--- Comment #7 from Michael Scholz michael-shz@web.de 2008-07-07 02:20:27 --- The influence of a disabled pixel shader is that objects like paintings appear black. The most obvious object was the entrance sign of the "Skyline Apartment".
The game worked with wine as distributed with OpenSuse 10.3. I am not 100% sure if it was wine 9.44 as I recognized the error only after updating.
