[Bug 28114] New: Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic II can't be played on fullscreen
http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=28114 Summary: Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic II can't be played on fullscreen Product: Wine Version: 1.3.26 Platform: x86 OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: directx-d3d AssignedTo: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org ReportedBy: samurai_no_densetsu(a)yahoo.es This seems to be an ancient unreported bug (circa 2007), but it didn't changed. Star Wars Kotor II still can't go into fullscreen, although it can be played on virtual desktop, fullscreen or creating a new X DISPLAY, but not in the default X session for some reason. This leads to the unpleasant situation of having to workaround in some nasty way. Also, there are issues changing resolutions. Aside of this, game is perfectly playable.

still a bug in current wine?
Yes, just tried with 1.5.16 via PlayOnLinux in Linux Mint 13/Maya (GPU is nVidia 8700M GT with proprietary drivers) because I thought that Wine may handle KOTOR2 better than Vista (it uses OpenGL after all). The game seems to run in a window no matter what. Also, you can't choose higher resolutions in the KOTOR2 config utility unless you emulate a virtual desktop. If you try to run the game this way, however, it tends to crash. Unfortunately, the widescreen mod requires running at 1600x1200, so it seems that's not really an option for me. If you run with or without emulating a virtual desktop and at anything higher than the lowest resolutions, the window tends to severely cut off the right and/or bottom sides of the game display. The net effect is that I'm stuck playing in a very small window. Also, the game seems to randomly not respond to keyboard input. I was not able to enter a custom name for my character. -- 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.

It looks like you're still using PoL or at least it's prefix. Please try in plain wine in a clean prefix. Also be sure that H:\ is a native linux partition and not FAT/NTFS.

If you have a Windows license, you could try with a native a3dapi.dll Dont't forget to register it That's a red herring, as the game does not require A3D.
I tried installing the 3.12 driver ( http://members.optusnet.com.au/kirben/drivers.html ) which adds software A3D support, and it makes things worse by causing Wine to lock up with the following debug log: fixme:system:SystemParametersInfoW Unimplemented action: 94 (SPI_GETMOUSETRAILS) err:ole:COMPOBJ_DllList_Add couldn't load in-process dll L"" err:ole:CoGetClassObject no class object {d8f1eee0-f634-11cf-8700-00a0245d918b} could be created for context 0x1 Note that the SPI_GETMOUSETRAILS log was happening before, too, but I missed it because it was logged on the same line as a shell prompt. -- 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 just tried that, and the results are exactly the same: config util only allows 1600x1200 if I emulate virtual desktop, and then game runs in a window and crashes on startup after showing the splash screens/videos. H: is mapped to my Linux home directory, which is I think ext4. It's on the same partition as the OS. I think I've figured something out, though: The crash doesn't happen if I disable movies, and the game runs in pseudo-fullscreen if I use a virtual desktop. All of this seems to be related to the fact that the game tries to change the (virtual) display to a lower resolution while showing movies, which apparently wine is not handling very well. I seem to remember that either the HQ movie pack or the widescreen mod may patch the movies to run at higher resolution, which may make things work better. Neither disabling movies nor installing hacks should be a required workaround for a good out-of-the-box experience with Wine, however, and people are therefore being too generous with their platinum ratings. -- 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.

Can you still play Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic II in a Virtual Desktop?
I believe I was finally able to get it to do so by disabling movies, which isn't really a sufficiently viable outcome. -- 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=28114 --- Comment #16 from Ben Shadwick <benshadwick(a)gmail.com> --- Update: It seems to be better in wine-1.7.9 but still has some problems. The game now launches in fullscreen, but the only available resolution is the default of 800x600x32 (my native LCD resolution is 1920x1200x32). I tried changing the resolution via editing swkotor2.ini, but it made no difference because wine is telling the game that 800x600x32 is the only available resolution supported by the GPU. I also tried enabling the "emulate a virtual desktop" settign in winecfg, but that also made no difference. The mouse cursor was missing as well, so I had to follow the advice of others who said to set EnableHardwareMouse=0 in swkotor2.ini. I additionally noticed that the game likes to pop in and out of fullscreen and/or temporarily disappear a lot, especially if you try to alt+tab or interrupt movies. This is rather annoying. Also, for reference, I'm running the Steam version now and was previously trying the disc version. Not sure if it makes a difference. -- 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.
