I DLed DirectX 9.0C redistributable and ran it with Wine. I didn't know it would want to know the directory to install to. Its obviously going to be in Wine's drive_c folder, but beyond that I have no idea. I was having some trouble with Winetricks installer so i thought manually would be easier. Anyone know where to install these files?

Here is my setup: Wine version 1.0.1 Ubuntu 8.10 Intrepid Ibex x64 I have tried installing Call of Duty 4, since my friend has a copy and the app db says it works. However, during the installation, direct x fails to install. I downloaded direct x 9c and tried to install it, but it fails immediately. I have tried different programs over a period of about 9 months, and nothing will work. Is

I have just installed Call of Duty 4 in Wine on Ubuntu 7.10 and that went fine but during installation of DirectX it said, "An internal system error occurred. Please refer to DXError.log and DirectX.log in your windows folder to determine problem." And that the installation had failed. Then When I try to run the game, it says, "Error during initialization: Video card or driver

Hi. I found out about Wine 2 days ago. So, my goal is to play Warcraft III through Garena with Wine on my Mac. I installed Garena, and it works ok so far. But I cant initialize Warcraft III, I get this message: "Warcraft was unable to initialize DirectX. Please ensure you have DirectX 8.1 or newer installed and that your display drivers are current." I already installed d3dx9 and

This is not a fault or complaint, just a query for some information. 1. To play windows games in Wine, do I need to load directx, or is it handled by wine as a default? 2. I'm having problems in some games using the NVIDIA drivers (GF2 7186). For example 'Legion Arena' http://www.slitherine.com/games/legion_arena seems to get further with the open source 'nv' drivers as

Hey guys I am new to wine and command line and I am fully self taught to this point. I am having trouble with my game Rift. I am using mac OSX 10.6 on macbook pro. I have already installed wine, macports, x11, xcode4, Microsoft fonts, xquartz. I installed rift using Crossover games and it ran smoothly, but the trial version is over, and I want to continue playing RIft. I can start the game using

Ever since 1.1.27, I've been having problems with what I think is directx. I updated to 1.1.29 (I skipped .28) and I still get the same errors. I've tried using winetricks to install Directx9, but it doesn't do much to alleviate the problem. I've completely deleted my .wine folder and reinstalled 1.1.29 from scratch, but I still get the problem. I have the latest nVidia drivers

Hello guys :D i'm a new comer in ubuntu ;) i installed few days ago Wine for play Win game but i know that need Direct x to do it so i found this post : http://www.wine-reviews.net/wine-reviews/games/how-to-install-directx-in-linux-using-wine.html i did all that the writer wrote but when it says "launch direct x 9.0c install it gives me this error : The file

I've been working for a few hours to get RIFT running on my Mac Pro. I really don't want to have to get a full windows license to play the game so it seemed like a good alternative. So I pulled wine via macports (I did this today so I got wine-1.2.2). Then downloaded the game and got it patched (my wife has a Windows machine and a Rift account). This is where progress stopped. I find that

Any speciel tips?

we often say here directx installation can break wine What about Dan kegel winetricks ? It is safe to install microsoft distribuable package or it may break wine ? What we can do, what we can't ? For exemple, when wine console tell us msvcr80.dll is missing, what is better or safer: - installing vcrun2005 via winetricks - copy the missing downloaded dll in system32 ? the both works for my

You are right it's an DirectX issue and it's easy to fix. If you install the stand alone version you have to update DirectX. I had the same Problem under Windows. You can download the DirectX 9c Update here: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/en/details.aspx?displaylang=en&FamilyID=3b170b25-abab-4bc3-ae91-50ceb6d8fa8d

When I'm trying to install DirectX, I get the following error at the beginning of installation process (after all confirmations): > A Cabinet file necessary for the installation cannot be trusted I have encountered this problem with multiple versions of wine and directx redistributables. I had no need in using directx for a long time, but looks like some features are not implemented for

Hello. This thread is to help anyone having problems with using EPSXE psx emulator in WINE. EPSXE can work in WINE, only if you install directx in WINE. WINE alone does not have directx installed with it but EPSXE requires directx to function. You would need to install directx using any game which has "Install DirectX" or something similar. The redist packages for directx found online

Ever since the RCs and the release of 1.2, I have been having trouble with directx based games not working properly. They did work under wine-1.1.3x. The problems are: video very slow and jerky, about 1 fps, objects appearing as "tears" on the screen, missing some textures, and screen going blank during certain effects. System: 64-bit kubuntu-10.04, dual NVIDIA 9800GT w/ 512 mb, plenty

Hello, I'm trying to use Theora video codec with DirectX 8 and DiretX 7. The problem seems to be out format of Theora decoder wich is YV12 and incompatible with DirectShow Video Renderer Filter. Do you know a filter able to convert YV12 to RGB, usable in a commercial application ? May I have to make such a filter myself ? Is is said in the README file of oggdsf archive : "You need

I am getting this error when trying to play Rift, which is odd I think because I can play WoW just fine. I installed DirectX9 and 10 via winetricks, but still I get this error. Code: err:module:import_dll Library d3dx9_43.dll (which is needed by L"C:\\Program Files\\RIFT Game\\RIFT Game\\rift.exe") not found err:module:import_dll Library d3dx9_43.dll (which is needed by

Hello: I've been a user of Wine for quite some time, but have an issue that I cannot figure out. Hopefully it is somewhat simple. I'm trying to get some older kids games working (most of the games are dated around 2002 or so). I know they use some version of DirectX. They aren't even 3D, they are all 2D games. The issue is that some of them are really choppy, and the sound is

Hi, I am running wine 0.9.58 and having problems running Counter Strike: Source, Rainbow Six 3: Raven Shield. I think this is caused by the direct x layer in wine. My system runs opengl programs fine using the ATI driver (Radeon 3850). Is there any way I can test directx functionality without having to download a game? Dxdiag.exe is not included in wine.
