Problem trying running Guild Warss (First Post)

Post by nukepipe »

Hi there.... I'm new here and this is my first post. I had not take a look to the forum yet.

So here is my problem.

This is the output I have when trying to run GW from the comman line:

[nukepipe@localhost ~]$ wine "C:\Program Files\Guild Wars\Gw.exe" -windowed
ALSA lib pcm.c:2162:(snd_pcm_open_conf) Cannot open shared library /usr/lib/alsa-lib/libasound_module_pcm_pulse.so
ALSA lib pcm.c:2162:(snd_pcm_open_conf) Cannot open shared library /usr/lib/alsa-lib/libasound_module_pcm_pulse.so
err:d3d:DllMain VideoMemorySize is 0 but must be >0
err:d3d:WineD3D_CreateFakeGLContext Can't find a suitable iPixelFormat
err:d3d:InitAdapters Failed to get a gl context for default adapter
err:d3d:WineDirect3DCreate Direct3D9 is not available without opengl

err:d3d:WineDirect3DCreate Direct3D8 is not available without opengl
err:d3d:WineDirect3DCreate Direct3D8 is not available without opengl

And also have the error message on window "Unable to initialize 3D output."

Please let me know if you have any remedy for this or can point me to a previous thread.

Thanks...!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You should look in AppDB first: http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.p ... n&iId=9194

Hi,

I have the same problem.

The strange thing is, GW was working for me already (on an older install, but now I have x68_64)

I receive the same error messages and already added the regestry entries.

Code: Select all

glxinfo | grep -i opengl
OpenGL vendor string: NVIDIA Corporation
OpenGL renderer string: GeForce 7600 GT/AGP/SSE2
OpenGL version string: 2.1.2 NVIDIA 180.51
OpenGL shading language version string: 1.20 NVIDIA via Cg compiler
OpenGL extensions:

Code: Select all

$  glxinfo | grep rendering
direct rendering: Yes

Any ideas?

This means 32-bit video driver libraries are missing and Wine can't use OpenGL.
Contact your distro support with how to properly install all parts of the video driver.

Stupid me :roll:

It was the missing package lib32-nvidia-utils (on Arch Linux).

Thanks for the hint.
