4. This also happened before when running WoW, but I switched games so did not completely debug that one. So anyway, basically after playing for 20-60 minutes I get complete lockups, only thing that happens is blinking caps lock light. I guess this is not supposed to happen with Wine but it only...

Assistance Please.
...UBUNTU 10.10 err:alsa:ALSA_CheckSetVolume Could not find '{PCM,Line} Playback Volume' element I have loaded just about every part of ALSA that I can find in the distro. Do I have something missing? I do have the PCM daemon turned off, as PCM gets the blame for losing sound in my app. (SimCity 4, build 640) Sound works fine, so is this a bogus error of some sort? I've been getting this message on all versions of wine from 1.2 to date.
