Double buffering - one back buffer if possible.

[jesus6000]

Hello everyone,

So I'm trying to get rome total war to run on ubuntu 13.10. I've downloaded vcrun2008 and directx9 and d3dx9, and i'm not having a lot of luck. I'm trying to launch it through PlayForLinux for the bug report. This is the full report.

Any help would be hugely appreciated. Preferably in clear descriptions of what to type into terminal because I'm really not too good with this OS yet. I've only been using Linux a short time and this is the first forray into Wine. I've tried to pick up what I can from reading about but I'm not having much luck with this one.

As a workaround for crashes because of winegstreamer not working, one can
disable winegstreamer.dll in winecfg.

How does one go about doing this? I fear I am not as familiar with this as you would like me to be.

I also appologise for not doing my research. I'd not realised the problem was covered elsewhere. Very sorry about that.

Open winecfg, go to the Libraries tab, select winegstreamer from the dropdown list, click Add, click Edit, select Disable, click OK, click OK.

So i've updated to wine 1.6. The video is now working. Also downloaded directx9 and d3dx packages to get it to run. When first installing these packages, without restarting the computer, it worked. Next time i start up the computer, it crashes unless it's in a virtual desktop. Running again through PlayForLinux to get the bug report I'm getting these messages.

Please configure the application to use double buffering (1 back buffer) if possible.

These are the bold type exerts from the debugging log.

POL is not supported here.

Please post the full terminal output from running in plain Wine, not just the parts you think are important. http://wiki.winehq.org/FAQ#get_log
