wine 0.95.2 fixes alot of stuff (such as minimap not working, aqua colored loading screens).

Here's the settings you need to play it:

*start with a clean wine directory or make a seperate one

· Add overrides for devenum.dll and dxdiagn.dll and Copy devenum.dll d3dx9_30.dll dxdiagn.dll to ~/.wine/drive_c/windows/system32/

· Run regedit and add the following key and string values:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ Software\ Wine\ Direct3D]
OffscreenRenderingMode = fbo
UseGLSL = enabled
VideoMemorySize = 256

· install updated through the unofficial NWN2patcher.

· Enjoy 

I THINK I did the registry changes correctly, I will post if someone wants to see them.  Basically I just created a string named each of those things and then set the value as the item after the = sign.
I am using Wine 1.1.4, NWN 2 version 1.11.1152 English, Ubuntu 8.04, and the ATI driver for my radion 2600.

When I launch the game, it seems to load ok (launcher, then splash screen) but as soon as the game itself launches, all I get is a pure black window that locks up.  I have to kill the process just to get it to close.

Any advice?  I don't even know where to start...  I hear that the ATI driver is potentially the problem?
