This will then run but the colours are warped so run it in Xephyr 16 bit then and the cut scenes and battles work. However, the background textures are doubled over.

For the dll, the one in the DirectX folder on the cd has md5sum: 7cfb6efb41b680b1e8a1691255115ac4 and there is a custom patch on dark-omen.org which might be better to use, that has md5sum: a8bb6b9179b88536a65fb1742dad2532.

https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=29521 --- Comment #31 from padraig <padraig_mac(a)hotmail.com> --- Might be worth trying to set up a clean prefix anyway as at some stage I had it working on system wine but after messing with dlls to try to fix the texture issue it went to the black screen and I couldn't get it working again. The clean prefix with the ddraw.dll fixed it. Note that if you don't open it in Xephyr (or something with 16 bit colour) the cut scene starts as black but you'll hear "Electronic Arts" so you could think it hasn't worked, press Escape or something first to get out of the cut scene. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

So I simply removed everything from PRG_ENG directory and replaced it with contents of DarkOmenMods.zip you linked. Then everything started working and Xephyr helped to solve the issue with palette. Thanks, I guess your guide may be used as a workaround for the game. However I'm still not sure about dlls. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=29521 --- Comment #33 from padraig <padraig_mac(a)hotmail.com> --- Well that's great that it works, odd that they worked in the folder with the exe but not in system32 but still. I presume you have issues with the background textures being doubled over? I have an error in the console which seems to be with dplay, I tried using dplay.dll and dplayx.dll that were in the CDs Directx folder but they didn't make a difference. Also I don't know how to upscale it, I don't have to use Xephyr for Shadow of the Horned Rat which is also 16 bit colour and that runs well in full screen. It would be nice to run this larger than a little window anyway. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=29521 --- Comment #34 from padraig <padraig_mac(a)hotmail.com> --- Just a further update for how the texture mirroring can be fixed. Download the ddraw.dll and config file from here: http://www.bitpatch.com/ddwrapper.html Put them in the same directory as EngRel.exe and in the config file set BltMirror=1 Then use winecfg to add ddraw to the overrides library as native first and then the textures will render correctly. I should also point out that everything I've said doesn't work with the original executable, you need to use the hexedited one which is one of the executables in here: http://www.mediafire.com/file/fnnkq89xdjy75m0/DarkOmenMods.zip/file (There are other ones around dark-omen.org too but I haven't tested them all).

https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=29521 --- Comment #35 from RealGecko <alexandrbezenkov(a)gmail.com> --- Sorry for late reply. I guess that's what was the cause of the issue, I used original .exe an it did not work, then I just replaced everything in PRG_ENG (including .exe) and it did work. Thing to note: I did not have texture doubling issue when I was running through Xephyr. I guess my setup is somehow different from yours. Maybe it's due to video driver?

https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=29521 --- Comment #36 from padraig <padraig_mac(a)hotmail.com> --- I initially had the main executable working after some messing with dlls without the hex edit (apart from the texture flip), but I'm not sure which dlls I used as I wasn't able to replicate it on a new wine prefix so then had to use one of the edited executables. I tried it another machine today and still have the texture flipping and again, required the edited exe. My main laptop has an Nvidia graphics card but it is currently uninstalled so I should try it with that and see if that affects anything.
