Bug ID: 41425 Summary: Everquest Titanium (Project 1999) crashes if you start in fullscreen Product: Wine Version: 1.9.19 Hardware: x86 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown Assignee: wine-bugs@winehq.org Reporter: aaronbpaden@gmail.com Distribution: ---
If you install EverQuest Titanium, it crashes by default because it starts in fullscreen mode. I'm using wine-staging, but I think I remember seeing this in stable as well.
From the logs, it looks like the game is trying to switch to 1280x720 and
failing, though xrandr tells me my display does support this resolution.
The workaround is to either edit the config and switch to windowed mode, or use a virtual desktop at 1280x720. The game does support widescreen modes in fullscreen, and they do work, but using those modes don't prevent the crash at startup. As a result, if you want to play fullscreen you have to start in windowed mode and then switch to fullscreen in game, then switch back to windowed mode before you quit.
I'm using WINEARCH=win32, winecfg is set to Windows XP, and a clean wine prefix.
The last few lines repeated about a million times before I killed the process. I cut those out for convenience.
