Bug #: 32345 Summary: Window is not refreshed when inactive in Alien8 and Head Over Heels Product: Wine Version: 1.5.18 Platform: x86-64 URL: http://retrospec.sgn.net/ OS/Version: Windows Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: minor Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: markk@clara.co.uk Classification: Unclassified
This issue applies to at least two game remakes available from http://retrospec.sgn.net/
Alien8: http://retrospec.sgn.net/game-links.php?link=alien8 Head Over Heels: http://retrospec.sgn.net/game-links.php?link=hoh
Source code is available for Alien8.
I'm testing with wine-1.5.18-114-ga61f68f, Lubuntu 11.10 x86-64, Nvidia driver 304.64.
When the game window is inactive it is no longer refreshed properly. So for example, if you drag another window in front of the game window, the game window fills with copies of the decorations of the window you're dragging.
Also, the game sound is supposed to stop when the window becomes inactive. Under Wine it keeps looping.
To reproduce: - Download and install Alien8 and/or Head Over Heels - Run the game. Alien8 defaults to full-screen mode, so you'll need to change that to windowed first. For Head Over Heels, press space a couple of times to get to the main menu. - Drag another window over the game window.
