Both wined3d/directx.c and d3d8/directx.c have an IWineD3DImpl_CreateDevice that includes the following call:
glLightModeli(GL_LIGHT_MODEL_COLOR_CONTROL,GL_SEPARATE_SPECULAR_COLOR);
In effect this prevents WINE from using the Voodoo3 for 3D rendering. Not only does this make D3D games intolerably slow (forget measuring FPS - start measuring FPM or worse), the result for many operations is just plain wrong.
Commenting out the offending line makes it work much better (at least until it hits one of the other problems), but with a list of software fallbacks this large, and given that the Voodoo3 is over 5 years old now, there must be some question as to whether this is worth fixing. Is the response to people with this problem "just go pick up an old GeForce card for $30"?
Hi,
Commenting this line is not a solution. D3D8 default behavior have this mode enabled. what we can do is to disable it on older hardware (when we be able to have a proper hardware detection)
