--- Comment #3 from Jos Ewert flami@flami.net 2009-09-16 07:00:32 --- Yes the problem is still present in wine-1.1.29: "trace:d3d_caps:shader_glsl_get_caps Hardware vertex shader version 3.0 enabled (GLSL) trace:d3d_caps:shader_glsl_get_caps Hardware pixel shader version 3.0 enabled (GLSL)"
On the other hand any R500 and older cards are unsupported since fglrx 9.4 It was quite a lot of work to get it working again ( downgrading libdrm ... ). So this issue might have resolved itself.
( SM3 is supported from ATI R520 and up )
