Bug #: 29700 Summary: C&C TiberianSun and RedAlert 2 game graphics rendering freezes when NOT moving the mouse. Product: Wine Version: 1.3.37 Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: pclaves@web.de Classification: Unclassified
When starting a game in C&C Tiberian Sun or RedAlert 2 (same Game Engine) the screen (or Window) is not refreshed unless the mouse is moved around. The Game is progressing (albeit slow), if the mouse is moved the screen is refreshed and the player units jump the the new positions.
Tested with Wine 1.3.37
This seems to be related to http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14438 but with the exact opposite effect. I tried the tricks from this report and the AppDb entry but the have no effect. The bug 14438 report metions that the DIB engine should have fixed that bug, but it apparently created a regression worse than the problem.

--- Comment #1 from Austin English austinenglish@gmail.com 2012-01-24 16:07:13 CST --- Can you try an older version of wine to see if it is really a regression? If so, please run a regression test: http://wiki.winehq.org/RegressionTesting

--- Comment #2 from pclaves@web.de 2012-01-24 19:42:29 CST --- Tried 1.3.31 and it shows problem. 1.2 (stable) failed to compile. Will test more tomorrow.

--- Comment #3 from pclaves@web.de 2012-01-26 18:51:00 CST --- So here is what i got from testing so far. It took longer than expected because i decided to test on multiple machines.
Ubuntu 10.04 i386, Intel P4 GeforeFX 5900, Nvidia 173 wine 1.0.1 (ubuntu repos): Perfect wine 1.2.2 (ubuntu repos): Game Crashes ("encountered internal error") wine 1.3.37 (ppa): Perfect
Archlinux amd64, Atom+Nvidia ION, Nvidia 290.10 wine 1.3.37: Perfect
Archlinux amd64, Core2Duo Radeon HD2600, radeon 6.14.3 / lib32-mesa 7.11.2 wine 1.0.1 does not compile wine 1.2.2: Games work, symptomes of Bug 14438 show. wine 1.3.31: Shows bug specified here wine 1.3.37: Shows bug specified here
Archlinux i686, Atom+945GME (!), intel 2.17.0 / mesa 7.11.2 wine 1.3.37: Perfect
So it seems there both a wine version as well as a graphics driver relation as only the radeon machine is affected but this specific bug only shows in new wine versions.
I am kind of unsure how to continue testing given that its not only a wine problem but a combination of factors.

Problem is pretty much as already described. However, I also have an issue with the menu being invisible which may be related or may be a completely separate issue.

Whether you're using a compositor or not could be relevant.

--- Comment #11 from Arthur Borsboom arthurborsboom@gmail.com --- If I understand correct, I have no compositor.
I am running LXQT (= LXDE-Qt) with openbox.

--- Comment #14 from shatila.victor@yandex.by --- Hello there!
I confirm this bug and I have a (temporary?) solution.
Few days ago I have talked to some YR modder, and he explained me how some ddraw.dll replacer works. This replacer is so-called DDWrapper, you can get it from there: www.bitpatch.com This is proxy DLL that forces DDraw emulation and sets some constant FPS value (actually, screen refresh time, but no matter).
You can also get pre-confidured DLL to work in W8/W10, but it works perfectly on my system. Here (if you wish): https://www.dropbox.com/s/qhm86hnhijgwjug/ddwrapper.zip?dl=1
What system? hp Pavilion g6-2126sr AMD A6-4400M APU RadeonHD 7670M+7520G Dual Graphics free video driver Xubuntu 14.04.3 Linux kernel 3.13 Wine 1.6.2
It has been tested with RA2, YR and some its mods. Expecting this DLL fixes the same issue in Tiberian Sun and its mods (Twisted Insurrection, for example).
PS: I don't really know, but you may check if this DLL fixes these two bugs: https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=37991 https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=33211
PPS: Sorry for my bad English.
