With your help and the winetricks scripts I now have running the following: Simcity 5 Rush Hour MSPAINT iLive's reader for consolidating plugins for Simcity gMax, which will be used to run the Simcity BAT Makes me feel line the old XP days, but I like Linux better.

Nice to meet you. You are running a fine site.

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 this. You can tell because

Received this email this morning. But I seem to be the last poster on that list and search says the topic doesn't exists. Is there a next page problem on the forum, or is it just spam? Hello, You are receiving this email because you are watching the topic, "The perils of GMAX" at WineHQ Forums. This topic has received a reply since your last visit. You can use the following link

I have a couple of programs, one a windows .exe, the other a .java program that re user created programs that support SimCity 4. I've tried adding them to various places around wine's file system, but no soap. How does one do this? Does wine include the JRE to run java stuff? I can edit the registry if only I knew what to put in there and where.

Hooray! I got a new machine. However, if I want to continue doing things with wine, I need a little more information than is in the wiki on building wine for 32-bit and/or 64-bit operations. First question: Are the instructions for 10.04 still OK? Is there any real change? Second question: If I follow the line in the RegressionTesting page that says: [code]CC="ccache gcc -m32"

Testing UBUNTU 11.04 Beta 2 with wine 1.3.15 from the download page. Winetricks did not come in with the download and is not in synaptic. Hope this will be fixed soon.

Anyone here remember the old Talking Moose desktop toy from the 80's? For the unitiated, the Talking Moose was a simple applet on old Mac computers that periodically displayed an animated Bullwinkle-lookalike moose in the corner of the screen, spouting witty phrases or biting insults, as well as commenting on various activities like opening and closing programs or inserting disks. (The

I must be missing something. SimCity4 insists on having the play disk in the CD drive and claims it can't see it. I did a full install from the drive and it saw it fine until it came time to run the program. As soon as the .exe started to load, it claimed it could not see the drive. The drive just happens to be a blu-ray dvdrw, but Linux has one of its personalities as /dev/cdrom linked to

Seems wine isn't there yet. I think it only allocates one buffer, and my debug output indicates this is causing a problem. I got 15,000+ lines of output, and I am sure we don't want to put them on this database. However, here are the last few lines: err:ddraw:IDirectDrawImpl_CreateNewSurface IWineD3DDevice::CreateSurface failed. hr = 8876017c err:ddraw:IDirectDrawImpl_CreateSurface

On several occasions lately I've had to force installation of updates. The update-manager app; has been flagging some of them with an invalid permission code or some such. Perhaps the algorithm for this has changed with 11.04? To force installation just run with: sudo apt-get upgrade You will be asked if you want to proceed, answer y You will then be asked if you want to accept unverified

As far as I know, this problem has existed forever, or since I started using wine. I've been looking at these two lines for a long time. My application, SimCity 4 does not appear to have any way to grant the request for a single buffer. No one I have asked has a handle on this. fixme:d3d:swapchain_init The application requested more than one back buffer, this is not properly supported.

Just installed the UBUNTU update which delivered wine 1.4. No real problems so far, but I got this comment about an inaccessible library. Is this due to the library not being present or a permissions problem? fixme:system:SystemParametersInfoW Unimplemented action: 94 (SPI_GETMOUSETRAILS) fixme:win:EnumDisplayDevicesW ((null),0,0x32efa4,0x00000000), stub! fixme:win:EnumDisplayDevicesW

gmax won't start up after the initial time. The messages I am getting indicate that it has become case sensitive with respect to names. The installer put in a directory named 'stdplugs' but the program wanted it to be 'StdPlugs'. So I renamed it. It still says these libraries fail to initialize. I must be missing a windows module but I did put in the recommended winetricks

Hi Peter, You did a great job on the isolinux and memdisk tools.. I can know, I've also written a CD-Rom disk emulator, only it's slow (read from the CD) uses 22KB conventional memory (mainly cache) and the emulated floppy image cannot be written to. http://www.nu2.nu/diskemu/ You're memdisk is fast, small conventional memory footprint and the emulated drive is writeable, very,

I have a program that needs .net 1.1, so I tried to install it. It aborted, so then I tried .net 2.0. Now it wants msi3.0 and it is not in winetricks, so I downloaded the distributable from Microsoft, and tried to install it. The install went OK, but it wanted to restart windows, so I said OK, and nothing seemed to have happened, but I still could not install .net 2.0. So I booted my system,
