Regedit + Applications = Options

Post by Berillions »

Hi,

Actually, i use "~/.wine" for my all applications. When i want to override a dll, it's simple, i use winecfg and i have this line on Regedit :

Code: Select all

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Wine\AppDefaults\POWERPNT.EXE\DllOverrides
I create a [DIRECT3D] key for Assassin's Creed Brotherhood, i create it like this :

Code: Select all

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Wine\AppDefaults\AssassinsCreedBrotherhood.exe\Direct3D
In this key, i create 2 values : UseGLSL=disabled and Multisampling=enabled

But, i have a problem with these values. they're not used when i launch a game.
For exemple in Assassin's Creed Brotherhood, if Multisampling is enabled in Regedit so I can activate it in game.

Result :
If if i enable Mutlisampling by

Code: Select all

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Wine\AppDefaults\AssassinsCreedBrotherhood.exe\Direct3D
I can't activate it in game.

But i enable Multisampling by

Code: Select all

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Wine\Direct3D
, i can activate it in game...

Why by my first way, it doesn't work?
If i use the second, it's for all application and not one...

Thanks for your help

When starting it make sure that's the real name of the executable.

Lots of games have launchers that start another executable. To check this use 'ps x|less' or 'ps -ef | less'.
