That's not true (at least for me and a lot of people).

In my case (AMD Phenom II X2 550 + 4gb DDR2 + nvidia gtx260) in Directx (Windows 7 32bits) I get about 120fps (SM4, max resolution and everything on)...but in OpenGL I get about 40fps...and in Ubuntu 32bits it gets a little worse (I am going to try it with Gentoo 64).

Read this thread: http://www.regnumonline.com.ar/forum...ad.php?t=62436

Actually, I thought about trying it in Ubuntu because of the great fps difference....but Wine translates Directx calls into OpenGL calls. So, at first I thought it was nonsense and got rid of ubuntu and installed Gentoo (did it because of my "trying different distros" addiction, not for Ro

)

Buuut, the reason why OpenGL sucks in Regnum is because of the way the game was programmed. So, there is a chance that Wine's translations from Directx into OpenGl may be better than the client's OpenGl programming. I know it's a long shot, but it's a possibility...

Regards, when I get RO running in Gentoo I'll post my results (in the other thread

), I still have to download the 64bit client

We never know, one day wine using the implementation of the Direct3D API with Gallium3D drivers might even be faster than running any game in windows.

As for the question "WHY?", I just wanted to say that I played another game with a native Linux-client in wine for quite some time, because the graphics drivers were bugged and the native client would not work. So if we, for any reason, gets a nasty regression that will prevent people from playing RO natively, it's always nice to know if/how to run it in wine. I guess.

I have GM965, game runs in a safe mode.. not that fps is playable.

I gave it a further try. I copied native wininetd.dll to wine and set it to native in winecfg.
Now the network related errors on the terminal completely disappear. However at the introvideo there is still a crashed message which you can ignore. On the first loading screen it will stop at the half with an connection error (download indicator at the bottom shows downloading 0 kb/s all the time).
error_log.txt is filled with this

Code:

[05/10/2010 11:31:30] [HTTP Retriever][lighttpd_retriever.cpp(279)] Connection timeout downloading resource 32232. Retrying.
[05/10/2010 11:31:30] [HTTP Retriever][lighttpd_retriever.cpp(280)] Bytes received: 0, expected: 0

Some further debug attempt showed this on terminal

Code:

trace:winsock:WS2_recvfrom fd=133, options=0
warn:winsock:WS2_recvfrom  -> ERROR 10035

Happens with native winsock.dll as well. I have no further clue now

Ah yes there is bug on one dll must be disable i think...damn forgot what dll,grr is common bug of wine ...too many dll on my eyes this days...find winetricks script and ue him.there are planty of fixes for lots of thinks like fonts erro,directx error etc...you addet winhtp dllto winecfg?

Myxir · 10-05-2010, 12:20 PM

I think I encountered this problem a long time ago with online play of another game. I don't recall it.
The only thing that seemed interesting in winetricks was winhttp and wininet. But that did pretty much the same i already did by hand.
Winehttp is of course in winecfg

you tryed another version of winshock dll downloadet from interned or change way how it is loadet?...sorry just asking...i cant tell you for sure what it is that error ...

HidraA · 10-05-2010, 02:31 PM

Myxir ,please provide more lines from your log.
Error is normal one ,is not fault of networking.
Or watch what log says when you get that error,that error stop app and normal he will stop wine sever too from download.

Edited:

Get ride of all your dll configs,clean up all.
Nw make configs like in this screenshots.
Works like this using Opengl on game cfg.
Now i will take a look for make him to work with DirectX.

Myxir · 10-05-2010, 02:47 PM

In fact, this is the only log that wine throws.
The rest are just uninteresting d3d fixme.
I run with WINDEBUG=-all,+wininet,+winhttp,+winsock.
It spams my terminal with 1000000s of this lines. Between there is some keyboard related stuff. Nothing that points to an failure.

Code:

trace:winsock:WS2_recvfrom fd=133, options=0
warn:winsock:WS2_recvfrom  -> ERROR 10035

Afaik winsock Error 10035 is "Resource not available". So there might be a connection problem.
If I run wine with "WINEDEBUG=+all" it takes ages just to start up the launcher. I don't have the patience and time to do such things now.

Read up lol edited previos post

Also you need some dll from instalation folder of game

cp /Users/$USER/LiveServer/*.dll /Users/$USER/.wine/drive_c/windows/system32
This is path from mac...you know your path from linux
