Hi everyone,

Sorry in advance not to know where to post, but I'm new to wine.

I would play guild wars and unfortunately, as you guess, it doesn't work.

First of all, I'm under debian stable and i'm using the debian package wine_0.9.10~winehq1-2_i386.deb. My kernel is 2.6.8 and my graphic card is an ati radeon 9000pro (I know ...ouch...)

So i first try with the dri driver and , although my 3D was ok(openGL1.2 it seems), it was too slow to be playable and my mouse didn't appear.

So i use now the official ati last driver(openGL 1.3 it seems). Now, most of the images doesn't appear. If you know guild wars, in the login screen, i have only rocks, the background image behind rocks and the "window" for login in front of rocks don't appear.

I can send you the lasts many "fixmes" that appears but for some seconds, i have approximatively 1Mo file. However, i have no "err". The lasts line are :

There are also in the upper-middle of the log file many :
fixme:d3d:IWineD3DDeviceImpl_EvictManagedResources (0x4d290020) : stub

Hope this can help a bit....
My command line to launch the games is :
wine "E:/toph/games/GUILD WARS/Gw.exe" 2>gw.wine
I use win98 version per default because sometimes with win2k i have some ntdll errors when connecting to internet(areanet). I don't use anything else. I try display by hardware or emulation, with simple or double buffer, in a window or in directly, with pixel shader or not, but nothing works. Per default, my screen is 1024*768*24bits

Note that tuxracer (or ppracer) works so i don't think it comes from the driver, but i can make mistakes...

Instead of changing my graphic card for an nvidia one, is there a solution to play guild wars ? I know cvscedega but i want to use wine (because it's fully free). I'm not a developer but i want to contribute to the project as i can. And trying to found accurately problems, i think, is the little thing i can do for wine project.

Thanks in advance for your help :-)
