The test results you have selected are very old and may not represent the current state of Wine.
Selected Test Results (selected in 'Test Results' table below)
What works
when the game is installed and starts up
everying works quite well!
What does not
- sometimes sound seems to be a little bit bumpy, but this could also be related to Pulsaudio
- I use a Nvidia GT8800 512MB!If the graphic settings have the value "very high" the performance goes down
What was not tested
nothing
Additional Comments
to get the game working I had to:
- obtain a native version of the "dbghelp.dll" library and set the values in wineconfig to native(Windows)
- check if the file:
~/.wine/drive_c/windows/profiles/username/Applicationdata/Ubisoft/Anno1404/Config/engine.ini
exists and check it for this configuration:
9

1280
960

"Failed to initalize Direct X"
by Lukas Tenbrink on Monday October 11th 2010, 11:40
I'm still not getting this to work.
I am using Winebottler for Mac. After I installed Anno1404, I applied winetrick "d3dx9", and then tried to override "dbghelp". So I started winecfg, and a window popped up. I witched to the tab "Libraries" (Thats how it looks like in Winebottler) and searched for existing overrides. As there was none, I created a new one "dbghelp", and edited it to be "Native(Windows)".
This didn't work, as well as typing "dbghelp.dll".
Tried on Gentoo x64.

I tried it on Gentoo x64 with different wine versions (1.1.44, 1.1.27, 1.2.0, 1.3.0). Everytime the same result. I see a brown screen with the hourglass mouse cursor and on terminal it repeats the following:

I use vanilla kernel 2.6.35.2 with KMS for my Radeon HD3870 and Mesa 7.8.2. No fglrx. Direct rendering is enabled. I set the DirectX version to 9 in Engine.ini and disabled intro videos by defining a local folder.
Unplayable slow
by Jannik H. on Saturday June 5th 2010, 13:46
Thanks to the instructions here, I managed to get it working by overriding dbghelp and editing Engine.ini. But it's unplayable slow. I get maybe 5-10 fps even with lowest settings. I think it should run smoother with GeForce 7600 GS gfx card and Athlon 3000+ processor. Any tips?
Things i've already done: winetricks d3dx9, regedit->DirectDrawRenderer OpenGL
Online-Profile
by Manu on Saturday February 6th 2010, 14:17
I have a new problem,
after my (offline) profile crashed the secound time, I decided to play online, so I wanted to create a online-profile, but Anno inside wine 1.1.35 tells me: my account-data is wrong.
And after I updated to 1.1.38 anno crashs when I start to create a online-profile.
Here's my AnnoCrash.log (with the 2 lines of german-code translated into english :P):

Anno not starting
by Tobias F. on Saturday October 10th 2009, 6:37
Used fresh 1.1.30 wine install on Ubuntu with ATI Graphics.
Installed DirectX9 from winetricks, set gbdhelp.dll to NATIVE(Windows) and added following registry keys:
"DirectDrawRenderer"="opengl"
"OffscreenRenderingMode"="fbo"
"PixelShaderMode"="enabled"
"UseGLSL"="disabled"
"VertexShaderMode"="hardware"
"VideoMemorySize"="256"
But all I get when starting the game is:

with ATI Cards
by ahmed on Friday July 24th 2009, 10:56
After hours of troubleshooting
if you have an ati card try the following:
from the command line launch regedit:
wine regedit
add a string value called "useGLSL" and set it to "disabled" to the key

Installing & Nvidia GT8800 - observations
by Steve De Caux on Wednesday July 22nd 2009, 3:22
Hi everybody, just like to add a couple of comments...
1. installing
- clean install of wine, winetricks install DX9
instead of just running setup.exe, I entered
> WINEDLLOVERRIDES="mscoree=" wine setup.exe
-> this prevents the directx install from taking forever
2. graphics setup for GT8800
2.1 regedit - see wiki.winehq.org/UsefulRegistryKeys 2.1.1 DirectDrawRenderer set to opengl - speeds the graphics up considerably
2.1.2 OffscreenrenderingMode has to be set to fbo (if entered - fbo is the default) - backbuffer messes up the fog of war and the minimap display, pbuffer causes crash
2.1.3 VideoMemorySize - I normally set this, but seems to make no difference to Anno 1404, because it creates BenchMark.xml (in install directory) as it installs & uses the values recorded there - you can run tools/Benchmark.exe from install dir to redo it.
2.2 Anno 1404 Options-Graphics
- the install sets graphics to medium for the GT8800
set Shadow Quality off - if I don't, the overall display is darker and the yellows seem to be missing
2.3 graphic artifacts - any help greatfully recieved
- the warehouse menu doesn't display the items, fill bar, and amounts aligned correctly. Same for each of the production buildings. This is a bit annoying, as it's hard to read the tonnage amounts due to superimposed borders.
- the shipyard menu has a mis-alignment between the build-completion 'clock' and the inner ship selection. No big deal.
Longest continuous play so far was 6 hours, by the end of that time the game was stuttering noticably, but subsequent reload (next day) solved the problem.
I have not had any crashes or lock-ups yet, so it looks like pure gold under wine, IMHO !
