Wine version: 1.3.11 Linux Distro: Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid I am trying to run Dungeons and Dragons Online (DDO) but have been unable to. I followed the instructions from the AppDB page (http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=22586) I ran the installer on a windows computer then copied the downloaded file to my computer and installed it with wine. I downloaded the dependencies indicated in the page. I installed PyLotRo through package manager. I pretty much did everything in the page. When I patched it this is what I got:> rundll32.exe lotropatcher.dll,Patch patch.ddo.com:80 --language ENGLISH --productcode DDO --filesonly > Connecting to patch.ddo.com:80 > > fixme:wininet:CommitUrlCacheEntryInternal entry already in cache - don't know what to do! > > Checking files... > fixme:wininet:CommitUrlCacheEntryInternal entry already in cache - don't know what to do! > > files to patch: 0 bytes to download: 0 > Patching files: > > Connecting to patch.ddo.com:80 > > fixme:wininet:CommitUrlCacheEntryInternal entry already in cache - don't know what to do! > > Checking files... > fixme:wininet:CommitUrlCacheEntryInternal entry already in cache - don't know what to do! > > files to patch: 0 bytes to download: 0 > Patching files: > > Connecting to patch.ddo.com:80 > > fixme:wininet:CommitUrlCacheEntryInternal entry already in cache - don't know what to do! > > checking data... > fixme:wininet:CommitUrlCacheEntryInternal entry already in cache - don't know what to do! > > data patches: 0 bytes to download: 0 > unlock: 0 empty: 0 > result code: 0x00000001 > Patching data: > > > > *** Finished ***When I log it, it changes the resolution on my screen, it flashes black but doesn't run the program. It gives no error, just displays the *** Finished ** One thing I hate more than error codes are no error codes. Anyone now if this is an error of if this is how it's supposed to be and I have to do something afterwards?

I downloaded the file ddostandard.exe from the website and ran it on a windows computer. That file downloads a folder with the files needed to install the game and the dndsetup.exe. I transfered that folder to my linux computer and ran dndsetup.exe. Hope this clarifies it.

Hope this clarifies it.Does this program write any registry changes when it is installed? If so, then the entire setup needs to be either: 1. Moved. This can be done with regedit export/import. 2. Completely installed on Wine. However, it is my understanding that DDO will not properly install in this situation. I'll have to grab the install file and try this on my system with a built-from-source version of Wine 1.3.12 (it is not available for the Mac yet and I do some minor development work.) James McKenzie
> You know there is an Applications Database and the entry for DDO has instructions on how to install the game?As stated on my first post I followed the instructions from there, but the game didn't work. I researched but I didn't find a similar case to mine. I also used regedit on a file with this content:> REGEDIT4 > > [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Wine\Direct3D] > "DirectDrawRenderer"="OpenGL" > "Multisampling"="disabled" > "OffscreenRenderingMode"="fbo" > "RenderTargetLockMode"="readdraw" > "UseGLSL"="disabled" > "VideoMemorySize"="256"And it made no difference.
I'm not sure if it writes them, but I read it needed some, then I also read that from the Database entry it was not needed... I reinstalled the game an it says it has to install directx9, I'm not sure if it actually does it...

I pretty much did everything in the page.Sorry, hadn't seem this yet when I made my previous reply about using PyLotRo. Have you made sure that D&DO is the selected game in the dropdown box at the top of the window for Tools -> Settings Wizard and that the game directory is correct in Tools -> Options of the PyLotRo launcher window?
