RE: Not so bad as of late, but a few notes by Kaede on Saturday December 25th 2010, 1:18 I forgot to add that you also need a recent (2.6.35 or 2.6.36) kernel to avoid access violations. [post new] [reply to this] RE: Not so bad as of late, but a few notes by Kaede on Saturday December 25th 2010, 2:11 One more note... if you are getting access violations after pushing the graphics settings above Low, it is likely because the game cannot properly detect your video card. I don't know the specifics of it, but this seems to fix it for me (on NVIDIA): HYKEY_CURRENT_USER > Software > Wine > Direct3D UseGLSL: disabled OffscreenRenderingMode: fbo DirectDrawRenderer: opengl VideoMemorySize: VRAM_SIZE_IN_MB (e.g 1024 for 1GB of VRAM) Earlier posters have found similar solutions of varying effectiveness.

I was able to almost completely eliminate the problem on my graphics card (GTS 450), by using fullscreen mode instead and forcing wine to emulate a virtual desktop of the window size I wanted. Make sure to pick a fullscreen mode in the game to match. After this I was able to use High (but not Ultra, despite having a 1GB card) textures without the huge black bars.

I have shaders on low, and the rest of the options which on medium (with the ones requiring the processor on high). I usually don't experience any problems except for some lag when there are too many units on the map. I've also got 2GB of RAM and an Intel Duo Core 2.00GHz processor.

(All gfx settings on low, but I had that in windows too). So don't be scared to try if your card is a little older :) [post new] [reply to this]
