Hmm, didn't notice a wineguid problem, I just added this around the same line for d3dx8 in configure.ac, ran autoconf and went on as normal: dlls/d3dx9/Makefile > Upon loading, it shows the usual intro screen.

I ran around for a bit seemingly without problems for a while, but the very first time I tried it did bomb out right at the start like with opengl. I made a screenshot of just outside a start room. The terrain seems to be textured, whereas everything else isn't. I guess terrain is handled differently. If you want to see it I've got it up on a webpage: http://giblets.org/games/wow/ If a fullsize screenshot is useful to anyone let me know and I'll email one over. Performance in this state is rather good. It seems to be very smooth running forward. Turning is less smooth, but definately playable. The machine is relatively powerful though - 3500+ Athlon 64, 1GB ram and a GeForce 6800. On the OpenGL front, I too get scuppered by the minimap error. It looks very promising otherwise though. -- Alex
