Summary: Starfleet Academy runs slow because of cursor
Product: WineHQ Bugzilla
Version: unspecified
Platform: PC
OS/Version: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: enhancement
Priority: P2
Component: bugzilla-unknown
AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.org
ReportedBy: colAflash at gmx.net
When playing "Starfleet Academy" on Wine it's really slow from the moment on,
it uses 3D acceleration.
This seems to be caused by the cursor. There is a really good way to test that.
In the main menu you click on settings (I use the German version, but in
English should be called settings or something similar). Then you get a little
area where you can see a starship flying through the stars. This area is 3D
accelerated. As soon as you move the cursor over the area everything becomes
very slow. If you put the cursor back to somewhere else on the screen
everything goes back to normal and fast.
If you start a mission to play, the whole screen is 3D accelerated. So it
becomes slow again and there is no way for a work around.
I also tried to set winecfg to emulate a virtual screen. But it helps me
nothing because if I take the cursor out of the virtual screen, the game keeps
rendering it at it's last position in virtual screen.
There are 3 executables in the "Starfleet Academy" directory.
sfa.exe
sfac.exe
sfad3d.exe
sfa.exe and sfac.exe seem to be pretty the same. In Windows startmenu the
installer makes a link for sfa.exe
So if using sfa.exe or sfac.exe the menu part of the game is not 3D
accelerated. But the playing part of the game and the described "area" in the
settings menu are still using 3D acceleration.
If using sfad3d.exe the whole game, including menus, is using direct 3d. So the
problem with the cursor also happends in the menus.
I'm using Wine version 1.1.3
I also tried the patched wine from
http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/dbuck/openSUSE_11.0/i586/
as described in this bug
http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10708
but it doesn't helps!
At least, my system:
OS: openSUSE 11.0
Wine Version: 1.1.3 from openSUSE repository
Processor: Intel Core Duo
Graphics: ATI Radeon Mobility X1600 (using proprietary drivers version
8.493.1-1-i386)
Please ask if you have questions! Thanks!
