Another instance not involving text can be seen in Touhou Bunkachou ~ Shoot the
Bullet, where camera images are not shown during play and on the high-scores
screen.

The Shoot The Bullet bug is seperate. See the comment at
http://www.pooshlmer.com/touhouwiki/index.php/Talk:Running_in_Linux - The
photos are written to a scratch texture, which wine doesn't allow.

Ahh, thanks. I'll mark that obsolete. Please upload your terminal output in a

The text of all games (Touhou 6 to 12) Works fine here when using the DIB
engine. Is it only Touhou 10 that gives you the problem? Does the older games
work fine?

Touhou 6, 7, and 8 are fixed by the patch. Touhou 10 dialog is still mostly
unreadable.

Touhou 11 and 12 can't run above 10fps in Wine on my hardware even with the
proper DLL files. It's a separate bug. >_<

th07 - Perfect Cherry Blossom with winex11 patch applied

Roderick Colenbrander posted a patch on wine-devel, intended to fix alpha
handling:

http://www.winehq.org/pipermail/wine-devel/2009-July/077500.html

That patch changes the apperance on Touhou games 6-9. Later games are
unaffected by the change.

Differences:

Black rectangles now only appear directly behind text, making the black
rectangles smaller when the patch is applied. Text background is still black.
This is a step in the right direction.

Text get colored for some reason when the patch is applied. This is less good
as the text is white both in unpatched Wine and in Windows.

As of todays GIT, this bug should be over. I haven't been able to test it due
to some input issues in the game in recent Wine version but in theory it should
all work fine now.

Sorry, not totally fixed. It looks a lot better now, but there are still black
boxes underneath a lot of the text in the game. What the patch did is that it
restricted the black boxes to areas directly underneath text, thus making them
smaller.

See picture for current difference of the look in wine-1.1.30-287-g3c98992 and
Windows XP.

I just tried the th07 game again. I still see the black bars around the text
but I don't think the bug is in the xrender code anymore. The game seems to be
using d3d8, so I wouldn't be surprised if the bug is somewhere there now.

Have tested th07 and th08 in wine 1.1.35. Both look perfect now. Still
remaining readability issues in later games are covered by bug 15146 .

This bug is fixed as far as I can tell.

I don't appreciate this bug being repeatedly closed when we are still no closer
to having it actually being fixed for Touhou 10 and later, the versions that
this bug affects most widely.

The text is still barely visible and should not be transparent. The DIB work
hasn't addressed this either.

See comment #30 it says remaining readability issues in later games are covered
by bug 15146 which is titled "Touhou 10, 11 dialogue text transparent,
difficult to read"
