YES! Battlezone II CAN work with winex!

[lagitus]

So far Battlezone II didn't work with winex. Everything seemed to look white and untextured. If you moved close to a building for example you could see the texture faintly so I assumed the problem was fog.
This is how I got it to work with the latest winex 3.2.1:


- I installed the game, patched it to the latest version 1.2beta and installed a no-cd crack because CD detection didn't work. The game ran with the dense fog problem described above.


- I downloaded the latest source code from CVS and found that fog was enabled in winex/dlls/d3dgl/state.c


- To disable fog do this:
Find the function D3D_GL_fog_enable and add the line:

glDisable(GL_FOG);

to the end so the function ends like this:
.......
else if (priv->isFogEnabled) {
glDisable(GL_FOG);
priv->isFogEnabled = FALSE;
}
glDisable(GL_FOG); //<--ADDED THIS LINE
}


Then find the function GL_setup_linear_fog and add the lines:

glDisable(GL_FOG);
priv->isFogEnabled = FALSE;

so the end looks like this:
.......
}
else if (!priv->isFogEnabled) {
/* re-enable fog if we need to */
D3D_GL_fog_enable(priv, 0);
}
glDisable(GL_FOG); //<--ADDED THIS LINE
priv->isFogEnabled = FALSE; //<--AND THIS
}


-Then compile the source code by doing
./configure
make depend
make


-Wait until libd3dgl.so appeas in the d3dgl directory and copy it over the same file in your winex installation (mine was /usr/lib/transgaming_winex3/winex/lib).
You might want to make a backup first.

Now fog should be disabled and BZ2 should be playable with some minor graphical bugs and sound problems.
