Hi everyone I have a problem with running 3d games on wine. Compiz and Linux native games work. When I run game the screen goes black and i hear sound from game intro. Then it crashes. [Crying or Very sad] I'm running Ubuntu 8.04 Hardy AMD64 Log from console : Code: net at net-desktop:/media/GameArea/MyData/Games/PainKiller/Bin$ wine Painkiller.exe preloader: Warning: failed to reserve

A problem I have with most applications I've tried is after several minutes, they will slow down to a crawl, becoming unusable. The program I'm mainly interested in is Painkiller (http://www.gamespot.com/pc/action/painkiller/index.html). It runs beautifully at first, and I can usually get through a level, but after that, it slows down or even stops. Is this an issue in Wine or could this

Hello everyone Wine is great. I've managed to (through PlayOnLinux) get Steam installed and I'm able to play a load of my games in the comfort of Ubuntu. Currently I have all my Half Life and Half Life 2 mods working for the most part. My issue is: Some games come with a browser or launcher that checks if the game is up to date. All of these launchers tend to contain some Java, Flash

Running Ubuntu 10.04, Nvidia driver version 260.19.29, 3 GB RAM, AMD Phenom Quad-Core, wine-1.3.11. I notice no difference in performance whether OpenGL is enabled or not. Does this mean D3D is now working and I don't need OpenGL now? I get close to 80fps in some places, which is great, but in a raid or other places with a lot of toons and activitiy, Wow practically freezes up and becomes

Hi I'm trying to play a game which is not in the AppDB (yet) but when i try to run it blinks and shuts off. So I put it in the Terminal and it gave me this: Code: [iro at Hell ~]$ '/home/iro/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/Frater/bin/main.exe' fixme:win:EnumDisplayDevicesW ((null),0,0x33f214,0x00000000), stub! fixme:win:EnumDisplayDevicesW ((null),0,0x33f3d0,0x00000000), stub!

Hello everyone. I seem to have a bit of a problem running some 3D accelerated games under wine, while using the open-source ATI Radeon driver. My graphics card is Radeon 9700, and the open-source drivers overall work much better than the proprietary fglrx. The fglrx driver allows me (in most cases) to run games like Temple of Elemental Evil (particularily) or Morrowind normally, but I can't

I'm suing an Aspire 5050 laptop with and AMD Turion64 and Radeon X1100 Running Kubuntu Hardy, Wine-1.0, latest version of Xorg Code: :~$ apt-cache showpkg xorg-driver-fglrx Package: xorg-driver-fglrx Versions: 1:7.1.0-8-3+2.6.24.13-19.45 Running with the fglrx drivers generally doesn't seem to bode well... video playback is slow and any attempt to run wine with d3d crashes.

Game named Istaria: Chronicles of the Gifted (http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=application&iId=1972) ( MMO ) is slower on ANY linux and ANY wine version exactly 2 times . For example on Windows I have 40 fps and in same place 20 fps on wine, 20 fps in Windows and ~10 fps on linux. I was trying lot of "wine tricks" without any effect. I have also installed the most up

I'm having some trouble running the following games on Ubuntu 10.10 using wine: Counter-strike source/Half Life 2 Warcraft 3/Frozen Throne The games run, but very very slowly (unplayable). I managed to get Counter Strike 1.6 to work fine by setting the renderer to be 'Software' under the Video options, but the other games have no such option (that I'm aware of). I'd never

Hello all, When i finally managed to run Diablo3 game thru wine, it was working perfect. No stuttering at all. I've finished the Diablo3 on normal level and now i'm playing it again on nightmare level - but i doubt that's releated to my problem. Since few days when i run diablo via wine i get incredible stuttering, the game is nearly unplayable but _nothing_ changed in wine's

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

I've recently installed Wine onto my ubuntu intrepid ibex box and I'm having endless issues when it comes to running games. Right now, I'm specifically trying to play World of Warcraft and I am receiving graphical issues that cause the game to be unplayable. These bugs are widespread and i cannot see anything in the game's window. The laptop is running on an Intel GMA965Q. I've

Hello; I researched the wine install of SC2 and I was able to correctly mount my DVD drive to read the hidden files on the UDF optical drive. That helped a lot. The install ran perfectly and the patches downloaded/installed with no problems noted. I can now run SC2, but when I go to single person the screen changes to the one with a list of maps on which I should be able to create a game, but

I know you will probably think it is just like suicide, that you would prefer to have your balls hanging on the ceiling, with canales just around your neck, but I'm trying to play Civilization V on my laptop, with the aofrementioned Graphics card. As appdb says it works very well, "platinum really", I thought it should as well in my craptastic rig. But that's not the case, as

Just have a special question, coz still cannot find the answer nowhere. / For now seems only the games that using D3D8 and OpenGL runs in Wine with almost full-speed (as they shows on Windows). / So... why Wine need to use Direct3D > OpenGL calls translations? Is it from video-driver restrictions or other things? Are those conversions using CPU for processing? I'm Interesting of the
