Cannot play The Treasures of Montezuma game

Post by F_style »

On Wine 1.4 there were no problems. But when upgrading to latest Wine I'm no longer able to play this game. When trying to run the game I get a message: "error: unable to create direct3d object".

Console output is:

Code: Select all

user@linux-04qh:~/.wine/Juegos/drive_c/Archivos de programa/The Treasures
Of Montezuma> wine treasuresofmontezuma.exe
err:d3d:wined3d_adapter_init_gl_caps Received a NULL GL_RENDERER.
err:d3d:wined3d_adapter_init Failed to initialize GL caps for adapter
0x13d690.
^Cfixme:console:CONSOLE_DefaultHandler Terminating process 73 on event 0
user@linux-04qh:~/.wine/Juegos/drive_c/Archivos de programa/The Treasures
Of Montezuma>
And it happens since circa 1.5.30.

Do you think there's a fix for this, or what's happening?
Thanks.

What graphics hardware do you have? Which drivers? Are you running a 64bit linux?

There are some older forum threads about "Received a NULL GL_RENDERER", they all seem to have in common, that some older hardware like intel integrated graphics 945G? was used. Imho a bug report would be justified. It would be nice, if you could do a regression test in order to find out, which patch between 1.4 and 1.6 caused the regression, see http://wiki.winehq.org/RegressionTesting . There's already a bug in wine's bugzilla, which mentions that specific error message, see http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=21708 , but I still think, that a separate bug especially for the intel hardware might make sense.
