first of all: hello forum members i am new here. hope to get help about my direct3d problem.
i tried deus ex with wine and with some regedit stuff and some deus-ex config file modification i finally had direct3d and was able to play. but now i try aliens vs predator ( 1 ) and have same problems, i only have directDraw HAL, when i play in crap resolution 640x480 it works, when i go to higher resolutions game "lags" somehow. when i move the mouse nothing happens, then after 4-5 seconds the mouse move is done. problem was in deus ex the same. and also: Avp1 runs WAY too fast. is there a way to get direct3d working in Avp? i think the mouse-lags and gamespeed problems might disappear
im running arch linux 64 bit, i have newest wine from repositories and followed 100 instructions for installing directx and edit registry and games work now. computer is dualcore 4gig ram nvidia gpu (i think these informations are not that necesseary).
games are running. but cant choose direct3d in settings, only directdraw HAL (in deus ex it worked with a special dll file from winehq db).

This is very important. Have you installed the nVidia binary drivers.
The open source nv driver that some distributions install as default
will not work well with wine.

yes i have the binary drivers. i also got deus ex running with modified dll so i know its working, atm the only problem is this huge lag, i move the mouse nothing happens (4-5 seconds) then suddenly the move appears (same with keyboard). with special dll in deus ex i had direct3d option in graphic settings and this solved the problem, but there is no such fix for avp and other games

The following error could be your problem:
fixme:d3d_surface:surface_cpu_blt Filter WINED3D_TEXF_LINEAR not
supported in software blit.
however I can not help with that other than say try using wine 1.4 rc3.
I certainly find Deus Ex 1 runs fine with either OpenGL or DirectX (ARCH 64-bit + Geforce 8800 GTX) - using any 1.3.xx version of Wine. Deus Ex : HR is not well supported at all and runs very slowly and with multiple graphical errors - when I tried it with Wine 1.3.36. It's graphics engine (even in DX9 mode is a bit to much for Wine to cope with).
I presume you've read the ARCH wiki on Wine? Are you using a 32-bit Wineprefix (multilib Wine defaults to 64-bit)?
deus ex 1, i only have the direct3d render option with this dxglr18 from winehq description. did not change anything in prefix, tried wine and wine64, but avp1 gold still has input lags like hell

ok i found out something VERY strange, when i use compiz wm it works with resolutions up to 1024x768, with kwin or metacity i have this strange input lags....
i am new here. hope to get help about my direct3d problem.
