           Summary: FIFA World Cup 2006: invisible fonts with Intel Xorg
                    driver
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.1.23
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P2
         Component: directx-ddraw
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.org
        ReportedBy: hoehle at users.sourceforge.net


Sadly, FIFA WC/WM 2006 is barely useable with the Intel Xorg graphics driver
for the i915 device because all text is invisible in all menus.

These (partly animated) menus have a Shockware/Flash look&feel and are probably
drawn by the windows\system32\Macromed\Flash\Flash.ocx component that is
registered during installation.

This "invisible font" issue is quite different from ones I faced before in that
a +font,+xrender trace shows nothing. Also, Massimo's DIB engine doesn't help
here.

On my NVidia Mac with OSX 10.5.7, the game works flawlessly (I'll have to test
installation there before submitting a gold rating). Curiously, it doesn't even
need the three fonts EA05_Bod.ttf, EA05_Tit.ttf, EASSanCB.ttf that
CreateScalableFontResource() leaves in windows\temp\ during installation.

It's too bad that the fonts are invisible on the Intel HW.  Sound, Speech,
Animation, game play etc. are all working: The Intel's 3D is (almost) good and
fast enough for this game.

The default log produces the following noteworthy output:
fixme:d3d:IWineD3DDeviceImpl_Release (0x1404c0) Device released with resources
still bound, acceptable but unexpected
fixme:d3d:dumpResources Leftover resource 0x13cc18 with type
1,WINED3DRTYPE_SURFACE
fixme:d3d8:wined3dformat_from_d3dformat Unhandled D3DFORMAT 0x41

Using (K)Ubuntu 8.04 and 8.10 with similar results.

[Since wine-1.1.23, you need HKCU\Software\Wine\Direct3D
"OffscreenRenderingMode"="backbuffer" in order to start fifawc, see bug
#18956.]
