[Bug 10021] New: Unreal Tournament 2007 Beta Demo doesn' t get past splash screen

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10021

Summary: Unreal Tournament 2007 Beta Demo doesn't get past splash
                    screen
           Product: Wine
           Version: 0.9.47.
          Platform: PC

        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED

          Priority: P2

Console output with described fixes

There a couple of things to do to get this demo installed and running but once
it does attempt to load, it fails.

To install:

Install mono 1.2 with:

winetricks mono12

It will refuse to run at first due to modified executable code, but this has
been fixed by the developers and the fixed exe is here:

http://www.epicgames.com/download/UT3Demo-XP64-2K3.zip

Named XP64-2K3 because it wouldn't work with those (or Wine), not because it is
a 64-bit executable.

It also needs various native DLLs to run, and UseGLSL set to enabled to work.

Once it attempts to run, it displays the splash screen, then fails with the
attached console output.

Guessing wine-directx-d3d as the component, but not sure.

I fear that the game really needs {9A5EA990-3034-4D6F-9128-01F3C61022BC} also
known as 'GameExplorer'. In general a missing object doesn't have to be fatal
but it might be in this case.

err:ole:CoGetClassObject class {9a5ea990-3034-4d6f-9128-01f3c61022bc} not
registered
err:ole:CoGetClassObject no class object {9a5ea990-3034-4d6f-9128-01f3c61022bc}
could be created for context 0x1

On the other hand the debug crash has lines like:
fixme:dbghelp_dwarf:dwarf2_parse_variable Unsupported form for const value
WCCOM (7)
fixme:dbghelp_dwarf:dwarf2_parse_variable Unsupported form for const value
srgb_cmp (a)
fixme:dbghelp_dwarf:dwarf2_parse_variable Unsupported form for const value
srgb_mul_low (a)
fixme:dbghelp_dwarf:dwarf2_parse_variable Unsupported form for const value
srgb_pow (a)

Which seem to indicate that the game tries to launch anyway (it looks like
shader code).

I dunno if this is useful info but a little google showed that wine also spits
out these fixme's while running Football Manager 2008. Coincidently i
downloaded and ran that app a week ago, and  it seemed to run just fine. So
maybe the problem is somewhere else.

The game is starting for me now. It is missing the texture format R32F. I
activated it by force but when starting the game itself it won't show anything.
There are huge shader issues which prevent it from showing stuff.

Upto now it looks like you need a Geforce8 (or compatible card) to run UT3 on
Wine. The problem is that on older cards the game seems to push the card to its
shader limits. (It tries to use all the available 'registers' / 'constants')
Wine needs a few of those to handle some stuff like fog, srgb and other things.
For this reason there aren't enough uniforms left for the game. The latest
cards have enough shader capabilities.

It is possible to get this running almost properly, the only major issues are
not being able to see your own gun, and the other players not rendering quite
right.

This patch:

http://www.winehq.org/pipermail/wine-patches/2007-October/045087.html

Let's the game run, and I assume is similar or the same as whatever Roderick
did.

This patch stop the mouse cursor leaving the edge of the screen:

The framerate is only acceptable with OffscreenRenderingMode set to fbo, but
even then is very low.

The R32F fix is in git, so this bug has been fixed.

Hi Roderick

The patch now in Git isn't the same as the one originally submitted for this,
and still doesn't work.

The same patch as I mentioned earlier in this bug applied on the latest Git
does still work though.

I think this needs reopening.

Reopening, this bug needs this patch to work:

http://www.winehq.org/pipermail/wine-patches/2007-October/045087.html

I know that patch was rejected for performance reasons, but this bug is still
valid without it.

Correct. When testing I somehow had my own hack around :(

Tested again on an 8800GTX - things are much the same with the R32F hack. 
Things look fine but the framerate is very low (2 - 3 frames per second).
