#! /bin/bash
xinit ~/scripts/frozenthrone -- :1

where did you paste theses scripts? do you have the ~/scripts/dir? could you give us the output of ls -l in ~/scripts
BTW, you don't need nocd patch anymore, you know? |

does it work if you launch frozenthrone via xinit directly cia the CLI:
run: | Code: | | xinit ~/scripts/frozenthrone -- :1 |
? |

So I guess its back to 0.9.5 again where Warcraft works great for me without any dlloverrides or even a no-cd patch. |
I get this too (on a fresh WarIII install with 1.20c patch and nocd).
Other people are seeing it as well: http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4604

without the nocd patch, (that you dont need..)
| Code: | cat scripts/frozenthrone
#! /bin/bash
cd ~/wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/Warcraft\ III
exec `wine Frozen\ Throne.exe -opengl`
exit 0
|
and
| Code: | cat scripts/xfrozenthrone
#! /bin/bash
xinit ~/scripts/frozenthrone -- :1

I have been unable to find a no cd exe after extensive searching (gamecopyworld only seems to have a mountable image). When I try and run it with the standard exe, it looks almost like it will work (screen goes black and resolution changes), but I just end up seeing my desktop at 800x600 resolution. When I get back to xterm, I see:
"wine ~/.wine/drive_c/Warcraft\ III/Frozen\ Throne.exe -opengl
err:ole:CoCreateInstance apartment not initialised
kevin@localhost ~ $ X Error of failed request: BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes)
Major opcode of failed request: 143 (GLX)
Minor opcode of failed request: 5 (X_GLXMakeCurrent)
Serial number of failed request: 465
Current serial number in output stream: 465"
Any suggestions on what to do or where to find the exe are greatly appreciated! |

You do not need it. All versions of wine released in the last 4 to 6 months do not require a no-cd crack. Getting an error message that asks you for the cd generally caused by a different problem. There is some helpful hints to get around these problems here: http://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?versionId=1177 See the part right after the Upgrade Warning.

I thought I'd chime in quickly to mention that I have TFT running perfectly (except for random missing polygons in-game). Running wine-0.9.8-r1, installed RoC, then installed TFT, applied patch and made a tiny script to run the game (and I think running it under Windows 2000). The only other game that has been as smooth as WC3 was Jedi Knight 2, which might as well have been marketed for Linux (if I recall correctly, I didn't have to do anything to get it to run right off, and it's quicker than windows.)
My only complaint is the occasional lag spike, which is probably thanks to my ATI Radeon Pro 9800. That brings me to a nagging question of mine: considering I play a lot of Windows games on this box, is it worth snagging a different, nVidia based card? Or is WC3 performance just generally poor under wine? I read on slashdot a while ago about a new nvidia AGP card (I don't have PCI express on this mobo) that looked pretty nice. Or would I be better served to wait for a mobo upgrade to get pci-e? I could scrounge up money to grab a new card if I really needed it, which sounds pretty good, because my 9800 is a royal pain to play 3D games in.
Not to hijack the thread or anything - just seemed too small a question to warrant an entire thread.
Thanks

I have a 4 maybe 5 year old nVida Geforce 2 440 card and my Warcraft3 performance (running 1024x768 fullscreen as a win2k box) is just as good as in windows xp if not better and this is with or without the -opengl param. Only thing I can not do is to play the game movies... My system is a dual processor Athlon MP 2200 with 2GB of PC2100 REG ECC DDR.

same here, before having this *** error : (X Error of failed request: BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes)
Major opcode of failed request: 143 (GLX)
Minor opcode of failed request: 5 (X_GLXMakeCurrent )
Warcraft ran really well with the -opengl option and was a bit lagging without it. I also have a nvidia card.. (that's why I felt suprised when drescherjm said he doesn't use this option.. (a few pages before..) |

I have an nvidia 6800 128Mb AGP and I also can run warcraft3 in wine without -opengl option and it goes even better,
letting me choose more screen resolutions.(wine 9.5-9.7, some dll overlays but not any directx dll....)

