Hello guys.
I'm running Premium Eve under wine with almost no problems except one.
I don't see any stations and no stargates.
i've googled but haven't found any solutions.

System:
AMD Athlon(tm) 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 4000+
Geforce 7600GT
2Gb DDR2
Gentoo Linux 2.6.23-gentoo-r3
Wine 9.54

I'm using Fedora 8 x86_64 and wine 9.55 and the only issues I'm having are the invisible objects when premium content is enabled. I was wondering when the premium available for us linux users.i do get lock-up when sound is enabled so I run silent and disable sound in winecfg.

I am running dual boot with Windows, thanks.

Any usable advice ?

---

What? You just completely ignored my advice.

No, it just seemed like a logical thing to try.

Your problems may be related to your videocard.
Ati card + latest drivers (8.x) are reported to have compatibility problems with wine altrough the overal compatibilti and performance with linux native opengl games/aplications improved alot in the latest versions of the catalyst.

premium content wont work probably with ati cards for the moment
u can try to disable it from your EVE prefs.ini to see if the classic content is working for you:

audio=0
bloom=0
hdrEnabled=0
trinityVersion=dx8
voiceenabled=0

Please let us know if u had any success with the classic content (dx8)

PS: by default prefs.ini is located in [YourHomeDir]/.wine/drive_c/windows/profiles/[YourUsernameHere]/Local Settings/Application Data/CCP/EVE/[PathToYourEveDir]_tranquility


PS2: also check if your X/opengl is set right (glxinfo say it use direct rendering) and if your wine is set up right

here u can see some useful registy keys: http://wiki.winehq.org/UsefulRegistryKeys
u can modify them by runing regedit

Play special atention at :

DirectDrawRenderer : set it to opengl
OffscreenRenderingMode : fbo is told to be best for eve under wine but u can try the other options to see if it make any diference
UseGLSL : try to set it to disable to see if it make any diference
VideoMemorySize : set your video card mem amount corectly

After doing everything recommended by various places. I have eve working on standard graphics as well as it can, pretty much perfect except certain weapon effects arent working like lasers.

Although I can't run it with premium graphics, it loads fine and I can fly around and everything, just that no models whatsoever are rendered, no stations, no gates, no ships. All I see is a load of floating lights and effects.

Using Wine 1.1.1.0, Eve Empyrian age, with Catalyst 8.6 drivers on an ATI 3850 card.

Picture of Punisher in front of Minmatar station, Planet models show fine though.

Hello. Do I still need the Elfe's patch (edit:or any other patch) and if so where can I get it from? I've tried all the links I could find but nothing seems to work.

I've installed and re-installed EVE now for quite many times.. both for wine and cedega. On Cedega I could actually play the game but space being white I decided to give wine another go.. Now I can't even get to the EULA part. Just a short blink on the startup screen. This is what I get when I run eve.exe

err:ole:CoGetClassObject class {9a5ea990-3034-4d6f-9128-01f3c61022bc} not registered
err:ole:CoGetClassObject no class object {9a5ea990-3034-4d6f-9128-01f3c61022bc}could be created for context 0x1

I've done a lot of things suggested in here.. and I'm sure the answer is here somewhere but I'm quite new to linux so I'm not sure if I've done everything correctly.

If I remeber correctly I could get to the login screen before installing cedega and reinstalling wine and eve. So maybe I messed something up while doing that.

I'm using ATI's 8.4 drivers and wine 1.0

All suggestions greatly appreciated.

Thx.

Ok. Problem solved.. at least one of them. I had messed up my wine directory and was missing some important files. Removed it and deleted all the files from the directory and reinstalled. So now I can run EVE and the graphics seem to be ok. (space is black and so on..) FPS seem to be on a decent level. The only problem I have now is the picture keeps breaking constantly, bringing parts of the desktop on top of the game graphics. I've set audio off, ran the REDISTD3DX file, moved arial to the fonts dir, and tried different cache settings. Should I copy some dll files that I might be missing, or regedit wine setting (adding some keys or something) Like you can probably see I'm pretty new to this so if you can give some advises please try to be as clear as possibly =) Oh and I should be running ati now with 8.6 drivers and I couldn't install wine 1.1

Yep no corruption at all, inside the station back ground works, but your ship and the platform its supposed to hover over is invisible. Incase anyone was going to mention the official linux release from ccp with integrated cedega functions, I had far worse luck with it, I think I'm within touching distance of getting wine eve working great.

Anyway

That command yields the output.

Linux spindizzy-desktop 2.6.24-19-generic #1 SMP Wed Jun 18 14:43:41 UTC 2008 i686 GNU/Linux

Yeah sorry, never explained I'[m using Ubuntu 8.04 Hardy Heron.

