i've tried a view things to get windows quake III arena with sound working None however seems to work, or even matter. I know i can run a script to report a bug with some debuginfo, but i don't remember the name/place of the thing. What i tried is this: Upgrade to wine-20030813 removed Alsa, and recompiled the kernel with oss support: -> mpg123 worked,q3 didn't played with the multimediasection of the wine config ditched the oss, and go back to alsa -> mpg123 worked, 3q didn't played some more with the configuration. Downgraded to wine-200206xx tried to play quake -> no sound no fullscreen installed wine-20030813 again .. and so on and so on. The configuration file mentions at the verry bottom something about Q2 which is picky about sound. I guess Q3 is picky too. can anybody tell me what the option does? ;[AppDefaults\\pickygame.exe\\dsound] ;"EmulDriver" = "N" I searched the mailing list of the last 6 months, and haven't found any solutions there Did I miss anything?
