Summary: Distant impostors does not work in Lord of the Rings Online Product: Wine Version: 1.1.25 Platform: PC OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: directx-d3d AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: eric.ladner@gmail.com
The "distant impostors" setting has no effect. The way it implements distant impostors, I believe, is substituting a flat 2d texture for 3d objects that are very far from the camera, giving more detail to the landscape without having to render 20 million polys for the trees.
See http://www.codeweavers.com/compatibility/browse/group/?app_parent=4029;forum... (second post from the top) for screen shots comparing LotRO running on Wine and Windows and the difference "distant impostors" makes.
I've verified that it doesn't work on 1.1.24 and 1.1.25 (although 1.1.25 crashed a lot for me on LotRO for some reason and I had to revert back to 1.1.24).
I'd be happy to provide any extra debugging info if any would be helpful.

--- Comment #2 from Andreas Schneider aksdb@gmx.de 2009-07-16 14:28:44 --- Per request, the forum topic (with the screenshots) has been moved to this new location: http://www.codeweavers.com/compatibility/browse/name/?app_id=2869;forum=1;ms...
I also opened (without knowing about this WineHQ Bug entry) a ticket in the CodeWeavers Support System: http://www.codeweavers.com/support/tickets/browse/?ticket_id=751049
I will also try to play around with the device caps (as suggested by Henri Verbeet) ... although I'm not yet sure what's the best way to do this. I will probably have to read more about that particular Direct3D Interface/Function first.

--- Comment #3 from eric.ladner@gmail.com 2009-07-16 17:34:38 --- Log coming soon. WINEDEBUG was set to "trace", I can run again with different settings if you like. I edited out two "fixme's" from the log that were repeated many many times (details below).
These were repeated 10's of thousands of times.. fixme:xinput:XInputGetState (0 0x26dea5c) fixme:xinput:XInputGetState (3 0x26dea5c) fixme:xinput:XInputGetState (2 0x26dea5c) fixme:xinput:XInputGetState (1 0x26dea5c)
These were repeated hundreds of thousands of times. fixme:d3d:IWineD3DSwapChainImpl_Present Unhandled present rects (0,0)-(1181,846)/(0,0)-(1181,846) fixme:d3d:IWineD3DSwapChainImpl_Present Unhandled present rects (0,0)-(1181,846)/(0,0)-(1181,846) fixme:d3d:IWineD3DSwapChainImpl_Present Unhandled present rects (0,0)-(1181,846)/(0,0)-(1181,846) fixme:d3d:IWineD3DSwapChainImpl_Present Unhandled present rects (0,0)-(1181,846)/(0,0)-(1181,846)

I'm still running 1.1.24 because 1.1.25 crashes frequently. I'll re-install 1.1.25 and catch some additional data, but the behavior on this issue is the same between both of them (wine crashing would obviously be another bug altogetner)

--- Comment #8 from eric.ladner@gmail.com 2011-02-07 10:10:51 CST --- Additional debugging information on things that were tried is available at this link:
http://www.codeweavers.com/support/tickets/browse/?ticket_id=751049
Summary of stuff that was tried:
* hacking state_zfunc to eliminate z-buffer problems. * DumpCaps testing. * Testing on startup complaints about WINED3DFMT_R8G8B8 and re-enabling it to see if that was an issue.
I have some time and interest in this bug if an experienced Wine graphics dev could provide guidance. I'm not a bad coder and have a lot of debug/troubleshooting experience, but I'm not familiar with Wine internals at all.

--- Comment #13 from eric.ladner@gmail.com 2011-08-17 10:53:26 CDT --- Any updates? Anything I can do to help? I'm a fairly experienced troubleshooter (20 years UNIX admin experience and trained programmer) but I'm not familiar with the Wine and DirectX architecture. Love the game and play it on a regular basis, so I'm interested in seeing it in all it's glory under Wine.
