[Bug 33552] New: Dragon Age 2 doesn't detect my graphic card VRAM and driver

Bug #: 33552 Summary: Dragon Age 2 doesn't detect my graphic card VRAM and driver Product: Wine Version: 1.5.29 Platform: x86 OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: scrimekiler@yahoo.fr Classification: Unclassified

Created attachment 44410 --> http://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=44410 Screenshot of the detection problem

Using a wine patch (which will be included in 1.5.30) made me able to have my graphic card name detected.

However, Dragon Age 2 doesn't detect my nvidia graphic driver and tells it's too old to make me able to change some graphic options.

Card : Nvidia Gefore GT 630, driver 313.30 Gentoo 32 bits, kernel 3.7.10

Already set, also the vendorID and modelID

Your card is listed here: http://source.winehq.org/git/wine.git/blob/57d7f74d34f2ce0968af2eb14c7e866d6...

--- snip --- 1249 {HW_VENDOR_NVIDIA, CARD_NVIDIA_GEFORCE_GT630, "NVIDIA GeForce GT 630", DRIVER_NVIDIA_GEFORCE6, 1024}, --- snip ---

CARD_NVIDIA_GEFORCE_GT630 -> pci deviceid = 0x0f00

Verify (it should display the same id):

--- snip --- $ lspci -nn | grep VGA | grep NVIDIA | cut -d: -f 4 | cut -d ']' -f 1 --- snip ---

It seems this graphics card series comes with 1 GiB, 2 GiB and 4 GiB DDR3 SDRAM. If you have more than 1 GiB you have to put an override in registry to tell Wine.

For example 2 GiB (to override Wine's default value of 1 GiB for GT630 entry):

--- quote --- [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Wine\Direct3D] "VideoMemorySize"=dword:00000800 --- quote ---

Yes, I have 2GB

For example 2 GiB (to override Wine's default value of 1 GiB for GT630 entry):

--- quote --- [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Wine\Direct3D] "VideoMemorySize"=dword:00000800 --- quote ---

Added VideoMemorySize as "string" with value : "2000"

Game still detect "VRAM=-2147483648 bytes" and driver : 266.58 while I'm actually now using 331.20 and wine 1.7.4

Anyway it's not a big deal, only the game hardware dectection summary.The game works very fast for me without any graphic issue.

This bug could even be affected to "trivial" instead of "minor"

On the other side, bugs 33545 and 33553 are affecting me and are really more annoying.

--- quote --- Added VideoMemorySize as "string" with value : "2000" --- quote ---

yes, vram is of 'string' type not dword, sorry.

Verify with the following command in your WINEPREFIX if the vram override is active:

--- snip --- $ WINEDEBUG=+d3d wine dxdiag 2>&1 | grep emulated_textureram trace:d3d:wined3d_dll_init Use 2000MB = 2097152000 byte for emulated_textureram --- snip ---

You can do the same with the Dragon Age 2 diagnostics tool by replacing 'dxdiag' with the name of DA2 system info executable.

Do you mean DA2 is using dxdiag to give hardware/drivers info ? Or do you mean I should try to do it to see if it gives the same result ?

Wine dxdiag results in a lot of error messages

--- Comment #9 from Anastasius Focht focht@gmx.net 2013-12-05 19:14:13 CST --- Hello Someone,

after investigating a bit more I think your 2 GB setting triggers either a bug in the diagnostics tool or Wine. There seems to be some LONG type overflow/mishandling.

The maximum value without overflow: 1953 MB -> "1.99 GB"

--- snip --- $ WINEDEBUG=+d3d wine DragonAge2Config.exe 2>&1 | grep emulated_textureram trace:d3d:wined3d_dll_init Use = 2047868928 byte for emulated_textureram --- snip ---

With 1954 MB it overflows, shown as "-2147483648 bytes"

--- snip --- $ WINEDEBUG=+d3d wine DragonAge2Config.exe 2>&1 | grep emulated_textureram trace:d3d:wined3d_dll_init Use 1954MB = 2048917504 byte for emulated_textureram --- snip ---

"vram.desc": "2048.9 MB" (dxdiagn "szDisplayMemoryEnglish" 2048917504/1000000.0f)

Do you have a Windows machine with a graphics card >= 2 GB VRAM where you can run the tool? I think the tool is stand-alone and you can copy it over without the need to install the game. It would save some time if you are able to verify that Windows shows the correct value or same overflow.

Well, the TRACE uses %d, which is wrong of course, although I'm not sure why that would overflow at 1954 instead of 2048. (Unless that's from the diagnostics tool, in which case 1954 MiB is about 2048 MB.)

Most of the actual APIs like IDirectDraw7::GetAvailableVidMem() and IDirect3DDevice9::GetAvailableTextureMem() return a number of bytes in a DWORD or UINT, which should work up to about 4 GiB.

it seems the tool uses more than one method to query the card properties (device name, -id, description, manufacturer, refresh rate, resolution, vram) ... from a quick glance:

- WMI - DXGI - dxdiag - DirectDraw/D3D9

For example WMI:

-> 2048917504

The WMI value seems to be ignored/skipped for some reason.

In "dxdiag" case it queries "szDisplayMemoryEnglish" property as "2048.9 MB" and converts this to float and later back to int?

At one point it calls StrFormatByteSizeW() API (non-overflow case with 1953 MiB)

Not sure where this integer overflow comes from. Maybe some internal conversion went wrong.

Another thing I noticed the tool tries to match (dx) device id from multiple query sources (dxgi, wmi, ...) and this somehow doesn't work out. Maybe there is an inconsistency (incomplete/fake data) somewhere so the app skips some code paths, discarding some values it earlier retrieved.

In "dxdiag" case it queries "szDisplayMemoryEnglish" property as "2048.9 MB" and converts this to float and later back to int?

...

Not sure where this integer overflow comes from. Maybe some internal conversion went wrong.

My guess would be that it takes the "2048.9 MB" from dxdiag, interprets that as "2048.9 MiB", converts it back to bytes (by multiplying with 1024 * 1024, resulting in a value >= 0x80000000), and displays it as a signed integer. Perhaps the value dxdiag returns should be in MiB, I'm not that familiar with dxdiag, but the main issue seems to be that the tool display the value as a signed integer for whatever reason.

Another thing I noticed the tool tries to match (dx) device id from multiple query sources (dxgi, wmi, ...) and this somehow doesn't work out. Maybe there is an inconsistency (incomplete/fake data) somewhere so the app skips some code paths, discarding some values it earlier retrieved.

IIRC WMI actually uses DXGI. I do know that the device names from winex11/user32 and wined3d don't quite match up, but anything that originally comes from wined3d should be consistent with each other.

Hi,

I don't think that it's a problem on Wine because i have the same problem on real Windows 8.1 (see screenshot)

I tried to change the compatibility mode for "MassEffect2Config.exe" from WinXP to Win7. Result : I still have the same wrong graphic card VRAM.

Cheers, Max

Fixed with the demo. Masseffect2Config is version 1.03. The bug was also present in real Windows box with older Masseffect2Config. I think this bug can be closed as INVALID or at least NOTOURBUG. I will test later DragonAge2Config soon, but it is the same software customized for DragonAge2, so the result should be the same.
