[Bug 26986] New: The Sims 3 blacks out the screen immediately when starting.
http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=26986 Summary: The Sims 3 blacks out the screen immediately when starting. Product: Wine Version: 1.3.14 Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: major Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org ReportedBy: open.jacob.a.brown(a)gmail.com Created an attachment (id=34415) --> (http://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=34415) Output from terminal Installed fine on Ubuntu 10.10 but the screen goes black when the game starts and I can only exit the game by killing the process. I installed Directx 9.0c and set the Options.ini file to use windowed mode with 800x600 1 resolution and that didn't fix this. I have seen others with the same concern in the Wine forum and in at least two other forums related to Ubuntu. This was my third attempt at installing The Sims 3 on this system having used Wine, Winetricks and Playonlinux. My system is a Acer Aspire Timeline X laptop 4820T-7633. It has the bear minimum hardware to run the game, but I have tested on WinXP and it ran fine. -- 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.

Would I need to reinstall the game as well? Also I have Playonlinux so I have multiple versions of the Wine API, so if I need to reinstall anyway then I would do so on one of those versions. If I can upgrade/downgrade without reinstalling, then I will do that. -- 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 doubt the installation of the game affects this bug. Additionally, PlayOnLinux is not supported here, please use plain Wine when reporting/testing bugs. -- 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 used Wine to install the game the last time but I went ahead and uninstall Playonlinux. The upgrade failed because my network dropped and the game disappointed, so I had to start from scratch. I hope it works this time. -- 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 transfered the drive over and now I need to know how to set the wine prefixes for all the apps on the drive. I don't know if The Sims 3 works but if I can get wine off the drive to work I can test it out. If I can't get this to work I could reinstall again. -- 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.
