I should have specified, but yes, I do have both vertex and pixel shaders enabled in winecfg. |

Hmm, apparently I should have waited to get home and try a few more things. I must have had something funky going on in my Config.wtf file; I deleted the old one, and full screen glow is back and awesome, now. Thanks for listening! |

Has someone here full screen antialiasing anabled and working?
I have nvidia drivers installed and nvidia-settings on override with antialiasing enabled but it is simply ignored in Wow.
Since my new graphics card should be able to do this I wonder if it is possible to get this to work. I think Iread somewhere that it should work with wine and Wow.
Also I'm sometimes experiencing low fps rates (under 10 fps) in crowded areas. Sometimes it becomes better after reboot.
My wine version is 0.9.47 (update to newest version is running atm, but since the changelogs mention no related fixes/updates I don't think it will do much good).
My graphics card is a nvidia 8800gts pcie with 512mb (newly installed), but I had the same problems with my old agp 8600gts (just didn't bother to work on the problems since I thought they would be gone with the upgrade to the new card).
I'm running a amd64 dual-core system.
I already deleted my Config.wtf but the problems remain the same.
Any ideas? |

Code: |
export __GL_FSAA_MODE=1
export __GL_LOG_MAX_ANISO=4
nice --adjustment=2 wine WoW.exe -opengl
|
That's what I use to run wow, and it works fine with AA. You are running it on opengl mode right? |

Yes, I'm running it in opengl mode.
Thanks
Edit:
It works with the following method I found somewhere on the net:
startupscript:
Code: | cd <wowdirectory>
nvidia-settings --assign FSAAAppControlled=0
nvidia-settings --assign FSAA=5
wine wow.exe -opengl && nvidia-settings -l &

Well, as of 2.3.2 suddenly PCs and NPCs don't load right for me any more (tested under both 0.9.49 and 0.9.52) This can't be an interface issue, I've deleted the whole WDB, WTF, and Interface directories in my efforts to make this work.
The ground, and the buildings are there. Character shadows are also, and so are most Hunter/Warlock pets. But the characters themselves, and most NPCs are not. However, if I force a UI event, like talking to a merchant (if one happens to load) will suddenly load the entire room, NPCs and PCs and everything. I'm almost able to believe that its a networking issue, and the server messages aren't getting through except under special circumstances.
If anyone else has this problem... it has nothing to do with WINE, just WoW. Use "-nosound" and its fixed. |

Exact same thing here. Really annoying in AB too when I can't see anyone for 5 minutes.
edit: Running with -nosound once seems to have fixed it permanently. |

This is a known bug on the official blizzard forums and seems to be on windows too. A fix is promised for one of the next patches.
Strangely for me the bug only apprears when I'm starting TS first (which is the only way I can get TS to have any sound, no sound on WoW then).
It was extremely annoying the first times until I figured that out because I was raiding with TS and couldn't see the others. |

I have managed to fix the problem by launching the game via :
dbus-launch wine <path to wow.exe> -opengl |

I haven't tried running WoW under Linux for almost a year now but I wanted to get back into it. I updated Wine to v0.9.55 (although `wine --version` says "Wine 20050211") and the completion message states that ~/.wine/config is deprecated and I should now use `winecfg` or edit the registry. So I run `winecfg` and it tells me that it's not complete and if I want to make changes I should use ~/.wine/config
So I should be using the config file like I used to? I tried firing up WoW without any changes and I get some advapi32.dll error that I never saw before. _________________ RYZEN 5 3600 Matisse (Zen 2) 6-Core 3.6 GHz Socket AM4 65W

I think you have a mixed up installation... better unmerge wine and delete your .wine folder. Or at least do a locate wine and see what you have installed. And yes winecfg is the one to use now.

So definitively you have an old version still around. _________________ "May God stands between you and harm in all the empty places where you must walk" - Babylon 5 |

Hi,
My friends are convinced that once I pick up WoW, I will be hooked. So just for kicks, I've decided to humour them and install it on my box. First things first: I'm running a Toshiba Qosmio LAPTOP with, according to conky, 882 MB of RAM, and a dedicated nVidia 7600 Go graphics card (128 MB onboard memory I believe).
Using the gentoo wiki howto for WoW, I installed wine, but after doing the suggested winecfg changes and clicking apply, then doing D:installe.exe, I get a dialog box (from Blizzard) saying "No installation data could be found." So I'm not sure what's going on, although here is some console output from winecfg when I try to change stuff:
Wine 0.9.49
Application Settings:
Windows Version - Windows XP
Libraries - Nothing modified, everything is blank.
Graphics:
Allow the window manager to control the window
Direct 3D Vertex Shader Support: Hardware
Allow Pixel Shader
Screen Res 96 dpi (should I make this higher?)
Desktop integration : nothing modified
Audio:
Alsa Driver
Hardware Acceleration : Full
Default Sample Rate: 44100 Bits per sample 16 (should either of these change?)
Drives: D: /mnt/cdrom/

As you can see, a lot of STATUS_UNSUCCESSFUL when I attempt to launch the installer. Any ideas? What else should I provide you with to help solve this issue? _________________ I am not a Linux Guru, but a n00b with a lot of questions. |

Try Windows NT or Windows 98. I use NT to install patches and 98 to play WoW. |

I get the same problem installing as GivePeaceAChance. I am installing from the BattleChest DVD (comes with WoW and Burning Crusade).
I initially had trouble because my automount viewed the DVD as HFS and only allowed me to see the mac portion of data which had no installer.exe. I had to mount it with: `mount -t iso9660 /dev/dvd /mnt/dvd` and then I was able to see all the files.
So now when I do `wine Installer.exe` it runs for a long time, the dvd drive spinning the whole time, then it pops up a window saying "No installer data could be found. If this problem persists, please contact Blizzard Technical Support.". I can see "Installer Tome.mpq" in the same directory as the Installer.exe so I'm not sure exactly what the problem is here.
Plz2halp, I desperately do not want to install Windows just to play this game. |

Have you tried copying all disks to a single directory? |

It's a DVD, all the files are already in a single directory. |

I tried to use the download method (using the blizzard client downloader) but a few days later I still wasn't even at %20 so blah at that. I ended up installing VirtualBox and making a Windows VM, installing into that, then copying out the WoW install data. Hurray. |

Mount your drive with
mount -t iso9660 -o rw,unhide /dev/WHATWEVER
This works for me. _________________ Ich habe Augen zum wegsehen, Ohren zum Weg hören und einen Mund zum schweigen. |
