[Bug 13202] New: ClientSideWithRender fixes Auran Trainz text, but breaks window elements in Steam

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13202

Summary: ClientSideWithRender fixes Auran Trainz text, but breaks
                    window elements in Steam
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.0-rc1
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown
        AssignedTo: [e-mail]
        ReportedBy: [e-mail]

Setting the registry key 
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Wine\X11 Driver\ClientSideWithRender in Wine's
regedit fixes the infamous disappearing text problem in some games (such as the
Auran Trainz series), but causes some UI elements in Steam to become invisible.

Is this still an issue in current (1.1.8 or newer) wine?

I have set the ClientSideWithRender key in the registry and started Steam.

The broken UI elements are clearly visible throughout the program, mostly on
button edges and colouration.

The following line spams up the console: fixme:xrender:X11DRV_AlphaBlend Unable
to AlphaBlend without Xrender.  Also Steam uses about half the CPU when idle
with ClientSideWithRender set (6-7% compared to 14-16%).

This is with Wine 1.1.31.

Try the current version.  I had invisible text in Full Tilt Poker for many
versions (including 1.1.31) which is now fixed in 1.1.35.  I have the
WineTricks font packages installed, but that didn't help me in the past.  Now
all popup windows, chat text, and menu text appears (and appears correctly).

When running Last.fm adioscrobler
(http://www.last.fm/download?showplatform=Windows) there is no font rendered at
all until I set ClientSideWithRender = N.

But as bad side, ClientSideWithRender = N stop rendering the icon from
iconified aplications (just show a black square) at notification area.

I suspect that there is a particular font rendering problem when running
windows QT4 based applications (like last.fm), but I can't really confirm that.

Before setting ClientSideWithRender I tested removing all fonts from wine fonts
directory, and also tried removing font references from registry, but both
didn't helped.

My Wine version is the wine-1.1.37 from Ubuntu karmic koala repository.

Today I tested the windows version from Psi (http://psi-im.org/). It is a QT
based IM software, but even with ClientSideWithRender = Y the font rendering
seems perfect.

I checked the Last.FM install directory for DLLs other than QT ones, and there
I found a subdirectory called "Microsoft.VC80.CRT", where inside there is two
MS dlls: msvcp80.dll and msvcr80.dll.

If I rename Microsoft.VC80.CRT to Microsoft.VC80.CRT.bak, LastFM.exe will not
startup anymore.

If that matters... on a default config test, there is one backtrace line that
says:

fixme:font:ExtTextOutW flags ETO_NUMERICSLOCAL | ETO_NUMERICSLATIN | ETO_PDY
unimplemented

Same thing happens on my system x86 running ubuntu 10.04.  Could be 2 hours
playing without or 2 minutes before it crashes and boots me.  Says that it's in
zombie state and it doesn't matter if you run it nice or not.  Very
frustrating.

This bug has not been updated for two years and OP by four. Is this still an
issue i current (1.5.4) or newer wine ? You may also close this as abandoned if
you feel that that this is issue is no longer relevant to you.

No reply in 2 years, marking abandoned. If still an issue in current (1.7.19 or
newer) wine, and you can provide the needed information, feel free to reopen.
