           Summary: Problems with King's Quest 2 remake from Tierra
           Product: Wine
           Version: CVS
          Platform: PC
               URL: http://www.tierraentertainment.com/KQ2.htm
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: wine-directx
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.com
        ReportedBy: moxh at hotmail.com


Wine 20021125 (cvs; wine-cvs-opengl-121502-1.i386.rpm)
RedHat 8
Some windows .dlls installed by windows programs, however none related to
directx (I think)

Game info: http://appdb.winehq.com/appview.php?appId=1097
Using game version 1.1

Steps to reproduce:
1) Install the game (it has a windows-based installer, works ok)
2) Run setup (wine winsetup.exe, works ok)
3) run the game (wine KQ2VGA.exe)
   The game loads (slowly), with some errors appearing in the console and
   in the game.
   When the main screen finally appears, the mouse is not usable. Thus the game
   cannot be played. The game is working, though, try for example pressing
   ctrl-q

Note: The game is based on Adventure Game Studio (AGS), which is closed source,
but free (http://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk). Furthermore, AGS is using
Allegro game library (http://alleg.sourceforge.net) for multimedia. Allegro is
open-source. 

Although Allegro is available for linux as well, the author of AGS is not
willing to port it to linux (http://www.agsforums.com/acfaq.htm). Since the
backend (Allegro) is available in open source, it should be relatively easy to
understand what is not working in wine in respect to AGS and King's Quest 2...

Solving problems with this particular game many other AGS/Allegro games would
probably work as well.

Will attach debug-logs later...
