Wine and Baldur's Gate

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Well,

Now that I've made it through the actual install, I figured I'ld take
Baldur's Gate for a spin.  The main screeen, where you select to play the
game, change the configuration, etc, comes up fine.  There's a slight pause
after clicking 'Play' while BGMain.exe starts and X is set yo 640x480 (I'm
guessing this has something to do with DETACH_PROCESS?), but that's no
biggy.

The opening credits and movie play just fine.  I'm able to create the main
character without any noticeable problems.  The first 'problem' I ran into
was at the opening of the 'Prologue' chapter.  Under windows, a narrator's
voice reads the opening text as it scrolls across the screen.  Under wine,
the text is scrolling, but sans naration.  A bit annoying, but no biggy.

The real fun starts when the game actually begins.  First off, the sound,
when there is any, cuts out quite a bit, with no apparent rhyme nor reason.
 Secondly, the left and bottom panels are covered by the main section.  You
have to click on the various buttons to make them display.

The third 'error' appears to be related to X's virtual desktop.  Moving the
cursor to the left or bottom side of the screen moves the 'viewport' away
from the window, instead of scrolling the view in the Baldur's Gate window.

After shutting down Baldur's Gate, I noticed a whole slew of error messages
in the xterm window I launched it from.  Here are a few examples:

	fixme:module:CreateProcessA (BGMain.exe,...): DETACHED_PROCESS
ignored
	fixme:dsound:IDirectSoundImpl_SetCooperativeLevel
(0x403f8034,00020021,3):stub
	fixme:dsound:IDirectSoundBufferImpl_QueryInterface Unknown GUID
{31efac30-515c-11d0-a9aa-00aa0061be93}
	fixme:ddraw:Main_DirectDraw_CreateSurface App didn't request a
valid surface type - assuming offscreenplain
	err:ddraw:Main_DirectDrawSurface_Lock  Negative values in LPRECT
!!!
	fixme:ddraw:DIB_DirectDrawSurface_Blt   Unsupported flags:
DDBLT_DDFX

Any help in getting any of these issues resolved would be greatly
appreciated!


Thanx,
Ian
