Summary: Warcraft 3 Frozen Throne battle.net chat is invisible Product: Wine Version: unspecified Platform: PC OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: wc3che@yahoo.com
Newer versions of Wine (at least 0.9.60+) have a bug that makes random players' chat invisible during the game. I have regressed to version 0.9.45, and the chat works, but now I have performance issues, zombie processes etc. Other then this, Warcraft 3 works well on Battle.net. This bug is completely reproducible by playing a 5v5 game of Dota on battle.net.
I'm running Ubuntu 8.04.
