HowTo / Notes

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.

The following has been extracted from an old user comment; it may or may not be relevant to current Wine.


If you have issues with sound latency (or weird sound glitches) on Mac OSX go to winetricks and install dsound.
