Titanium and Wine

[renoofturks1]

Your problem is your lack of an NVidia graphics card. Most likely you have an ATI, which, unfortunately, has the worst linux driver's in the goddamn world.

It is a laptop that has an nvidia card, I only use nvidia =)

laptop specs:

CPU Type Intel Core 2 Duo T9400 2.53G
Screen 15.4" WSXGA+
Memory Size 4GB DDR2
Hard Disk 500GB - 2 (250G 7200RPM in Raid 0)
Graphics Card NVIDIA GeForce 9800M GS
Video Memory 512MB DDR3

Running Gentoo Linux AMD64 version with Wine 1.1.10 and nvidia-drivers version 177.82

I am using xfce4 desktop with a user account set up just for gaming with compositing and desktop effects turned off.

The wine website has a .dll you can DL to fix the model issue.

I tried that .dll right after I installed the game and it did not work. I belive that .dll is for the newer live client.

Dunno then, I use Cedega and it runs fine on mine.

I have a copy of crossover games maybe I will give that a shot before I jump into another cedega subscription. Wish I saved my old cedega binaries, however they never worked for my anyway. Must be newer versions.

I have Titanium working with wine, but I had to patch & recompile wine for it to work. From the bug report on the appdb page for EQ:

So while we wait for a dev answer about this the 'fix' that replaces the prior
'HOWTO' is as follows:

Add this line:

pCaps->MaxVertexBlendMatrices=0x4;

In file:

(your wine source directory)/dlls/d3d9/device.c

At function:

IDirect3DDevice9Impl_GetDeviceCaps(LPDIRECT3DDEVIC E9 iface, D3DCAPS9* pCaps)

Before returning (return hrc, line 176 (as of 0.9.55)

Build wine as usual and happy Everquesting

"Works For Me". HTH!
