Bug ID: 43215 Summary: regression | freeze | nfsw.exe Product: Wine Version: 2.10 Hardware: x86-64 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: critical Priority: P2 Component: -unknown Assignee: wine-bugs@winehq.org Reporter: nfsgraine@gmail.com Distribution: ---
[Need for Speed World] The game freezes after I confirm my chat language/connect with other players.
I am using latest wine-staging 2.10(tried normal wine too). An experienced friend told me this particular problem gets solved with wine 1.6.x.
I don't know how to build a wine by myself so I tried a 1.6.2 with q4wine but now I get another problem, when I'm not on lowest graphics settings, it crashes with error "out of directx resources". Even at lowest settings, when I open a map or join a race, basically make it use more resources, it crashes with this directx error. I'm guessing it's because 1.6.2 didn't have support for my Pentium G4560's iGPU.
So now I can't effectively use 1.6.2 as well although it does fix the former freeze problem.
I would be grateful if this gets fixed.
