Hi,
With Dan reporting on the success of Visual C++ 2005, I thought I
would post my findings of various casual (and other) games.
In general, my observations are that:

Don't forget the .com files those wonderful real-mode 64K wonders...
I noticed that the distros do not map .com files to wine.
They probably should.

I know Daggerfall doesn't work all that great in DOSBox (it's a heavy effort
in tweaking to get the videos to play at the right speed, and that usually
causes the game to play like crap, and vice-versa..)

We would like to get to the point where users
don't have to wonder which tool to use to run .exe's with.
i.e. it would be nice if we could just map .exe's to

Hi,
Perhaps support for more VGA features can increase compatibility of DOS
software on 32-bit hardware. 64-bit users won't be able to run most dos
programs as there is no vm86 support when using a 64-bit kernel. In the end we
need x86 emulation..

trace:opengl:wglMakeCurrent ((nil),(nil))

As the glXSwapBuffers call may return before the buffer swap is actually
done in hardware, it may happen that the driver

There is the examine-relay perl script in the tools directory, but it's only for
relay traces.

bzip2 destroys Wine traces. 16mb is nothing compared to the multi-gig logs
we sometimes deal with around here ;)
1. MusicVR exits with this error:
Could you send me a +opengl trace of the problem ? Maybe the game is done
some strange things (like doing a SwapBuffer without a rendering context set
or stuff like that) which are OK on Windows and not on Linux.

If you could do a non-wine test case for that and see if it's just a buggy
driver, that'd be good.
It turns out not to be as simple as that. I did a +

Hi everyone,
I've been following Wine development for a while but
now I think it's time to contribute something. I don't
use Windows anymore (except for PowerPoint at work),
but I decided it would be good to be able to play some
games on Linux. So I grabbed Wine from CVS, compiled it
up and tested
