Summary: Lost usability in Unreal Tournament... Product: Wine Version: 0.9.40. Platform: PC OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: trivial Priority: P2 Component: test AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: the_eternal_dark@yahoo.com
After installing Unreal Tournament GOTY in version 0.9.40 of Wine, I found that shortly after install, the setup .exe doesn't create all needed files under Wine anymore (I got a new computer a few days ago and installed the latest version). It will boot after a fresh install while the disk is still in (choosing run after installing), but I ran into something quite weird here as well while setting up the video config. I tried setting it to to the DirectX support, it loaded the intro movie, then crashes, received an error in Wine afterwards about a Direct X failure, but it disappeared before I could read any further I then tried software mode. Same thing. OpenGL would load to the menu but with an insanely messed up resolution (5xx x 3xx) and any attempts to change anything in the options menu would crash the game. I've tried 5 installs so far and went even as far to borrow a copy from a friend of mine to see if my copy was defunct (its seen better days), but the same thing happened on there as well. I'm not a prorgrammer so I couldn't tell you what exactly is happening at the code level, only from a user level. Sorry if this all sounds confusing, I tried to explain it as best I could.
