similar to: Switch for pixel shader?

I found a regression in Oblivion that results in flickering shadows.It requires the video driver/description patch in order to see it, otherwise shadows don't work at all.Since the patch itself is probably not causing the issue, should I post a bug report? I believe the issue may be in The Last Remnant as well, but I'm not sure it's the same issue (and it happens very infrequently,

I currently have CNC3, GTA:SA, COD4 working real good in Wine (amazing AppDB pages!!) but what I'm wondering is: For GTA:SA I have to go to winecfg > Graphics > uncheck Allow Pixel Shader to make the game playable. Yet, if I want to run COD4 or CNC3, neither will start without the pixel shader option checked. Instead of having to go into winecfg everytime to change it in between games

Hi, I'm just hoping someone can tell me what's going on with shaders in wine. I have a couple of games that will run, but the 3D graphics are corrupted. The games are Clive Barker's Jericho, and Tomb Raider Underworld. They both start and the menu screens work, but the 3D graphics are completely wacked out. Are these maybe examples of shader 3.0, DX9, or something? Is there much

i am running ultima online : Kingdom Reborn and if i leave the default for pixel shader the game login screen shows a blank screen with the mouse shown but if i goto winecfg graphics and uncheck pixel shader the game intro screen and login screen show up and i am able to play the game as usual (with minor bugs) what i am wondering is how do i get the info if any to report a bug ( i was advised to

hi there, i'm trying to play oblivion, the game installs and run fine but there's still some minor problems. in nature (woods, mountains..), here and there, objects and texture seem to be missing.. kind of like if i used "noclip" and walking though objects.. so at time i can see though parts of a mountains, or run into a big rock , i cannot move forward any further but i cannot

I have an Intel GMA 950 and I installed Sims 3 on vista. It works but crash after 10 min. I reinstalled Sims 3 on Ubuntu 9.04 with playonlinux script. Install works fine but when I start the game, I have this error : " impossible de d?marrer le jeu. L'appareil 0 ne peut pas ex?cuter ce titre. Votre carte vid?o ne semble pas prendre en charge Shader Model version 2 ou ult?rieure.

Im running Ubuntu 9.04 and the latest version of WINE. I can get the game open, It'll load. I'll choose new game. it'll load. I can watch the intro, but then after the intro, the screen just stays black and I'm not quite sure on how to fix that. any advice?

Hello there, With the use of CUDA and ptx I managed to make a disassembler for at least one of the nv50 microcode/shader formats. This might come in handy for some people, hence I'm posting it here: http://www.cs.rug.nl/~wladimir/decuda/ I'm not yet sure if pixel/vertex shaders use the same instruction format as the compute shaders used by CUDA, but you'd think so, as nv50 is

Hi Folks, I got GTA: SA to start (even though the first screen is blank until I hi ENTER), but usually 5 sec. into it, it'll start to run really slow. So slow I can't play the game. I'm running Fedora 8 with a nVidia 8600 GT. I believe I have the manufacturer's drivers installed or lvidia, but I can't tell. I do have WoW working on it just fine, if that helps any. Thanks.

When trying to run 3DMark06, it doesn't detect at least Pixel Shader 2.0, and therefore refuses to run any tests. I've tried with and without UseGLSL = enabled in the registry, and Pixel Shaders are turned on. Pixel shaders and vertex shaders are both detected as 3.0 by other apps, such as the Call of Duty 2.0 start up process. 3DMark03 has a Pixel Shader 2.0. test, which it detects and

I have this same "problem" on windows. Team fortress 2 refuses to run "Engine Error Your graphics hardware must support at least pixel shader version 1.1 to run this game!" Most of you are probably thinking maybe i should get a new graphics card, no thanks, i rather never play the game. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pixel_shaders "A pixel shader serves to manipulate a

after all my efforts and no ones help... well, ok just one maybe; i have decided that getting my game of Oblivion Elder Scrolls on here through wine is not achievable by someone as dim witted as myself, as i really have no clue about all these archive things, terminal commands GL shaders or anything else... it just seems that no matter what i do, it just doesn't want to work, either i have the

Hello! I just installed TF2 and Steam through WINE. However, once I started it, it said my hardware must support at least Pixel Shader 1.1 to run the game. I looked up my Gfx card online, and the specs say my card supports Pixel shader 1.4. The requirements on the box say I need a card that supports Direct X 8. This shouldn't be a problem, because I've used both 8 and 9 on Windows. Is this

Hello, I've recently run into an unknown bit in Tesla shaders, and was hoping you could shed some light on it. I believe they're related to clamping of some sort. Here are 2 examples (from diff shaders): a0000401 cc054780 cvt rpi f32 $r0 f32 $r2 [unknown: 00000000 00010000] a000060d 8c014780 cvt rni s32 $r3 f32 $r3 [unknown: 00000000 00010000] [This is intel-style syntax, cvt =

Here's the other of my proposals for this year's Google Summer of Code. (The first is on cfe-dev.) It was suggested to me by Dan Kegel (from the Wine project, they really want this). Title: Microsoft Direct3D shader bytecode backend Abstract: There is a distinct lack of open-source frameworks for compiling HLSL, the shader language used by Direct3D, into bytecode that D3D can

What I would like to see is maybe some check boxes in winecfg such as "emulate shaders [ ] v 1.1 [ ] v 1.4 [ ] v. 2.0 [ ] v 3.0" Maybe this would be too much work and I don't know what I'm asking. But I think fast emulation is possible using open source. This would allow many modern programs to be run on older hardware and I think it would draw in more people and increase

Hi, As I'm looking to add some support to nouveau for features like atomic counters and images, I'm running into some confusion about what the first word of the shader header means.
