Summary: Bridge It fails to detect Nvidia hardware Product: Wine Version: 1.1.8 Platform: PC-x86-64 URL: http://www.chroniclogic.com/bridgeit_download.htm OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: directx-d3d AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: liquitsnake@gmx.net
Bridge It is an old game (~2004) developed in conjunction with Nvidia. Therefore, it requires Nvidia hardware to play.
I'm using an Nvidia 8600GT, but the game fails to detect it. Upon launch, I am greeted by a message box "Incompatibly hardware detected" since it expects Nvidia hardware. I am unsure if this is because the game can't possibly know about an 8th-generation Geforce, or because of Wine. It was designed with the Gf4, 5 and 6 in mind.
I get these:
fixme:wgl:X11DRV_wglGetPixelFormatAttribivARB unsupported 2004 WGL Attribute
upon launchung the game, ranging from 2004 to 2009. The screen goes blank for a short while before the Dialog box appears.

--- Comment #1 from Roderick Colenbrander thunderbird2k@gmx.net 2008-11-18 16:17:40 --- It sounds like the game uses OpenGL. Figure out if the game still works on Windows or not. If it doesn't function on Windows anymore than the bug is not a Wine one.

--- Comment #2 from haarp liquitsnake@gmx.net 2008-12-16 16:22:13 --- Tried the game on Wine with a Geforce 4. I can still see the same bug. I know that the game works with a Geforce 4 on Windows, so this is a Wine bug.

--- Comment #3 from haarp liquitsnake@gmx.net 2008-12-21 13:00:38 --- Verified on my own hardware: Bridge It runs on Windows with a GF8. Wine fails.

--- Comment #4 from knan-wine@anduin.net 2009-01-03 10:45:39 --- Try the patch in bug 15839 , and set a reasonable nvidia driver name and card name. Might help.
It has unlocked higher detail graphics settings in at least two games for me.

--- Comment #5 from haarp liquitsnake@gmx.net 2009-01-03 12:58:22 --- Thanks for the link. Sadly, this didn't fix the bug. I'm guessing Bridge It's detection mechanism is a bit more sophisticated, as they probably anticipated people on ATI hardware were going to try to circumvent it. No idea how to check what the game checks for tho...

--- Comment #7 from Cale Gibbard cgibbard@gmail.com 2011-02-18 11:19:43 CST --- I'm using wine-1.3.13 with an NVidia 9800 GT card, and I'm seeing the same problem as this, a large number of repetitions of:
fixme:wgl:X11DRV_wglGetPixelFormatAttribivARB unsupported 2004 WGL Attribute fixme:wgl:X11DRV_wglGetPixelFormatAttribivARB unsupported 2005 WGL Attribute fixme:wgl:X11DRV_wglGetPixelFormatAttribivARB unsupported 2006 WGL Attribute fixme:wgl:X11DRV_wglGetPixelFormatAttribivARB unsupported 2008 WGL Attribute fixme:wgl:X11DRV_wglGetPixelFormatAttribivARB unsupported 2009 WGL Attribute
followed by a nice window reporting that my graphics card is unsupported by the game (which seems a bit unlikely, though I don't have Windows on this machine to test it with this very card.)

--- Comment #8 from Louis Lenders xerox_xerox2000@yahoo.co.uk 2011-11-03 15:02:38 CDT --- This game starts fine for me using current git, my guess is this bug is really fixed.
Could someone (with nvidia card) test as well if it works , then we can close this bug.
My card: [GeForce 9500 GT]

I'm still getting 'Incompatible hardware detected!' message when trying to run Bridge It demo. Tested with Wine 1.3.32 and wine-1.3.32-369-gd351e02.
The same fixmes are present for me as reported in comment #7.

harp, GyB, can you please retry with the latest wine version?

The fact is that the currently available demo version is an updated one, and it is indeed running fine in Wine (wine-1.5.30-88-g7559526). The original version still fails to start under Wine with an "incompatible hardware detected" message, and this version is still available at: http://www.geforce.com/games-applications/pc-games/bridge-it/downloads
It could worth the effort to see how these 2 different versions behave under native Windows (I don't have Windows installed, so can't test any of them).

I tested on Win7 and it doesn't happen there.
