[Bug 10081] New: City of Heroes does not run if asked to use a dual core processor
http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10081 Summary: City of Heroes does not run if asked to use a dual core processor Product: Wine Version: 0.9.47. Platform: PC OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P3 Component: test AssignedTo: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org ReportedBy: matthew.b.gerber(a)gmail.com If I run CohUpdater.exe with the -renderthread 1 flag to inform it of the presence of a dual-core processor, the game appears to: * Enter an endless loop (continually spamming SetLayeredWindowAttributes calls to the terminal Wine was run from) rather than finishing loading, and * Mess up at least part of the Wine registry while doing it (graphics settings are lost after the game and Wine are killed, whereas they're properly saved after a normal session. CoH is optimized for dual-core processors; top confirms that it isn't detecting the dual-core processor on its own under Wine.

It appears that it's being disabled automatically though when running via Wine because of: Disabling multi-threaded rendering because ATI drivers are older than 6.6? running Ubuntu 8.10, Wine 1.1.8, nvidia video, core 2 duo processor.

Still haven't figured out how to send it arbitrary driver info to see if that's the issue or something else is causing it. I'll try to get some fresh logs posted.

I see the hang is because the renderthread tries to do SetPixelFormat, but Wine's implementation of SetPixelFormat sends a Wine-specific message to the game window, which is owned by the main thread (not the render thread). In the meantime, the main thread is running a tight loop doing Sleep() calls until the render thread is done initializing, and does not process window messages. -- 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 took a look at the SetPixelFormat on painting.c but I don't see how it's possible that the render thread don't receive it, but the main window does. If you have more information I'll be glad to help. -- 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.

If you aren't a good enough programmer to understand this problem when it has already been diagnosed, then you're certainly not qualified to fix it. Even a qualified programmer would probably not try to fix it without proposing and discussing possible solutions with Alexandre himself. If this bug is important to you, the best you can do is probably to remind the core developers of the problem. -- 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.
