[Bug 13871] New: Please add configuration parameter or command line parameter for color palette size
http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13871 Summary: Please add configuration parameter or command line parameter for color palette size Product: Wine Version: 1.0-rc4 Platform: PC OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: enhancement Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org ReportedBy: cngnome(a)gmail.com I have some children games, that require 256 colors. These games all say that I need 256 colors, althought I have 24 bit colors. This is symptom of bug 7334. Now, I do understand the issue explained there, but when I run these games in Windows, all I do is to go to to the specific program settings and set it to 256 colors. Imho it does not matter whether I really have 256 or more colors, it is just that the windows call that these games use does not take this situation on account and returns false even if you have more than 256 when it should only return false if you have less. And because wine mimics windows behaviour, it correctly states that you cannot use the game. So in wines perspective the program works correctly, but from the poor players perspective no. My suggestion to this is, that if you could add a parameter to registry to the game in question, winecfg or wine command line stating that wine now has 256 (or other amount of) colors instead of what the box in reality has, this would solve the issue. If I recall correctly, this is similar to the way Cedega works (I subscribed it for couple of years before wine got better than it). -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

Hover make sure you don't have any valuable information under ~/.wine. Because as soon as you change that, Wine won't start anymore. And no you can't just return bogus numbers to app - that's not the way windoze works. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.
