Wine just changes screen resolution.

LeLaTe · Post by **LeLaTe** » Fri Jun 12, 2009 5:25 pm

I'm quite new to Ubuntu and so to Wine too. So I installed Oblivion using Wine, and everything went well. But when I tried to run the game, nothing else happened but the screen resolution changed to 640x480. That happened when I clicked "Launch Game" on the start up menu of the game. Should I change some conffigurations or something?

Terminal output. Capture this by running your program in terminal from the app directory with:

$ wine your_app.exe &> log.txt 2>&1

late@late-desktop:~$ wine oblivion.exe
wine: could not load L"C:\\windows\\system32\\oblivion.exe": Module not found

And when I copyed Oblivion.exe there:

late@late-desktop:~$ wine oblivion.exe

It only works if you change to the directory where Oblivion.exe IS unless it's in the environment path....or create an custom application launcher in the panel or in the terminal type....
Ex.
env WINEPREFIX="/home/(username)/.wine" wine "D:\Path\to\Oblivion\Oblivion.exe"

I'm not sure at all that I did what I was supposed to but:

late@late-desktop:~$ env WINEPREFIX="/home/late/.wine" wine "C:\Program Files\Bethesda Softworks\Oblivion\Oblivion.exe"
err:module:find_forwarded_export function not found for forward 'd3dx8.D3DXGetImageInfoFromFileInMemory' used by L"C:\\windows\\system32\\d3dx9_36.dll". If you are using builtin L"d3dx9_36.dll", try using the native one instead.

I did a bit of Googling, and didn't quite understand how to get and instal winetricks d3dx9. I would apreciate, if someone could explain me what to do.

The line of errors is narrowing down, but still there's something wrong.

Does:
$ wget http://www.radgametools.com/down/Bink/RADTools.exe
$ wine RADTools.exe /s

fix it?

How did Oblivion.exe get in \windows\system? File diffusion perhaps?!
Binkw32.dll is installed in the game directory when you install Obv.

I suggest you just start again if you are getting binkw32.dll errors.Remove your wine prefix (rm -rf ~/.wine) and re-install.After you've installed oblivion, run "wine Oblivion.exe" from the installed oblivion directory, under a terminal.Check the terminal output and you'll see errors with d3dx9_*.dll.Get hold of this DLL either through another windows installation or just google it.Don't bother installing the full directx installation as it can cause additional problems.
Oh and the appdb page http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.p ... n&iId=7506 suggests another way of getting hold of the required DLL.
