App defaults and registry

Post by ulberon »

I was curious, if I set app defaults in the registry (in this case Direct3D), lets say, I change 'RenderTargetLockMode' to 'readtex' (for a specific application). And in the default portion of the registry I have unrelated values in the same key, for instance, in default I have 'VideoMemorySize' is 512. Do I have duplicate the default values for each application (that is, duplicate what is in the general area of the registry for each application) or will they be intact?

Thanks

No you do not need to duplicate them. If Wine can't find app specific settings it will try globals. And if they are not found then Wine will use hard-coded defaults.
