Bug ID: 43142 Summary: Wine incorrectly detects the maximum available in my system version of OpenGL when using AMD Radeon + MESA. Product: Wine Version: 2.9 Hardware: x86-64 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: major Priority: P2 Component: -unknown Assignee: wine-bugs@winehq.org Reporter: zefkerrigan@gmail.com Distribution: ---
Created attachment 58360 --> https://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=58360 On this screenshot this registry key is added it is seen that the game detects the availability of DirectX11. Unfortunately, only one screenshot can be attached to one message. Please see the second s
When using AMD Radeon + MESA, Wine incorrectly detects the maximum available in my system version of OpenGL as OpenGL3.0, but Mesa 17.1.1 supports OpenGL4.5 for my model of graphics hardware. This leads to the fact that games launched with Wine do not detect the possibility of using D3DX11 and, as a result, they can not work if they do not have D3DX9 support, or work in D3DX9 mode if they have support of both D3DX9 and D3DX11. I know that it is possible to manually add this registry key to manually explicitly set the maximum available in my system version of OpenGL:
glversion_fix.reg
REGEDIT4 [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Wine\Direct3D] "DirectDrawRenderer"="opengl" "UseGLSL"="enabled" "MaxVersionGL"=dword:00040005
But, in my opinion, it would be better if the maximum available version of OpenGL could be detected automatically. Moreover, not everyone knows about the possibility of adding this registry key. And not everyone even knows how to detect the maximum available version of OpenGL in their systems. Unfortunately, this does not correspond to reality. Please take a look at these two different screenshots when the game "World of Warcraft" is running. On one of them this registry key is added it is seen that the game detects the availability of DirectX11. And on the other, this key is not added, and note that in this case the game detects the availability of only DiretX9.
