Bug ID: 38397 Summary: World of Warcraft 3.3.5a in D3D mode does not launch after wine 1.7.40 Product: Wine Version: unspecified Hardware: x86-64 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown Assignee: wine-bugs@winehq.org Reporter: joelpartanen@tutanota.com Distribution: ---
Created attachment 51250 --> https://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=51250 Visible output when attempting to launch the program.
After updating to wine 1.7.40 from 1.7.39, I no longer seem to be able to launch World of Warcraft's client version 3.3.5a (Wrath of the Lich King) successfully in D3D mode.
Using OpenGL works, but playing in OpenGL lacks hardware mouse support and hence is not a viable option.
Older versions of World of Warcraft (1.12.1 and 2.4.3, Vanilla and TBC respectively) still run fine. Did not try clients above 3.3.5a.
The old clients, including the 3.3.5a client this report concerns, are used on playing and developing emulated versions of earlier versions game (private servers).
