PWI with Linux

Added notice about this thread by Darthpanda16: Will make this a stickie until the community has a few proven methods worked out, then I may add the community's suggestions into the Tech Support FAQ. Even though we don't support Linux, I figured this would be helpful to you all.
One of my computers runs ubuntu and when i try to play PWI using the program Wine the skills are all messed up. The pictures are weird looking, very multi colored and its the same with items in my inventory. If anyone knows anything I can do or if the programmers are trying to make PWI for linux also it would be great.

I can play PW alright in wine 1.1.2 in Gentoo, but I had to apply this patch and recompile wine: http://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=16817
This is the WineHQ bug for the image problem: http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12560
There might be some other tips with getting it to work on Ubuntu.0 -
While we don't officially support PWI running under programs like Boot Camp or Wine, it sounds like using the Verify feature on the launcher might resolve that issue. Otherwise, it's possible that it's a graphics card problem.==/Senior QA Lead/==

It's a problem with how Wine handles S3TC (texture compression) and if it's disabled PWI looks correct. The sucky part is you can only disable it by patching wine's source code and recompiling Wine.0 -
Thanks for the posts guys/girls.0

Does this patching/recompiling affect how Wine works for other games? I'm about to do it but don't wanna cause my Wine to become unusable for everything else than PW.
Also has Wine been contacted about this a long time ago and are they planning on adding this patch into future releases of Wine?
Oh and do I have run this patch everytime I upgrade my Wine?0 -

Im attempting to run this using wine (OSX) But i dont know the command prompt that I should use to open the game. Do i use "wine Launcher.exe" or something else? I use this command and it pulls up the launcher and it says connecting to server but in terminal it shows internet connection time out. Did I need to install that little mozilla thing while installing the game?
Also how do you patch wine?0 -
remorce: You managed to install the game. You can launch the game in a similar fashion. "wine Launcher.exe" is one way to do that.
Connecting the server the first time I ran the game seemed to take ages but eventually it managed to connect and contacted the update server.
If that doesn't help then try to hit "Upd. settings" in the launcher and set the info there correctly. IIRC the first part choose "patch" then on the following 3 checkboxes mark the first and the third which should be automatically and allow it to resume after being shut down or something along those lines.
The little Mozilla thingie shouldn't be mandatory, but I did install it.
As for the patching I'm about to post a thread to do that on Linux here on the Tech Support forums. You might be able to use that info to patch your Wine too.[Tech Support Junkie]

Nearly every Linux user running Perfect World through Wine will have this error where the game map and all the icons are totally scrambled.
To correct this problem you need to compile Wine from source code. Fear not if you haven't done it before. It's not that hard, especially with instructions.
This step is called the Wine S3TC ****. Basically what you do is take 2 files and edit them a bit before compiling from source.
First, get the Wine source code from here: ftp://ftp.ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/ALPHA/wine/development/ or http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=6241&package_id=77449
The official releases are tagged by date with the format "Wine-YYYYMMDD.tar.gz". Your best bet is to grab the latest one.
I'd recommend placing the Wine archive file that you chose into the directory where you intend to extract Wine. In this case, let's just assume that it is your home directory.
Once you have downloaded a Wine archive file, we need to extract the archive file. This is not very hard to do. First switch to the directory containing the file you just downloaded. Then extract the source in a terminal with (e.g.): tar xvzf wine-20030115.tar.gz
Just in case you happen to get a Wine archive that uses .tar.bz2 extension instead of .tar.gz: Simply use tar xvjf in that case instead.
Then navigate to the folder that just extracted and open in your favourite text editor a file called 'dlls/wined3d/device.c'.
Once there you gotta navigate to the row 6001 and delete out that line and the next one. They should say:
GL_EXTCALL(glCompressedTexImage2DARB(glDescription->target, glDescription->level,
glDescription->glFormatInternal, srcWidth, srcHeight, 0, destSize, data));
Then replace them with the line that says:
FIXME("PW no S3TC support");
Save and close the file, then open in your text editor a file called 'directx.c' that resides in the same directory as the last one.
Find the line 2306 that should say:
return TRUE;
Change it into:
return FALSE;
Then save and exit.
Once that is done navigate up a few times into the wine main directory. Once there execute a command (as a user, meaning without the 'su' or 'sudo' command) "./tools/wineinstall" that should now compile the code and install it automatically. If you're well versed in the art of command line you can compile it by hand instead if you want to. You will be asked for your password later. Enter it. Also after it has compiled you will be asked whether you want to install it too. Answer yes. After a while you should have it done.
Few sidenotes:
- You could also save those lines I said you should delete by putting " /* " in front of and " */ " after them, but since you can easily extract the files again from the archive I see no reason for it.
- The change in the files were originally meant for Wine version '1.1.14' but I can confirm they worked on version '1.1.15' too. Most likely on some newer ones too.
- Most likely you have some other version of Wine already installed. Installing this shouldn't replace your possibly edited config files. At least it didn't for me. You might still want to backup the files before you proceed.
- Installing this patched version of Wine shouldn't cause any problems with your other games, of course unless you have self patched the files earlier. In that case just apply the other patches before compiling. I tried World Of Warcraft and Fallout 2 which worked flawlessly after the patch.
- You don't have to have the same or one step older Wine version installed before you do this. I had 1.1.10 earlier and now applied the patch with version 1.1.15.
- This patch shouldn't correct the invisible cursor bug some people have told they have. I never experienced it. If you want to correct that bug too you might want to google for the patch info (I know it's there, I've seen some links to it) and apply it in a similar fashion before compiling.
In case you want to check out the bug page on winehq here's the link: http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12560
In which the code change part was posted by the user 'heema' (thanks to him/her) and a link to heema's attachment containing the fixes: http://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=19211
There you can actually see few of the surrounding lines with the changed ones in case you're having troubles locating them. Also you might be able to apply that attachment as a patch into the files directly by using the 'patch' command, but I'm not familiar with it so I did it manually by text editor as described above.
Some info here was taken directly from the Codeweavers site over here: http://www.codeweavers.com/support/docs/wine-user/getting-wine-source
Hope this helped at least someone. Long live Linux gaming![Tech Support Junkie]

