HOWTO: Change Direct3D to OpenGL rendering
1. Go to Hitman 2's directory, which is likely ~/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/Eidos Interactive/Hitman 2 Silent Assassin
2. Then type this: wine notepad Hitman2.ini
3. On  the line "DrawDll RenderD3D.dll", Change it to "DrawDll RenderOpenGL.dll" 
4. Save the file

PS. Do NOT use editors like nano or pico. They'll save the "new line" as \n instead of \n\r which the game does not understand.


 
Note:

Make sure that you have your video drivers and xorg configured correctly.  Download and run Envy to do this. http://albertomilone.com/nvidia_scripts1.html

 

 
Note:
During gameplay in certain lighting, the character models may turn completely black.  If anyone has a fix, please let me know.

 
Note:
Under Ubuntu 7.04, and Wine version 9.49, bug 219 does not apply to this game.

Mac OSX Sound Issues
by Pasha on Friday September 21st 2012, 1:32
If you have issues with sound latency (or weird sound glitches) on Mac OSX go to winetricks and install dsound. Fixed everything for me, except sometimes when Diane talks to you her voice stutters, it's pretty rare though.

no need of changing DX to OpenGL.

Black cutscenes
by Alessandro Pezzoni on Tuesday July 5th 2011, 10:08
I installed as described here, but all the cutscenes are black (audio plays back fine, though).
Reverting to "DrawDll RenderD3D.dll" I can see them, but the textures are all wrong.
wine's output is quite unhelpful.

I am running wine 1.3.23 on Arch Linux, kernel 2.6.39. My graphics adapter is an nVidia GTX 560 Ti.
If you think I should report this as a bug, I will.

Thank you,
Alessandro P.

black characters

Using direct3d intead of opengl fixes the problem for me.

Black characters

In wine configuration, graphics tab, check off 'Allow Pixel Shaders' to fix the black characters.
