Summary: Civilization IV complete edition can't start due to directx Product: Wine Version: unspecified Platform: x86 OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: Jean.Emploi@free.fr
Created an attachment (id=26616) --> (http://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=26616) Error message in a window says "Error:Creation failed: Could not match desired fullscreen mode"
When trying to start the game, a splash screen gets displayed and goes through several init steps. It crashed at the "Init Engine" step with an error message "Error:Creation failed: Could not match desired fullscreen mode" (see 1st attachment). The console window displays many error messages like this one "err:d3d:IWineD3DImpl_IsPixelFormatCompatibleWithRenderFmt Unable to check compatibility for Format=WINED3DFMT_R32G32B32A32_FLOAT" (see 2nd attachment).
In the end, I can't play civilization IV using wine. :(
My setup :
Civilization IV Complete edition (DVD from retail, includes WARLORDS and BEYOND THE SWORD expansion packs)
Ubuntu 9.10
wine 1.39
nvidia geforce 7300 LE, using proprietary driver v. 185.18.36
I also tried installing d3d9 using winetricks. It did not help.

--- Comment #4 from Jean Jean.Emploi@free.fr 2010-03-05 12:12:17 --- I tried the virtual desktop. It did not help : same error window in the end (could not match desired fullscreen mode) and similar-looking error messages in the console.
Here is the output of xrandr :

--- Comment #5 from Xavier Vachon xvachon@gmail.com 2010-10-21 10:30:41 CDT --- How can we reproduce this in current git (currently 1.3.5)? Did you use any particular overrides to start the game?

--- Comment #6 from Jean Jean.Emploi@free.fr 2010-11-17 06:52:49 CST --- Unfortunately, I can't answer your question.
After much tweaking, I eventually managed to run CIV IV. I unfortunately don't remember how I did it. I think I must have tried every solution ever mentioned in CIV IV pages on the wine site. And some combination must have worked.
I will not have enough time for testing with a fresh install of a more recent version of wine.
