           Summary: In-game text slows down SimCopter
           Product: Wine
           Version: 0.9.51.
          Platform: PC
               URL: http://www.5star-
                    shareware.com/Windows/Games/Flight/simcopter.html
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: wine-directx-ddraw
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.org
        ReportedBy: baby.lueshi at gmail.com


When playing SimCopter, the game slows down every time you get mission-related
updates in the top left corner of the screen. The more lines of text on the
screen at a time, the more the game lags. After doing a trace, it seems that
SimCopter calls DrawTextA for those messages, and the calls are constantly
repeated while the message is on the screen. I'm thinking this is because
DirectDraw might render over the text and the text gets redrawn every time the
DirectDraw window does, but that's just a wild guess, and doesn't really
explain the slowdown.

This bug is in both the demo and retail version of the game.
