Bug #: 34796 Summary: Flickery mouse cursor in Age of Empires II Product: Wine Version: 1.7.4 Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: directx-d3d AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: nicolas.alvarez+wbz@gmail.com Classification: Unclassified
I was using Age of Empires II in Wine 1.4.1 from Debian packages, and it worked fine in general. I upgraded to Wine 1.7.4, and the mouse cursor is now flickery, choppy, and sometimes jumps around randomly, making the game quite annoying to play. Other aspects of the game seem to have lower framerate too, but this is more subtle and I may be imagining things; the mouse cursor issue is definitely the most noticeable.
I also got some crashes, but they are rare, random, and hard to reproduce.
I ran a full git bisect between 1.4.1 and 1.7.4 (which took me quite a while), and identified 3c023a5db5538a7622d4518e8ce24d36e1c459b1 as the commit introducing this regression ("wined3d: Just set the first render target to NULL in wined3d_device_reset()"). The mouse cursor movement is absolutely smooth right before that change.

--- Comment #1 from nicolas.alvarez+wbz@gmail.com 2013-10-25 13:02:19 CDT --- After some more testing, I found that the cursor jumping around still happens without that commit, so that's not actually it. I did some more bisecting and got it down to this:
841214ddb4 made the mouse completely stop working in Age of Empires II, even in the game menu. a0f039a604 made it work again, but during the actual game, the mouse cursor sometimes jumps around randomly. For example, when making a selection by dragging, the selection rectangle corner sometimes jumps to a corner of the screen. It's not easy to describe.
The 3c023a5db5 commit I mentioned before affects general graphics performance and makes the mouse problem noticeably worse. But reverting this alone doesn't fix the problem.

--- Comment #5 from Austin English austinenglish@gmail.com --- This is your friendly reminder that there has been no bug activity for over a year. Is this still an issue in current (1.7.37 or newer) wine? If so, please attach the terminal output in 1.7.37 (see http://wiki.winehq.org/FAQ#get_log).
