Bug #: 33493
           Summary: C&C: Red Alert 2 black screen at the title
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.5.29
          Platform: x86
        OS/Version: Mac OS X
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: critical
          Priority: P2
         Component: directx-d3d
        AssignedTo: [e-mail]
        ReportedBy: [e-mail]
    Classification: Unclassified

Since Wine 1.5.28, C&C Red Alert 2 black screens at the title after the intro
videos thus making it unplayable. This issue is still present in 1.5.29

Compounding this issue (http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=33211), it seems
this game has had a lot of trouble running in Wine.

Not critical.

Please run a regression test:

Since this is on the Mac and 1.5.28 was the first version where the Mac driver
was on by default, I suspect that's the cause.

Please try switching to the X11 driver to see if that fixes the problem.  To
switch, set the following key in the registry:

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Wine\Drivers]
"Graphics"="x11"

Hi Ken,

Doesn't seem to be related to the MacDriver, sadly. I was using X11 and the
issue is still present in 1.6-rc4 too.

In that case, still waiting for a regression test.
