wine users - Mar 2012 - Running Vampire the Masquerade - Bloodlines graphic bug

Hi all,

I'm new to wine, and I've done a lot of reading and searching for a
solution to my problem. But nothing seems to work.

The game runs fine, only on startup the movies in front of the main menu
don't work. And in game characters are teared up.

Example:

I've tried installing the dll files for directx and patched the game but it
doesn't seem to work. I'm running it from steam and on osx 10.6.8.

I'm using wineskin and haven't downloaded anything besides that.

I'd appreciate any help,

Novante

Wineskin has its own support forum.

The issue is not just Wine itself; I believe you when you say you use unmodified
Wine. But wrappers such as yours also install winetricks and other tweaks that
are relevant to troubleshooting a problem. It is not our responsibility to keep
track of what every wrapper script out there is doing, and the people who use
these things are often unaware of what they've installed. One thing you
could do that the PlayOnLinux people promised long ago, but failed to deliver,
is a a log that will summarize every tweak that was applied by your wrapper that
users could copy and paste here.

The second thing you need to fix for users to get support here is to properly
install gecko in every wrapper. A wineprefix without gecko is broken.

Sorry to spam this topic, but 4.0.16 is out with everything (Gecko, logfile,
warnings, ...)

Should I post something to give details about this?

Yes, go ahead and post an announcement about the new features.
