Summary: Panzer General 2 doesn't work Product: Wine Version: 0.9.54. Platform: PC-x86-64 OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P3 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: mdemolins@gmail.com
Hello all,
I use Fedora 8 and wine 0.9.54 (the rpm provided by the official repos).
Wine appears somewhat ok. Anyways, I'm trying to run a W95/98 game, Panzer General 2. The Wine site says it works fine. http://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?iVersionId=124 2
I was able to get the game running by changing to a Virtual Desktop and it loads to the main menu screen fine. However, after I start a scenario, the game loads up with the game control menu, but the central part of the screen where the map of the scenario should be doesn't change. It just stays the same graphic as the previous main menu screen. Clicking on the button to look at the strategic map crashes the game. Basically it appears anything with some bit of graphics doesn't work.
I've changed Emulation to W95 or W98 for the program, and also played with the Video modes, but none of this helps. Any ideas? It looks like a video problem.
From the below error message, I'm wondering if I can change to an 8-bit window
for the game to work.
Note : 1. this bug seems to be exactly the same that when I wanted to use PG2 under Win XP without having set the "Win 95/98 compatibility mode" in the properties of its desktop shortcut. 2. I use the official game CD to install and run the game, not an ISO (I've bought it).
