Hi, I'm seeking advice as I really don't understand anything about wine display drawing (gdi, x11, ...).
Every game created with an old win3.11 tool called Klik & Play do not work in wine because a driver called DIB is passed as parameter to CreateDC. Till today I've only seen a driver called DISPLAY being used by all sorts of applications. Looking at the DRIVER_GetDriverName [1] function I can see a list where 3 different drivers are supported.
In an attempt to run an old game called Mortuum [2] I can see that it always fail due to this missing DIB driver: err:dc:CreateDCW no driver found for L"DIB"
My lack of knowledge made me do a dirty hack in the CreateDCW function forcing the driver DISPLAY to be used instead of DIB and when I started the game it draw it's first screen and then crashed.
What should be done to support the DIB driver name now that DIB is implemented in wine?