I get a connection timeout error(unable to connect to internet) so I think I need to install gecko. which I didnt do before. How would I go about installing gecko into wine?
EDIT I found this http://wiki.jswindle.com/index.php/Advanced_Wine_User_Installation#Installing_Gecko Just dont know what it means by downloading it? Help.
EDIT 2. I decided to re install. (wine)0 -
Gecko should be installed automatically when you get the message. If not then basically what you gotta do is get 'winetricks' script.
In the link you posted you can find the link for winetricks. The 'ln' and 'chmod' lines there just make a link to other directory and make winetricks an executable.
Dunno how you handle chmod in OSX, but I hope you know, just make it an executable somehow. The ln part you can forget, since it's not important. Then just execute winetricks with the added info 'gecko'. For OSX there's a nice winetricks frontend called TRIX. You could try it and install gecko that way.
I just don't think Gecko is what causes the problem, or even that where you cannot connect to internet. Judging by the error code I'd say it has something to do with that opengl extension.[Tech Support Junkie]

This is what I see as a problem. OpenGL is kinda a layer between your computer and graphics card. Updating your graphics card drivers would be your best bet. What kind of card are you using?[Tech Support Junkie]

i'm new to linux, but i am wondering how i download it, i tried the direct download, and i got a error saying unrecognized file, i tried the torrent, but it didni't find anyone to get it from any help would be greatly apperciated0
-
@remorce: Sorry, can't decipher those errors too well. I bet no one is actually really good with those. All I can say is that I checked the graphics card and from what I understand it should be sufficient to run the game.
@Tequila_wolf: You mean downloading Linux or Perfect World? I presume you meant PW. If you haven't got Wine installed you might get unrecognized file error when you open the file, but the download itself should go without any problems.
As for the torrent part, normally you need a bit of time before it connects. Don't know how familiar you are with torrents but the speed is always worse in the beginning than it is in the end.
With torrents be sure to get the right one, by which I mean the official. Some sites may offer the same client in their own torrent but in those there's hardly any seeders.
http://download.perfectworld.com/pwi/clients/Perfect_World_International_install.torrent would be the one that I used and there were few hundred seeds available.
If you can't connect to seeds with torrent there might be something wrong with your torrent settings. In that case make sure you're connectable.[Tech Support Junkie]

Yeah but the card has no drivers.
Anyways. Installing on mothers comp. PC and it has a good card. I think.
How do you find the type of card installed on windows?0 -
Through Control Panel you should be able to get to System info and Hardware list in where you should see what kind of card the computer ha.
Also there's a free diagnostics program called "SiSoft Sandra" that can tell you lots of stuff about your computer.[Tech Support Junkie]

Having some problems installing it myself:
Gets to 99% on the unicows.dll file and then returns the error:
fixme:event:wait_for_withdrawn_state window 0x10062/a0002a wait timed out
Been looking for answers to this, but if anyone can help, it would be appreciated.
Thank you.0 -
I tried googling with your error message (without the numbers as they always vary) and got quite many relevant answers. You could look into that, I'm a bit busy going to sleep right now so I don't have time. Also, what Wine version are you using? I'd upgrade to latest one, or at least nigh latest, 1.1.14 or higher.[Tech Support Junkie]

