Bug #: 29054 Summary: Text not readable in Sims 3 Product: Wine Version: 1.3.32 Platform: x86 OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: major Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: hendrik.knackstedt@t-online.de Classification: Unclassified
Any text in Sims 3 cannot be read because it looks like it's very very bold like some kind of boxes. Therefore it is not possible to play the game.
Running on latest wine under Ubuntu 11.10 with NVIDIA GeForce GT 540M and Nouveau driver (since proprietary driver does not work, maybe that is the problem?).
Microsoft TrueType Fonts are installed.
I'd be happy to provide any information needed. Please let me know what to do.
Thanks for your time!
Hendrik
