--- Comment #12 from Pete pete@sectorgame.com --- Try applying the following OpenGL patch to Descent 3: https://sectorgame.com/d3/downloads/?nav=display&file=864
Replace the MAIN.EXE file with the one inside the zip.
In addition, use these command lines in the Descent 3 launcher: -launched -usesmoothing -nomultitexture -himem -hividmem -subpixelcorrect -nocompress -nointro -nooutragelogo -nosparkles -nomotionblur -z32bit
Double check that OpenGL is selected in the renderer options before proceeding.
Additional commands such as these can be used to set resolution: -width 1920 -height 1080 -aspect 1.78 (mash ingame keys - and + to adjust viewport)
Failing that, attempt to use the nGlide Wrapper and select 3DFX Glide in the setup options.
I haven't had any luck with Descent 3 in fullscreen on Wine, it could be my environment, but the game is always invisible - yet still running. Instead I've opted to run the game in a windowed wine environment, applying the same resolution to the wine configuration and the game launcher.
