Wine 8.21 (Staging Arch Linux | Failed to Initialize Direct3D

Post by nmusr »

i tried installing a game, and the error says" Failed to Initialize Direct3D. Old graphics cards do not support this. Also make sure version 8.0 or later of DirectX is installed on your machine.

Often you can see what is going wrong in the terminal output.
If I have to guess now, make sure you have the libGL.so.1 files installed.

Code: Select all

# For Debian/ Ubuntu/ Mint use:
sudo apt install libgl1:{amd4,i386}
