wine direct3d ?

does anyone know how if its a bug of my system or wine? i installed wine newest version (and also older versions) installed directx like 100 tutorials told me, but in games i only have directdraw or opengl (no direct3d), and the input is lagging like hell, i move the mouse or press a key, nothing happens (4-5 seconds) then the player moves...for deus ex i found on winehq a dll file to copy to system folder of the game then i had direct3d in settings and game was running. but other games still lag.

Re: wine direct3d ?

Keep in mind the winehq tutorial(s) is (are usually) really out of date.

With wine each program has different capabilities/performance issues. You need to be more specific when asking for help as they're all more-or-less a case-by-case process.

Edit: I've had Deus Ex running flawlessly about half a year ago. I haven't tried with the recent wine releases.
Edit2: Later, if I get a chance, I'll try get GoG's Dues Ex version working with the dx10 renderer and see how it goes.

installed directx like 100 tutorials told me

I suggest you try starting afresh - rename your ~/.wine-whatever dir and reinstall a game into a fresh instance of wine, and *DON'T* pollute it with DLLs from elsewhere.

Other than that - be more specific.

Re: wine direct3d ?

already tried to make a fresh .wine, did not change anything, my problem is that i dont have direct3d as renderer (tried avp1 and deus ex) and when i choose software renderer graphic sucks. when i choose opengl (or directdraw in avp1) the graphics look nice but a input lag like hell appears. i did not mod my .wine with dlls, only the deus-ex installation with a modified dll (like in winehq description) and then it worked, but now avp1 again has the same problem

If you use 64 bit make sure you have the 32 libraries for your graphics card. eg. for nvidia install lib32-nvidia-utils.

Re: wine direct3d ?

Are you talking about this AVP?

Once you can establish that and your architecture (64/32bit) we might be able to help.
