           Summary: Hitman 2: Silent Assassin fails to draw intro
                    cinematic
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.1.35
          Platform: x86
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: minor
          Priority: P2
         Component: directx-d3d

With wine-1.1.35, when starting a new game in Hitman 2: Silent Assassin, an
intro cinematic is supposed to be rendered, but instead, the cinematic is drawn
as black for the entire duration, although in-game rendering seems fine. A
related problem occurs with the Eidos logo animation shown when starting the
game, where it is drawn extremely slow. Testing showed that rendering worked in
wine-1.0, and regression testing revealed:

    wined3d: Save some memory in vertex buffers.

    In most cases we're fine with the vbo and glMapBuffer and never use the
actual
    heap memory copy. Try to stick to just the vbo copy and avoid allocating
the
    extra heap memory. In case it is needed(emulation or vertex conversion),
fall
    back to the old double buffering mode.

Testing wine-1.1.18-300-g7b2a44f immediately prior to the commit did not show
the problem with either the Eidos logo animation or the intro cinematic.
glxinfo reports for my machine:

OpenGL vendor string: NVIDIA Corporation
OpenGL renderer string: GeForce 9800 GT/PCI/SSE2/3DNOW!
OpenGL version string: 3.2.0 NVIDIA 190.42

Interestingly, Hitman 2: Silent Assassin on a machine with an integrated Intel
video card and wine-1.1.35 does not exhibit the rendering problem. glxinfo on
that machine reports:

OpenGL vendor string: Tungsten Graphics, Inc
OpenGL renderer string: Mesa DRI Intel(R) G45/G43 GEM 20090712 2009Q2 RC3 
OpenGL version string: 2.1 Mesa 7.7-devel
