Open Source Radeon and S3TC?

[richard1558]

Hi, I am trying to get Call of Duty 1 and Two Worlds working through wine.

I have searched a lot, and all I could find was that S3TC is not available in the open source driver, and to me it seems that this is why they do not start.

I have tried both games with the fglrx drivers, cod1 works fine, two worlds has graphical issues, which are probably related to the shaders or something like that(?), which is why I want to try the open source driver but I am also curious to see the performance.

Wine doesn't seem to give me any pointers to what is wrong.

wine TwoWorlds.exe:

Code: Select all

fixme:win:EnumDisplayDevicesW ((null),0,0x1b6f808,0x00000000), stub!
err:ole:CoInitializeEx Attempt to change threading model of this apartment from multi-threaded to apartment threaded
fixme:dinput:SysMouseAImpl_Acquire Clipping cursor to (0,0)-(1366,768)
fixme:d3d:IWineD3DDeviceImpl_CreateAdditionalSwapChain The app requests more than one back buffer, this can't be supported properly. Please configure the application to use double buffering(=1 back buffer) if possible
fixme:d3d:WineD3D_ChoosePixelFormat Add OpenGL context recreation support to SetDepthStencilSurface

wine CoDMP.exe:

Code: Select all

fixme:win:EnumDisplayDevicesW ((null),0,0x21cf748,0x00000000), stub!
fixme:keyboard:RegisterHotKey ((nil),0,0x00000001,9): stub
fixme:keyboard:UnregisterHotKey ((nil),0): stub

Could anyone give me some pointers?
How could I get S3TC working? (if it is the issue here)

It appears as though the game is requesting a double backbuffer. Is their any way you change this within the settings? Also have you tried setting wine to use backbuffer instead of FBO in winetricks?

Thanks for the reply.

I set the orm to backbuffer, but it has the same problem and same output.

I tried TwoWorlds_RADEON.exe which is for radeon compatibility or the likes, same story.
I also tried running TwoWorlds.exe and TwoWorlds_RADEON.exe in safe mode, using the -safemode flag.

I also was searching for any graphics options with which I could make the game only use one backbuffer, but couldn't find a way.

The only graphical options I could find in the registry are as follows:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER/Software/Reality Pump/TwoWorlds/Graphics:

Though the backbuffer might not be the problem it seems (unless it is only a problem in the open source radeon driver), I have posted the output of the fglrx driver below, which starts although it gives the same backbuffer fixme.

The wine output with fglrx:
(I started the game and exited.)

Both games work, as stated before, though Two Worlds has graphical "glitches" with fglrx (which makes it unplayable).

Can't seem to find a way to edit my posts, sorry.

I have noticed that mesa 7.11.2 only supports OpenGL 2.1, could it be that I require OpenGL 3.0?

I use Debian SID and currently I am using the binary package for mesa, I'll try building mesa from source to see if OpenGL 3.0 will help me here.