Could it be that my card does not have all the bells and whistles so warcraft3 detects this and does not use all the new features? Or possibly since I am running on a SMP box the second processor makes up for the difference but then again its only an Athlon MP 2200 and I only have agp 4X because this is a workstation mobo (Tyan Thunder K7 Pro) again over 3 years old.
I do have my hands on a TI 4200 card which I can try and replace it and see if performance changes but this will not be soon because I have 5 hard drives in my system and their a mix of 2 IDE, 1 SATA and 2 U160 SCSI. I also have all 7 slots full of PCIX, PCI and the AGP graphics cards. The PCIX card is a full length 45 drive U80 raid card with 64mb of memory so its huge. With all this going on its hard to get to the mobo to swap out the graphics card.
And then there is time which is in short supply for me since my girlfrend and I are remodeling the house and its almost time to put a ring on her finger... I will stop here before I tell my whole live history...

well I just try again without -opengl and..
The game don't even start  I have a first strange "FATAL ERROR" about "acces violation", I click "OK" then I have the "CDROM not detected " error!
Strange, I put again -opengl , and it's working, no error at all, unless I wana cahnge the resolution (or changing 16 bits to 32bits) the game stops, exit, and I got | Code: | X Error of failed request: BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes)
Major opcode of failed request: 144 (GLX)
Minor opcode of failed request: 5 (X_GLXMakeCurrent)
Serial number of failed request: 454
Current serial number in output stream: 454
|
BTW I can play in 16 bits for now but.. I'd like to have 32 bits as before... but it doesn't look bad, I'm wondering if I really am in 16bits, how can I know, in the game? (wihtout going in the options that said I'm 16bits?) |

Interesting. I can't help wondering if I'd be better served swapping out my Radeon 9800 for my old Geforce 4200 Ti sitting in my test box. Anyone think I'd experience a nice FPS increase? Unless I'm mistaken, the only changes I'd have to make to my Gentoo installation would be some modifictations to the kernel config, Xorg.conf and emerge nvidia-dirvers....

warcraft 3 seems to work fine with wine 9.9, even if I found some warnings in console after exiting.

I got the same error when I upgraded from wine-0.9.5 to 0.9.8. And with the -opengl param I could not get by the opengl badmatch error. I did not have time to figure it out so I reverted back to my binary package of wine 0.9.5 which I still run until I figure out how to fix it...

For cd-detection problems only in installation (Frozen Throne), you should install Warcraft3 in a directory without any spaces. Works for me without spaces, and doesn't work with spaces.
Anyway, I can't run with success my war3 with cedega. I've tried all tips and tricks, but I have two solutions: If I use crack no-cd, I can play solo but not on Battle-net. If I don't use it, CD-Rom is not detected, despite my correct permissions, correct letter on cedega config, etc...
Thanks for help.

| use wine ! read previous pages for cd detection, if needed, but, with wine you don't need nocd crack and so on, and you'll be able to join battle net too:) |

I have been watching the status on the GLX bug that occurs with newer versions of wine and xorg-7 and finally I have found a patch that works for me:
http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4143#c42
To install the patch create an overlay at /usr/local/portage. And add it to your portage overlays in your make.conf.
Then execute the following commands:
| Code: | mkdir -p /usr/local/portage/app-emulation/wine/files
cp /usr/portage/app-emulation/wine/files/*.patch /usr/local/portage/app-emulation/wine/files
cp /usr/portage/app-emulation/wine/wine-0.9.10.ebuild /usr/local/portage/app-emulation/wine/
|
The following is a diff between the ebuild save it as ~/wine-0.9.10-ebuild.patch

If everything worked you should now be able to emerge wine. And if you are upgrading from a version of wine that is less than 0.9.6 you must reinstall Warcraft or you will get an error about not being able to find the cd key.

Wine-0.9.11 fails to run/need fixes:
| Code: |
#wine War3.exe
err:ole:CoCreateInstance apartment not initialised
|
then it will run very slow (audio disabled) , 1 frame every 3 seconds.
| Code: |
#wine War3.exe -opengl
err:ole:CoCreateInstance apartment not initialised
err:wgl:X11DRV_ChoosePixelFormat glXChooseFBConfig returns NULL (glError: 0)
|
then it will ask for directX and not run....
