[Bug 29261] New: DDR=opengl causes constant screen flickering in SimCity 3000 Demo in fullscreen mode
http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=29261 Bug #: 29261 Summary: DDR=opengl causes constant screen flickering in SimCity 3000 Demo in fullscreen mode Product: Wine Version: 1.3.34 Platform: x86-64 URL: http://www.shacknews.com/file/758/simcity-3000-playabl e-demo-windows OS/Version: Mac OS X Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: opengl AssignedTo: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org ReportedBy: lapommegolden(a)gmail.com CC: hverbeet(a)gmail.com Classification: Unclassified I've made a short video to demo the problem: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S9BI-xaRGJE URL for downloading SimCity 3000 Demo: http://www.shacknews.com/file/758/simcity-3000-playable-demo-windows URL for downloading AOE1 Trial: http://www.microsoft.com/games/empires/downloads.htm As far as i can tell, the flicker has been around since 1.1.5 at least. I have no idea to whether it is a new old bug or a regression. This flicker bug does affect quite some games on Mac OS X as far as I know. DirectDrawRenderer=opengl The flicker (& most of the time, supposedly also some random garbage from the video memory) will always be present when the game runs under fullscreen mode. NO flickering problem when the game runs in emulated virtual desktop mode.

Not only 2D, here http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=30497 Sacrifice has been mentioned, and this is a 3D game. I've got problems with 3D apps too. Well, there's only a screenshot in http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=30535, so it's hard to tell whether it resembles the flickering bug. But this is some kind of a graphic bug, and the Wine version when the problems started is similar.

Note that Might & Magic 9 is a 3D game, even though the rest are all pretty much 2D only. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Np8nT05Pz5M This problem does NOT manifest itself in System Shock 2 from GOG. In considering Might & Magic 9 vs. System Shock 2, I wonder if the bug only manifests itself with older versions of DirectX. Might & Magic 9 is from 2002 but uses LithTech 1.5 tech created sometime around 1998-99 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LithTech#1.5). This would imply that MM9 might be a DirectX 6 or 7 game. On an outside chance it could be DirectX 8. System Shock 2 from GOG uses the NewDark engine, which, according to this link (http://www.ttlg.com/forums/showthread.php?t=134733) requires DirectX 9. In fact, some other Googling seems to show that games using the latest DirectX 9 (9.0c?), at least, don't have this flickering issue. I think it would be a good idea to test games using DirectX 9.0b and down until the problem first manifests itself. Then, as you work your way down DirectX versions, the difference in what is happening between the last working game and the first broken game might reveal the source of the bug. Unfortunately, I'm not sure where to get a list of games broken down by the DirectX tech that they use. -- 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 some kind of broken optimization for fullscreen windows that copies the contents of the backbuffer to the frontbuffer without being asked to. Since we never draw to the (GL) backbuffer for a typical ddraw application, it just contains garbage, and that's what you're seeing. As a hack you could probably force a single buffered GL context for those applications, but that's not something we want in Wine. -- 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.

Thanks for the info, Henri! By saying it's an "OS X" bug I'm assuming you mean it's a bug in OS X itself (as a opposed to, say, XQuartz). Mostly just "not Wine", but it's likely to be in the OS or graphics drivers, since the bug depends on the version of OS X, and not so much on the version of XQuartz. (And also happens with the X server in CrossOver.)
Apple hasn't always been responsive about fixing these kinds of bugs. and indeed, this one has been spooking around since Lion was released. Since Apple doesn't seem the least inclined to fix it at all... now what?
I'm not trying to be confrontational, but I wonder, should OS X users just forget about being able to do fullscreen on some games because it's "not Wine's problem?" There are some workarounds like e.g. virtual desktop and the one mentioned in my previous comment, but essentially yes, unless you can convince Apple to fix it. I'm afraid that's just one of the disadvantages of using a proprietary OS.

https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=29261 wine(a)baldskirkja.org changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |wine(a)baldskirkja.org --- Comment #29 from wine(a)baldskirkja.org --- Bug is closed, but in case someone is researching the problem (like me) I wanted to share that this is not a retina display. I have seen no rhyme nor reason as to the success or failure. Both of my laptops (neither with retina displays, they are old and older) give severe flickering unless attached to an external monitor. My wife's laptop does not flicker. It works fine on my 5k iMac (definitely retina display there) and on an older (non-retina) iMac. The foregoing refers to a specific package of Diablo II - LOD made with bottler and thus providing a standalone, repeatable and segregated method of testing. The one fly in the ointment is that it is v1.12 and there are some reasonable bug fixes in 1.13 so I decided to make a foray into v1.14b -- but because of Blizzard's convoluted installation scheme I cannot get wine bottler to work. However, it works just fine in Crossover. And I was able to use that to cobble together a 1.14b bottle. Unfortunately, it is only flicker-free when first executed and thereafter exhibits flickering (only tested on the older and the 5k iMac. I don't recall if I've gotten around to testing it on one of the laptops. In short, despite being a closed bug, this *is* an issue with either wine or how it is configured (it works just fine with Crossover's wine, repeatedly, so either a difference in the wine code, in how wine is configured/the bottle created, or both). Apple hardware, drivers and retina displays are all distractions. (Addendum for the morbidly curious: As to why I don't just use the Blizzard provided mac build? It hangs frequently for 1 to 2 seconds for any or no reason, but playing the windows version via wine is nearly flawless. I just want a stable, standalone package rather than being dependent on Crossover's possibly changing behavior.) -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

After spending 2 hours of changing various stuff it turned out that the experimental CSMT feature (https://github.com/wine-compholio/wine-staging/wiki/CSMT) really FIXED the problem :)) -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.
