I? trying to run Rome: Total War over steam, through wine. It used to run, and run nearly perfectly, however, with the latest release it throws a: Direct X 9 not found error! Help would be greatly appreciated, especially if I can avoid having to delete my .wine folder, because I have SO many applications. Thanks!

Please allow us to respond as we have time to work with your problem. Please keep in mind that Wine is Free, Open Source, Software. All support here is from volunteers and that some of us do have other priorities. Also, we would like to know what Operating System, video card, video drivers and the program you are trying to run (if you have provided this, thank you, if not, please do.) Also, if you have not stated why, please provide, why you need to installed Direct X. James McKenzie

Have you tried making a new clean prefix for R:TM only and seeing if it runs again that way? It can happen that upgrading a pre-existing Wine install "in place" doesn't go perfectly and things like this happen. This is only one of the many reasons it's better to make a separate prefix for each app/game you install rather than just installing everything to the default ~/.wine. > > Good luck!The Appdb is unupdated for the 1.2 RC2. No, how would I go about setting up this override? And, for the clean prefix, I'd have to re-download RTW, which took over three days last time on my 54k connection. Is there any way to avoid this? And sorry about the bump, guys. I won't do it again.

Insure that the 32 bit version of the opengl driver portion is installed. James McKenzie
YouUe right, my compiz had incidentally stopped working shortly before you said that. I did, and now I get this... fixme:process:SetProcessShutdownParameters (00000100, 00000000): partial stub.
