Implementing a new Direct3D function
by Jérôme Gardou 09 Mar '08

09 Mar '08

I'm trying to implement some direct3d functions, more precisely the GetImageInfoFromFile* ones. These are present in directX 8 and in d3dx9_xx.dll I wondered what is the best way to do this : 1)Implementing it in d3dx8.dll and forward everything to this one. 2) Make some useful functions in wined3d and then use them from d3dx8. 3) Implement them directly in wined3d, forwarding everything to it. 4) An other way ? Cheers. Jérôme ___________________________________________________________________________ Yahoo! Mail réinvente le mail ! Découvrez le nouveau Yahoo!

Re: [PATCH 4/6] wined3d: Make code safe if there are no device palettes.

I'll mention some others below. The p8 code is very sensitive to bugs and those are most of the time very hard to fix, so I'm quite strict. Various things need to be tested using testcases before this patch (cut in pieces) can make it in. In case of read_from_framebuffer when there is no palette set, just return directly instead of adding an if(pal) check. The function won't do anything useful without a palette. Further read_from_framebuffer shouldn't get called from d3d8/9 games anyway as there aren't p8 render targets. I wonder if we need SetDibColorTable at all in case of GetDC as the data the app will receive in the hdc is 8bit. It wants to draw in it by hand, so I would say that the palette won't matter. It might require a testcase. The removal of the device palette code from RealizePalette can be done in a separate patch. I'm not sure if change in SetColorKey is correct in the case a surface doesn't have a palette and uses the primary surface its palette. It doesn't feel right. I think it should fail but this requires a testcase. Second even if the call to SetDibColorTable is needed I wonder what should happen on surfaces which don't have a palette set. It might be correct to use the palette of the primary surface but it might also just be an illegal situation. Roderick -- Ist Ihr Browser Vista-kompatibel?

Re: ddraw: Implement ForceRefreshRate registry entry for overriding DirectX refresh rate

I have two concerns: First, do you have an application that needs this, or is this just for making this aspect of ddraw compatible with Windows? There's nothing wrong with that in principle, but I am curious I do not really like the name DDRAW_SetDisplayMode. It somewhat goes away from the convention by starting with DDRAW, but yet it does not tell more about what the function does.

Tons of shader recompilation in TRLegend and screen set issues
by Artur Szymiec 08 Mar '08

08 Mar '08

Greetings, I would like to point out 3 issues with TR Legend game: 1) wine is outputing a ton of messages like: fixme:d3d_shader:IWineD3DVertexShaderImpl_CompileShader Vertexshader 0x13fb3028 recompiled more than 50 times fixme:d3d_shader:IWineD3DVertexShaderImpl_CompileShader Vertexshader 0x13fb3028 recompiled more than 50 times fixme:d3d_shader:IWineD3DVertexShaderImpl_CompileShader Vertexshader 0x13fb3028 recompiled more than 50 times fixme:d3d_shader:IWineD3DVertexShaderImpl_CompileShader Vertexshader 0x13fb3028 recompiled more than 50 times fixme:d3d_shader:IWineD3DVertexShaderImpl_CompileShader Vertexshader 0x13fb3028 recompiled more than 50 times fixme:d3d_shader:IWineD3DVertexShaderImpl_CompileShader Vertexshader 0x13fb3028 recompiled more than 50 times 2) the game itself contain a gfx config dialog. Then at next startup it should use this settings saved somewhere (I guess registry) but instead it dosen't - always running the game will bring the config in the first place. Why is that ? 3) Still something is wrong with the vertex shaders and buffers - see this screenshoot: http://img171.imageshack.us/my.php?image=screen3ub0.jpg And the tons of shader compilation warnings happens in every water scene like in the screenshoot.

Hi, I'm going to try to implement AcceptEx this weekend. Just wanted to ask if I should write it using unix sockets, or using the existing ws2_32 implementation. Thanks.

Further testing indicates that a lot more needs to change than what's in this patch. It might be best to hold off on it until I know everything that needs to be done. - Nathan

With this fully dll implemented tehre would be no need. > "Finishing the implementation of d3dx9_36" would be a bit too much i guess, for doing that in 2/3 months. I like the idea though, better "do some work" on d3dx9_36 Further i would find it nice if a project proposal would be something like "write a dxdiag.exe". Something like a fancy spinning cube with wine-logo, and frame-rate counter or something the like. This would allow users to quickly test if they have set up their opengl/directX stuff correctly, and if they have hardware acceleration enabled. This would be something that could be easily done in 2/3 months

re: Problem open files/folders with ShellExecute

Wine really should make ShellExecute work just as you expect, but I don't know how long it'll be until we get around to it. For now, you can detect that you're running on Wine (e.g. if getenv("LOGNAME") is not NULL), and then use the command xdg-open to open the directory or .mp3 file. To prove to yourself this works, try wine cmd /c z:\\usr\\bin\\xdg-open foo.mp3 or wine cmd /c z:\\usr\\bin\\xdg-open /usr That will open the file or directory in the appropriate native app. The only catch is that the path passed to xdg-open has to be a Unix path. You can use the executable winepath to convert Windows paths to Unix paths. To prove to yourself this works, try this: wine cmd /c winepath c:\ This will output the Unix path, /home/dkegel/.wine/dosdevices/c:/ And then you have to be careful about paths with spaces in them, etc. It's a bit of a pain at the moment. If you go down this route, put it in a helper function so you can rip it out easily later. (And so you can share the helper function with others.) - Dan p.s.
