Bug ID: 41923
           Summary: Pool of Radiance: Ruins of Myth Drannor requires
                    DirectDraw Emulation Mode
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.8.5
          Hardware: x86-64
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2

      Distribution: ---

Pool of Radiance: Ruins of Myth Drannor seems to be built/coded against a buggy
or old version of DirectDraw. On Windows XP+ it requires a so called
"DirectDraw Emulation Mode" to function properly. Without it characters will
become transparent when standing still.

There is a guide available which explains on how to enable it using the
Application Compatibility Toolkit from Microsoft:

Then there is a DirectDraw wrapper which enables it, too:

However, I failed to get both to work under Wine.
