--- Comment #10 from GyB gyebro69@gmail.com 2010-03-19 15:03:21 --- Tried the full game (patched to 1.07, a no-cd crack was used, without DirectX installation) with Wine-1.1.40. The game showed the same issue as described in the original description: it shows only a black screen with the mouse cursor, sound is playing etc. I have also lots of 'fixme:d3d:transform_projection >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> GL_INVALID_VALUE (0x501) from glOrtho @ state.c / 3898' in the console.
A possible workaround that solved the problem for me: I de-selected the 'Full Screen' option in the config utility (Setup.exe). Now the game starts up without issues both in fullscreen and virtual-desktop mode, and running fine.
Can anyone else confirm this "trick" makes the game playable?
The demo version contains Starforce and I couldn't test it.
