Hey folks. I'm certain this has been addressed before, but a google
search hasn't been terribly helpful.
Are there any windows Glide-OpenGL wrappers that are functional under
WINE? I'm trying to get Wing Commander Prophecy to run in hardware
mode, but with my configuration, Direct3D doesn't want to work (I've a
PIII/600, MGA G550, 640MB ram, Xorg 6.8.1, kernel 2.6.9, and wine 20050310)
WCP is a DirectX 6 game, and I figured that since I've seen Warcraft
III run halfway decently with this configuration using OpenGL rather
than D3D, I could try that with WCP. Unfortunately, All of the Glide
wrappers I've tried have had... less than stellar results (flickering
past the point of annoyance, or blank screens, or just plain crashes)
So, I was simply wondering if anyone has found any Glide wrappers that
work well with WINE as it stands, or if there's any possible way to get
DirectX 6/7's Direct3d to pass through to OpenGL and my hardware
acelleration in my current configuration? (as I'm also having problems
with Wing Commander: Secret Ops, which is DX7)
I am not subscribed to the list, and would appreciate being CCed on any
replies.
