Summary: Baldur's Gate 1: Transparency rendering broken
           Product: Wine

          Platform: x86-64
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED

screenshot showing the transparent cursor problem

Things with transparency, like the mouse cursor in the menu, or the characters
over the landscape, are rendered badly:
* Mouse cursor: It is always surrounded by a black box, which is not redrawn
after moving the cursor away.
* Characters: Their background is replaced what seems to be parts of other
images/animations.

Additionally the game is very sluggish and slow, but that could be result of
the next thing:

This is accompanied by masses of this debug output on the console:
---

format WINED3DFMT_B5G6R5_UNORM.

Have you tried it with the proprietary nvidia drivers yet?

GeForce 7900 GS (NV49)
I didn't try the nvidia drivers because they're currently incompatible with the
kernel I am running.

Using Nvidia binary blob v260.19.12 the game just crashes right after startup
of BGMain.exe:
fixme:ntoskrnl:KeInitializeTimerEx stub: 0x110fe0 0

This is the backtrace, apparently a driver issue:

It shows the problems described above, but in addition crashes quickly after
the actual game starts, which keeps running with a black screen, but music /
sound continuing:

The "Killed" is by me killing the black window that obstructs the screen.
This crash does *not* happen with the full version of BG1:TOSC v5512 that I
have installed.
This was with nouveau. Using nvidia drivers (260.something, s.a.) the demo
crashes right on startup as described earlier.

I just experienced exactly same problem with Baldur's Gate 1 (v1.1.4315), but
running Fedora 14 (2.6.35.6-48.fc14.i686.PAE), Wine (1.3.9-1.fc14) on my laptop
Lenovo 3000 N100 (with integrated Intel graphic GMA950 (=GM945)).

--- Comment #10 from Solitary  2010-12-30 17:18:11 CST ---
I just discovered interesting thing during my tryings with workarounds.

I started Wine in windowed mode (it's essential) and started playing BG1 in
this mode (it's still badly rendered, of course). But when I pressed ALT+F4 I
got dialog window with question if I want to close the game or not. When I
pressed 'No' it didn't return into previous state, but it ended up in total
black screen instead, with game still running (sound is playing). On the other
hand, if I pressed 'Yes', game became fully playable (rendering is correct and
game is fluent again - both ingame and menu). Too bad it's like that only for
~2seconds, due to 'Yes' on ALT+F4 question. (there is no ~2seconds delay in
Wine fullscreen mode, so as I said, windowed mode is essential)

Therefore I think it's just some glitch more then HW or drivers problem,
otherwise it wouldn't be able to render the game correctly at all.

Wine started throwing different output during that playable moment (only when
mouse was moving), instead of "WINED3DFMT_B5G6R5_UNORM." (which is thrown all
the time)

I hope this can help to come up with some fix or workaround.

Ok, I just figured out a small workaround... playing in windowed mode (and I
mean Baldur's Gate, not Wine). Pressing ALT+ENTER makes Baldur's Gate switch
into windowed mode and rendering is suddenly correct and game playable (no
slugging).

Hope it helps and Happy New Year!

Ok, third time's the charm :) Simple setting DirectDrawRenderer="gdi" (in
registers) makes the game works for me, fullscreen, properly rendered and
fluent.

--- Comment #13 from Dennis Schridde  2010-12-31 04:07:19 CST ---
I cannot test this at the moment, because my Wine cannot start BGMain2.exe from
Baldur.exe:
---
err:virtual:map_file_into_view failed to set 00000007 protection on file map,
noexec filesystem?
err:virtual:NtMapViewOfSection map_file_into_view 0x50000000 a0000 000000000

err:module:LdrInitializeThunk Main exe initialization for L"C:\Program
Files\Black Isle\Baldur's Gate\BGMain2.exe" failed, status c0000142
---

However, the following should help to make the DirectDrawRenderer workaround
apply to Baldur's Gate only:

Running BGMain2.exe results in the same error. /home (where ~/.wine/drive_c
lies) is not mounted noexec, though.

The command given before was wrong, it had a whitespace typo.

I confirm that this workaround works around the problem on my system, too.

It's been a year: is this problem still present? It seems very likely this is
the same issue as bug #22493 (for Baldurs Gate 2).

I haven't tried this in a long time and am unlikely to do so again in the near
future. Feel free to mark CLOSED/NEEDINFO or whatever - I'll reopen when I try
the game again.

Abandoned. Feel free to reopen if you retest and it's still broken in current
wine.
