That's not a problem that is a normal Wine output.

Steve · Post by **Steve** » Thu Aug 21, 2008 10:04 pm

So if thats a normal output for wine, why does the game fail to start ??

Steve · Post by **Steve** » Mon Sep 01, 2008 12:51 am

Wondering if there's anyone out there who's managed to get this older game running under wine.?

My above post of the errors is of it trying to run..

even with the mentioned files in c:\windows'system32\ still gripes theres not suitable gfx card..

Post by **dimesio** » Mon Sep 01, 2008 8:20 am

Your game wants info from dxdiag.exe; all those fixme's are as-yet unimplemented dxdiag functions. You could try native dxdiag.exe. According to the the last comment in http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1429 , dxdiag.exe will run fine using native dxdiagn.dll as of 0.9.61.

Steve · Post by **Steve** » Mon Sep 01, 2008 8:55 am

Ok, tried that...

Now i get a different error from the game..

Code: Select all

err:ole:COMPOBJ_DllList_Add couldn't load in-process dll L"dxdiagn.dll"
err:ole:CoGetClassObject no class object {a65b8071-3bfe-4213-9a5b-491da4461ca7} could be created for context 0x1

Tells me i need diretx 9b or higher..

What's the game doing when you get those messages?

This is just a stab in the dark, but have you tried different Windows version settings in winecfg?

Steve · Post by **Steve** » Fri Sep 05, 2008 4:08 pm

it tells me i need directx 9 or higher... then game crashes before anything loads

Steve · Post by **Steve** » Sun Sep 07, 2008 4:23 am

when trying to start the game it loads a black screen then throws a windows "violation access" and gives me a ok utton to click then it dies completey with the bove mentioned code
