[Bug 27344] New: The Witcher 2.0 (Gog.com): black screen on launch, have to kill X
http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=27344 Summary: The Witcher 2.0 (Gog.com): black screen on launch, have to kill X Product: Wine Version: 1.3.21 Platform: x86 OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org ReportedBy: dank(a)kegel.com On my ubuntu 11.04 laptop, where glxinfo | grep str says OpenGL renderer string: GeForce GTS 360M/PCI/SSE2 OpenGL version string: 3.3.0 NVIDIA 270.41.06 I can install Witcher 2 and run its config utility, but launching the game itself yields a black screen even if you tell it to run in a window on a virtual desktop. Killing the game doesn't fix the screen, so it kind of sounds like a problem with the X server. Some people in the appdb have reported success with winetricks glsl=disabled d3dx9 but that didn't help here. -- 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.
http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=27344 --- Comment #1 from Dan Kegel <dank(a)kegel.com> 2011-05-31 09:29:26 CDT --- Strangely, after I changed the game's resolution to 640x480 in bin/Configurator.exe, this problem went away, even when I returned to higher resolutions. -- 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.

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=27344 --- Comment #4 from Alex Bradbury <asb(a)asbradbury.org> 2011-05-31 12:53:18 CDT --- There's a GOG-specific version of the 1.1 patch (available under "additional content" under Witcher 2 in your GOG account page). Gog's version includes the release-day patch. I'm on Ubuntu 11.04 with binary nvidia drivers etc also - I'll see if I get the same crash. -- 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.
http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=27344 --- Comment #5 from Alex Bradbury <asb(a)asbradbury.org> 2011-05-31 15:35:37 CDT --- I tested and had the same experience as Dan Kegel. I'm also running Ubuntu 11.04 (though in x86-64), and with Nvidia binary drivers. OpenGL renderer string: GeForce GTX 260/PCI/SSE2 OpenGL version string: 3.3.0 NVIDIA 270.41.06 After saving settings once, I just get a blank screen but I can kill it as usual (winetricks glsl=disabled and d3dx9 does allow the game to work slowly). It's possible that the 'configurator' sets one of the values in the game configuration file to something other than the default (i.e. what it is freshly after install). Investigating this might help pin down the source of this problem. Though for me the game didn't even launch until I'd opened the configurator once and then exited. -- 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.

I confused myself, ignore this - this was when I was trying to use the launcher and instead I switched to launching the game directly.

The game needs an override (d3dx9_36) to run on my system, without the override there is a black screen but I don't need to kill X to work around it, I can just pop a console and kill the game executable. -- 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.
