Hi all! I tried to install and run Jane's USAF and Super Pro 9.4 with no luck. The game installs fine, but I cannot make it work under Linux (P-IV 2.5 + 1Gb RAM + NVidia 440Go (64Mb) with Ubuntu 9.10 + Wine 1.1.35 + NVidia 96.43.13). The game runs fine in this very same computer under Windows XP, and my computer exceeds by far the game's requirements. The original program (Jane's USAF) is listed as not working in the AppDB, but it is probably one of the best Air Combat Simulators and that is what I am trying to make it work. I got the following log file when trying to run the game, and I was wondering if an experienced Wine user could tell me if the errors are unrecoverable or if there are workarounds to solve them.: Code: fixme:ntdll:find_reg_tz_info Can't find matching timezone information in the registry for bias 180, std (d/m/y): 0/00/0000, dlt (d/m/y): 0/00/0000 fixme:ddraw:DirectDrawEnumerateExA flags 0x00000007 not handled fixme:win:EnumDisplayDevicesW ((null),0,0x32ea08,0x00000000), stub! fixme:x11drv:X11DRV_desktop_SetCurrentMode Cannot change screen BPP from 32 to 16 fixme:d3d:WineD3D_ChoosePixelFormat Add OpenGL context recreation support to SetDepthStencilSurface err:d3d7:IDirect3DViewportImpl_Clear Trying to clear the color buffer without background material ! fixme:d3d7:IDirect3DDeviceImpl_3_SetLightState D3DLIGHTSTATE_MATERIAL called with NULL material !!! fixme:d3d:set_tex_op_nvrc >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> GL_INVALID_ENUM (0x500) from set_tex_op_nvrc() @ nvidia_texture_shader.c / 454 fixme:d3d_draw:drawPrimitive Using software emulation because manual fog coordinates are provided fixme:d3d7:IDirect3DDeviceImpl_3_SetLightState D3DLIGHTSTATE_MATERIAL called with NULL material !!! err:d3d7:IDirect3DDeviceImpl_7_SetRenderState Unhandled texture mag 4 ! fixme:wave:ESD_widMessage unknown message 2069!

I can't remeber if 16 bit color under wine is like 256 colors where you need to set up the X server properly to run in 16-0bit color....
Hi, Thanks for the answer. Do you know any program that will test if wine is able to change the resolution of the graphic card properly? I think that might be one of the issues I need to fix to get the program working... cause it cannot be set to run in 32 bit color (or at least I did not find the way).
Hi Gert, I think I moved forward somehow. I decided not to try USAF alone because everyone (even XP users) had problems with it. Instead of that I installed SuperPro 9.4 on top of it following the instructions.
Hi Gert,
I already played with the configuration, and could make enough progress to get
to this point...
Unfortunately there is no stack trace in the message, so I cannot add more info
to this problem.
Taking a look at the log it seems the problem is related to wine and the X
server. It's too bad the X server org.conf file is hard to configure. I have
the NVidia X Server Settings application, but it seems it does not update the
file with all the possible options for my card.
I have the feeling that the game changes the resolution of the screen to
800x600x16 and then to 1024x768x16 and those changes might be producing the bug.
I would not be surprised if the lack of configuration of xorg.conf is
responsible for this crash.... For example, I had to change all the default
color depths from 24 to 16 to avoid the previous errors but for me it feels
wrong to change that parameter. I feel X should be able to switch between 24 to
16 when needed... but maybe I am wrong.
I hope someone with enough knowledge of X and Wine could suggest something to
try...
Here is my xorg.conf file:
