I took a break for 20040213, but here's the latest edition of my testing efforts. Same rules still apply in my selection efforts: All games tested are freely available as demos or F/OSS games on the Internet and they don't work right.
Since my last report: - Bugzilla bug #2011 on Austerlitz was closed - 2 patches were generated by Jason Edmeades - 3 Bugs Filed - - #2056 - Dominions II Demo Does Not Do Full Screen Correctly - - #2128 - Remote Assault Demo Fails To Run - - #2129 - Austerlitz Demo Generates Unhandled Exception
Austerlitz Summary ------------------ http://www.breakawaygames.com/downloads/austerlitz_demo.exe
With Jason's patches for bug #2011, Austerlitz runs but has revealed more bugs. There's a screen drawing/refresh error and it's possible to cause an unhandled exception. Full report here: http://www.tashcorp.net/Wine/Austerlitz/austerlitz-20040309.html
Dominions II Summary -------------------- http://www.shrapnelgames.com/downloads/dominions2demo_install.exe
Dominions II still has problems with full-screen mode where the KDE kicker bar is visible over the game and the mouse insistently returns to to the center of the screen when moved. Full report here: http://www.tashcorp.net/Wine/DominionsII/dominionsII-20040309.html
Remote Assault Summary ---------------------- http://www.shrapnelgames.com/downloads/rad50.exe
Remote Assault fails to run. I believe this is a downgrade of it's previous position. I owe a +loaddll,+relay log to the bug report. Full report here: http://www.tashcorp.net/Wine/RemoteAssault/remoteassault-20040309.html
The War Engine Summary ---------------------- http://www.shrapnelgames.com/downloads/TWEDemo.exe
It hangs on execution and I havn't figured out where to start filing bugs. Hopefully I'll figure out something better to do with when the next version of Wine is released.
