What works

everything at high frame-rate, i'm very happy with this :D

considering my old set-up..


What does not

[bugs]

-had to use 'wine eject -a' when asked to insert next CD during install process, also had to add the drive to my winecfg, see below.

-had to add my CDROM drive under 'Drives' tab in 'winecfg';

i.e.

add D: Drive,

under Advanced button;

'/media/dvd'

'CDROM'


-Some textures when using 'Direct3D HW T&L' flicker..
i.e. roads and guns on AI

-Desktop cursor is visible in top left corner of screen after the cursor has been locked to the game one

[notes]

-'Direct3D HW T&L' is much much faster then 'Direct3D', although does contain the above bugs.


-'Glide' was not tested due to 'glide3x.dll' error.


-Mods work perfectly, no crashes, no slow down

-Starting with a very simple script, works well;

 ['OPF.sh' file]

 **

cd ~/games/OFP
export WINEPREFIX=~/games/OFP/.wine
WINEDEBUG=-all wine FLASHPOINTRESISTANCE.EXE -nomap -nosplash

**

'FLASHPOINTRESISTANCE.EXE' works well without needing the CD mounted or in CDROM drive. Using 'FlashpointPreferences.exe' instead works too, good for tweaking and CPU benchmarks.


What was not tested
-completed 100% all CWC & RES
-multiplayer only tested for a very short period

Known bugs
Bug # Description Status Resolution Other apps affected
27490 Operation FlashPoint GOTY 1.96 - button on my keyboard 4 ('{) and 6 (-|) inactive. UNCONFIRMED View

 
INSTALLATION HOWTO

Install graphic card drivers, with native OpenGL. Do not enable TwinView, or dual screen.

On 64-bit systems, the 32-bit graphic driver libs need to be installed too, other wise the game wont start, complaining about missing DirectX.

Copy all files from a windows installation, as they are, to the wine drive.
(Contents of C:\Program Files\Codemasters\OperationFlashpoint)

Save your ID from a windows registry in a .reg file, with these two keys:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Codemasters\Operation Flashpoint]
"MAIN"="C:\\Program Files\\Codemasters\\OperationFlashpoint"
"KEY"=hex:aa,ab,ac,ad,ae,af,ba,bc,bd,be,bf,ca,cb,cd,ce

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Codemasters\Operation Flashpoint]
"Player Name"="Your Name"

Apply these registry settings in your Wine instance. Verify them, as you may need to set these manually within the regedit of wine.

Start the game with "wine FLASHPOINTBETA.EXE -nosplash [-mod=@YourMod] .."

Once the game started, start a wine task manager with: "wine taskmgr" and set the CPU affinity for the flashpoint process to a single CPU. Other wise there will be massive lag in multiplayer after a few minutes.

opengl ??

Hi,

This is a copy of a message sent to JJ in hope it helps other
users :

JJ said " builtin opengl32.dll ... not enough free RAM".

Ofp runs with d3d8.dll, so there is no need to overload opengl32.dll.
That may cause ofp to complain.
So "remove" it with winecfg.

( pity we can't overload dlls per .exe !! )

Here is my d3d sample user.reg for running ofp.
---------------------
[Software\\Wine\\Direct3D] 1220559345
"DirectDrawRenderer"="opengl"
"Multisampling"="enabled"
"OffscreenRenderingMode"="backbuffer"
"PixelShaderMode"="enabled"
"RenderTargetLockMode"="auto"
"VideoMemorySize"="128"
----------------------
+ use wine FlashpointPreferences.exe to further tweaks ...

Hope it hepls !

Best regards.

For ATi users
by Romu on Wednesday August 6th 2008, 8:58
I run Debian Etch + Kernel 2.6.18-6 with an ATI rad 9200
On a very small config.
Most of my crashes where due to ATI fast TLS.

Add this in xorg.conf in "Device" section :
Option "Capabilities" "0x00000800"
Option "UseFastTLS" "off"
Option "KernelModuleParm" "locked-userpages=0"

Now runs fine for me.

Hope it helps !

RE: Gfx settings?

Use D3D only
And try to use regedit to insert tweaking values do direct3d
cf : wiki.winehq.org/UsefulRegistryKeys

Hope this may help.

OfP For Ever !
