Is it only the memory part not recognized?

Have you read: 'http://wiki.winehq.org/UsefulRegistryKeys' ?
Try setting HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Wine\Direct3D 'VideoMemorySize' -> 512
in regedit.
> From page:

"...By default Wine estimates these values based on OpenGL info but this
doesn't work well in all cases."
(Not sure how good Nvidia's OpenGL implementation is)

My card is frequently shown as 'Mobility Radeon HD2600' onboard graphics, when
it is discrete 'ATI HD2600 XT' card.

Hi, my regedit do not show this direct3d folder, i had to create it. I managed
to do what you advised and that worked, thanks!

And yes, it seems which the memory was the only problematic value.

This has not been updated for over 900 days.

Is this still an issue in 1.5.31 or higher or is this abandoned ?

It appears that a common workaround has negated the urgency of this bug.

Surely this bug is fixed. The last problem is the well known problem of new
driver with this game.

I think that bug can be closed as FIXED.

see comment 1 it's not fixed.

An in another bug someone said that the amount of ram should be the lowest that
cards have. This is those bugs that are basically wontfix. Since the wine
recognize code isnt so accurate.
