Summary: Arx Fatalis locks up with a edited option on the config file Product: Wine Version: 1.3.11 Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: i30817@gmail.com
This might be closed as not relevant but.
In a attempt to avoid the extreme slowness of arx fatalis on menus, i attempted to change the setting on its config file "cfg_default.ini" forcegdi to 0 instead of 1
This immediatly made the intro movie smoother, but locks up the game AND linux as soon as it reaches the menu. I searched on google and it seems that on windows it is possible to run it like this...
The game code was recently released as open source (GPLV3 i think). I can't avoid the lockup, it locks up my dual core computer completely so the only solution is to power cycle. I thought you might be interested in a bug that manages to lock up linux.
Here is the last patch and source code:
