           Summary: Highway Pursuit fails at start due to resolution
                    change

            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2

      Distribution: Mint

At the start of Highway Pursuit it defaults to a resolution of 800x600.
However, when it tries to change to this from 1920x1080 on my system - I have
an Nvidia GTX card - it simply brings up a frozen desktop screen instead of the
titles. Sound effects play as normal.

No obvious Wine errors displayed.

This game runs perfectly on Crossover 15.1.0.

Fresh wineprefix. It does default to 800x600, I changed 1920x1080 and left
everything else alone and played until I died 3 times.

Is this fixed already? I got also mint. I have kaby lake's gpu in use
currently.

wine 2.8.

No, it still does the same thing here with 2.8. I guess it must be unique to
Nvidia cards. Can anyone else confirm?

Could be driver bug too. My mesa driver exposes mesa 4.5.

Display mode changes are always a bit problematic with the proprietary NVIDIA
driver, so if that's what you're using a driver issue can certainly not be
ruled out. If the Free Software drivers work well enough for you, those would
certainly be preferred.

Still, you mention it works fine with CrossOver 15.1.0. Does it also work with
e.g. wine-1.8? In that case, you best way forward may be doing a git bisect
between the last known working Wine release and the first Wine release known to
be broken.

Just tried this and a similarly affected title with Wine 4.7, and it seems to
be working now. Changes correctly between 800x600 and 1920x1080.