Yeah, I browsed google, and I sort of fixed the problem in that it no longer returns that error message, however, it still gets to 99% and fails to complete the installation.
Using the latest version of wine, and I've updated and disabled everything that I was supposed to, and I have the unicows.dll file, but, eh. <__>0 -
Hiya,
I have been playin in Ubuntu since last year
Here is my SS playin in linux
http://i43.tinypic.com/2vsj813.png
The skills (xcept macros) and items graphics are garbled. Others are fine tho.
My computer specs:
OS: Ubuntu 8.10
Proc: Core2 Duo 3GHz
Motherboard: Asus P5N-D
VGA: NVIDIA GeForce 9600 GT (if im not mistaken)
RAM 4GB
What I did in my Ubuntu:
1. Install the latest Wine distribution (the development release)
http://www.winehq.org/site/download
2. Install DirectX 9.0c into the wine
3. Install PWI and updates
The Settings of Wine:
Windows version: WinXP
Graphic:
- Tick emulate virtual desktop, set the size as necessary. It doesn't matter when you play full screen in virtual desktop as it resize by itself.
I play PWI full screen in virtual desktop. I don't know why the position of all the interface's position went to the top left when the client minimized without virtual desktop.
- DirectX 3D : Hardware, turn on pixel shader
I hope that help. If you want to ask something, you can PM me, Ulty, in Lost City server.0 -
Ulty, go check out my message about installing the Wine patch to fix the skills and item graphics on the first or second page of this thread.[Tech Support Junkie]

Once there you gotta navigate to the row 6001 and delete out that line and the next one. They should say:
GL_EXTCALL(glCompressedTexImage2DARB(glDescription->target, glDescription->level,
glDescription->glFormatInternal, srcWidth, srcHeight, 0, destSize, data));
Then replace them with the line that says:
FIXME("PW no S3TC support");
Save and close the file, then open in your text editor a file called 'directx.c' that resides in the same directory as the last one.
Find the line 2306 that should say:
return TRUE;
Change it into:
return FALSE;
Then save and exit.
Once that is done navigate up a few times into the wine main directory. Once there execute a command (as a user, meaning without the 'su' or 'sudo' command) "./tools/wineinstall" that should now compile the code and install it automatically. If you're well versed in the art of command line you can compile it by hand instead if you want to. You will be asked for your password later. Enter it. Also after it has compiled you will be asked whether you want to install it too. Answer yes. After a while you should have it done.
Thx that works.
few additional notes tho to avoid confusion (as I did):
in Wine 1.1.16, the line that you must delete/comment out in 'dlls/wined3d/device.c' line number 6069. The other one has the same line number.0 -
I still don't quite understand why it locks up at 99% at the unicows.dll file and then uninstalls itself with no error messages.
You told me to google it, and I did, and I came up with 3 pages of stuff, looked through most everything relevant, but nothing has fixed it.
Using Wine 1.1.16
Knoppix distro0 -
It might just be that unicows.dll isn't the problem but something after that and it only shows unicows.dll there since it was the last properly installed file.
On the other hand if it indeed is about unicows.dll you can browse the internet and download the file separately and see if that helps. Most likely it won't but never be too sure.
EDIT:
Might be that you're missing some other .dll files. Google for "winetricks", install it and through it install the .dll packets, most importantly msvc*'s.
What other games have you played with your current Wine installation?[Tech Support Junkie]

so save that into r /home/wine-1.1.2
then just follow this command line:patch -p1 < patch name ./configure; make; make install
this command take some time...
I got some error trying 2 install, so what i did is
install under windowsxp then copy all to my .wine/drive_c/program files/
and im doing patch now ..
soon i'll post some results..
and i don't install
DirectX thing hehehehe...0 -
Once that is done navigate up a few times into the wine main directory.
I think i did everything correct with downloading, editing files etc, now
I keep getting an error when i run wineinstall with terminal. It saysWine Installer v1.0
You're running this from the wrong directory.
Change to the Wine source's main directory and try again.
Any idea from where i should run it? When i automatically install it (from add/remove programs) i get wine folders in usr/lib/wine and home/name/.wine
I start to think my file is just corrupted because i tried a few folders and i keep getting the same error... but anyway could someone tell me exactly the location the he extracted the files? Like usr/lib/wine_1.1.16/tools/wineinstall etc... and describe a bit which commands he used to run it or if he changed any folder names... in case i am doing something wrong.
Thanks a lot.
PS: Running ubuntu 8.10 for a while and i managed to get quite a few games working so i 'm quite annoyed with this.0 -

well it seems u have 2 change r wine directory...
to whatever u want..
i just install my programs at home folder..
so u can pick up a new location...
u can move or even copy the intire directorymv wine-1.1.2 /home/yourfolder (move) ----- cp wine-1.1.2 /home/yourfolder (copy)
and then try 2 run wineinstall thing..
i never run this command line hehehe... XD
to change folder names i just use cp
like if i wanna change my /home/briancp /home/brian /home/perfectworld

Ethismos:
The wine source folder is the one where you extracted the source files that you downloaded. Normally the source comes in packaged format. You just need to remember/check where you extracted it.
Most likely it will be '/home/<yourusername>' or '/home/<yourusername>/Desktop'
You don't need to touch any of your automatically installed wine files or folders.[Tech Support Junkie]
