The past few weeks I have submitted various WGL patches. The first set of patches (which are in 0.9.20) improved Wine's pixel format advertising. The patches limited the number of supported pixel formats. This was needed because most formats advertised by Wine in fact weren't supported (they caused BadMatch errors and other issues). I think these patches broke the games you mentioned. Could you try 0.9.20 first?

The WGL patches which are in mike's tree are different ones. They move the WGL-specific opengl code from opengl32.dll to x11drv. The code itself isn't changed.

So first try if the problems appeared on 0.9.20 and then we will see further.
