Hi Austin, it seems, that situation change for me with new nVidia. It looks like, that the regression test is valid only for nVidia 8600GT.
With GT 240 the game runs when memory is set to 67MB and lower in registry even under wine-1.3.3. Can you confirm?
Note: don't forget to turn off 3D acceleration in BGConfig.exe before testing, otherwise you are testing under OpenGL (i guess).
I am having the same issue: Your graphics card: GeForce 8200/PCI/SSE2/3DNOW! Your distribution: Ubuntu Your distribution version: 10.10 Current Wine version: wine-1.3.10 Wine version used by PlayOnLinux: wine-1.3.10
Sorry, I'm not sure what other information might be useful for resolving the issue. I can only confirm that I am seeing the same issue. I've tried the current 1.2 and 1.3 versions of Wine available for Ubuntu. When I set my DirectDrawRenderer to OpenGL, the game launches, but I have black boxes following my cursor.
I saw the suggestion that enabling 3D acceleration would resolve the issue. I tried to enable 3D acceleration in BGConfig.exe, but enabling 3D acceleration failed silently in the test step.
If there is any information I can provide that would help address the bug, I would be happy to try to find it. Sorry again, I just don't know what information would be useful.
