Summary: Robot Arena main menu is extremely slow Product: Wine Version: 0.9.50. Platform: PC URL: http://www.topdownloads.net/games/view.php?id=4536 OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: minor Priority: P2 Component: wine-directx-d3d AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: echidnaman@gmail.com
The main menu for this game is very, very slow. Sound seems to be okay though. The Direct3D menu/cursor are lagged to hell though. This also makes it very hard to click stuff. Fixme's present:
fixme:win:EnumDisplayDevicesW ((null),0,0x34f5d8,0x00000000), stub! fixme:x11drv:X11DRV_desktop_SetCurrentMode Cannot change screen BPP from 32 to 16 fixme:d3d:IWineD3DClipperImpl_SetClipList (0x215cc0,0x8c32f0,0),stub! fixme:dsound:mmErr Unknown MMSYS error 2 fixme:dinput:SysMouseAImpl_Acquire Clipping cursor to (0,0)-(640,480)
Demo available at url. (Finally, an application with a bug that actually has a *demo*...)

--- Comment #1 from Jonathan echidnaman@gmail.com 2008-03-26 16:46:11 --- I finally had the luck to be able to go in-game. The game itself doesn't suffer these slowdowns, that is until you bring up the pause menu. It's probably safe to say that whatever is being used to draw the menus is what is at fault.

--- Comment #2 from Jonathan echidnaman@gmail.com 2008-03-27 06:26:14 --- I did a +ddraw trace on a hunch. The bad performance is due to the lack of a DIB engine. There's lots of GetDC/ReleaseDC and blitting. Oh well.

I did a +ddraw trace on a hunch. The bad performance is due to the lack of a DIB engine. There's lots of GetDC/ReleaseDC and blitting. Oh well.
"Lots of GetDC/ReleaseDC and blitting" is not an absolute indication of a weak performance due to a lack of DIB engine. DIB engine is not a magic thing.

fixme:x11drv:X11DRV_desktop_SetCurrentMode Cannot change screen BPP from 32 to 16
Have you tried to set bpp to 16 in X as the game needs?

Installer crashes almost immediately in 1.1.10.

--- Comment #8 from Scott Ritchie scott@open-vote.org 2009-07-20 02:25:25 --- The download link in this bug report gave me a program that crashed on run with "Bad EXE file format" from Wine's terminal output. I googled around and found a Robot Arena demo here: http://www.terragame.com/robot-arena.html
The program never opened a Window but didn't crash out right, instead it would print "fixme:msxml:DllCanUnloadNow" to the terminal every 5 seconds or so. I ctrl-c'ed it after about 10 minutes.
There's definitely a bug here, but I can't yet confirm the original bug as I don't have the full game - Jonathan, if you're still around, would you kindly retest on the lates Wine (1.1.26)? Thanks.

--- Comment #9 from Rafal Stanilewicz washuu@eastnews.com.pl 2012-01-11 16:00:20 CST --- Right now (1.3.36) installer says
Bad EXE file format: Z:\home\washuu\1_22.exe
but exactly the same binary runs in Win32.
md5 of the file is 9275898597fae742b0b57991bc727850, downloaded a few times.

This link should work i think.

It goes here:

and clicking the exe gives 404 error.
