Project I.G.I.: I'm Going In

What works

• Installation.
• Playing the game.
• In-game movie.
• Sounds.

What does not

• Impossible to move the mouse freely either in the main menu of the game or in-game: The mouse pointer seems to be confined to a region and cannot move beyond. (Maybe bug #30123 or #6971 ?).
• When run in Wine's full-screen mode, the game window automatically minimizes when the workspace is changed. (Bug #37937). It is then impossible to restore/activate it! (A fatal error occurs: "Couldn't flip. DirectX error message: DDERR_SURFACELOST").

Workarounds

To solve the problem of confined mouse pointer, mouse-warping needs to be forced:

$ wine reg add "HKCU\Software\Wine\DirectInput" /v MouseWarpOverride /t REG_SZ /d force /f

To prevent the game window from auto-minimizing, run the game under Wine's virtual-desktop mode:

$ wine explorer /desktop=,800x600 igi.exe

What was not tested

• Everything else.

Hardware tested

Graphics:

• GPU: Intel
• Driver: open source

Additional Comments

I am not sure if in-game music is supposed to play. If it is, then I heard nothing. (As noted above, sound works.)

The following message appears on the console, and is repeated (except for the last line) several times:

---
