Bug #: 31161 Summary: Need For Speed Hot Pursuit (2010): GL_INVALID_ENUM (0x500) from glTexSubImage2D Product: Wine Version: 1.5.8 Platform: x86 OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: directx-d3d AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: vanuan@gmail.com Classification: Unclassified
I tried running the game under opensource video drivers and couldn't see the menu. Also I have a plenty of messages:
err:d3d_surface:surface_upload_data >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> GL_INVALID_ENUM (0x500) from glTexSubImage2D @ surface.c / 2369
Googling around: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=49484 tells it is because "an application tries to use a (D3D) format (e.g. DXT/s3tc) even though it's not available."
I think it is a bug in wine. It should check for available formats and stop if requested is not available and print a message how to fix it.