I don't know whats useful to you there, though I see the kernel version. Had to have pci=nomsi permanently on to get it working past 2.6.24.16. :D (Searching the internet seems to indicate having no msi is nothing that should be too crucial to substantially affect general use)

Also I've upgraded Wine from 1.1.0 to 1.1.1 today and ...not much difference, though I should be thankful, not out of the ordinary for updates sometimes to make some games much worse.

I've tried playing with the direct3d settings in the registry of the wine windows installation, got nothing doing really. So i'm going to try going back from the 8.6 drivers to 8.5 and see what they're like.

[Edit] Bugger! using older drivers didn't work, problem still there :-/ [/Edit]

in your xorg.conf in device section (where you have the fglrx driver) add this:

Option "PseudoColorVisual" "on"

That should fix that one. The other error messages are quite normal and I get them too.

---

Thanks for the help. It didn't fix the problem with the flashing graphics but I'm sure it fixed something else.

After setting the registry keys I can fix graphics by applying window mode and applying full screen again. I think it's a problem with my x700 mobility...

I found this on http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_ATI_Drivers :

/etc/X11/xorg.conf:

Section "Device"
Identifier "aticonfig-Device[0]"
Driver "fglrx"
BusID "PCI:1:0:0"
.....................
Option "UseFastTLS" "2"
Option "EnablePrivateBackZ" "on"
.....................
EndSection


# UseFastTLS - There are three settings:

* 0 - Fast
* 1 - Faster
* 2 - Compatible - Some applications (such as wine) may not work at settings other than 2

# EnablePrivateBackZ - For one Linux game (Darwinia), with this setting on everything was fine, but with it off the game was centered on the left of the screen, so that only the right half was visible. Also for this option when using an ATI X1300 Pro on a Dell Dimension E521 this fixed a problem with running fgl_glxgears (and glxgears) displaying gibberish in the created window.

---

This may be helpfull for some ati owners

Well I read somewhere on Wine wiki that Wine disabled OpenGL when it detects "UseFastTLS" "2" so I am confused a bit about that setting.

---

Are you an ati owner and actualy tested this settings ?
Do you have a wine wiki link where we can read more about it ?


PS: i do have an ati card (hd3870) on my windoze station , but i didnt tested it yet on linux (hardcore nvidia till 6 momths ago, still use an nvidia on my tux machine )

read what I could but 73 pages is way to much.

so. New to Linux (finally broke the windows addiction...sorta) I have UBUNTO 8.04 and tried the linux client w/cedega. In station my fps were about 40 or so, but he station was rendered very very badly. vertical bars everywhere... undocked fps were 4-6 but other than the station rendering everything appeared to be fine except he **** poor fps so decided to try wine.

First issue I had was the EULA screen appearing blank. searching for 4 hours here finally found me the install arial.ttf bit. did that.. low and behold the EULA appeared! Yay!

Log into the game running premium graphics and what do I see... 1/2 of my ship, bits and pieces of the station, and a lot of odd effects (i'm not a techno wiz so bear with my descriptions eh? lol). I decided to try standard graphics and everything looks and runs fine.... so far.

I have an amd athalon 2gig based system. nvidia 7600gt vid card(512 meg). 1.5 gigs ram. onboard VIA sound. I can deal with standard graphics but... I can't seem to get wine to run multiple eve clients, anyone willing to point me in that direction? Remember. I am TOTALLY new to Linux and wine other than very minor messing around with REDHAT a few years ago. Consider me a total Linux Newb (you would be 100% correct)

Hi all,

Got a problem hope someone could help

I have installed the cenega client, and after some time manage to make it works.
But since I'm a ATI owner (my next one WILL be a nVidia...), I have the white screen bug.
It's really annoying and ugly, so I try the wine option

Everything went right, I connect (arial font pb) manage to log and get myself back in station (much quicker that with the cenega version). I undock and them the client freeze (I have to kill it)

Now when I launch it freeze when I reach the character section.
Using a xterm to launch it give this :

An idear anyone ?

I use

+Wine 1.1.2
+ATI RADEON X600 (my next one will be a nVidia !)

Thx for any help

Fly safe

Aito

PS : btw I see everywhere to disable hdr => I understand it in the graphic setting, but on the cenega version I press ESC and go in the graphic tab but faile dto see any 'hdr' option. Can someone could be more specific please

Any ideas on what's wrong? I have HDR and shadows off with no graphical glitches under premium.

I'm on openSUSE 11 with wine 1.1.2 installed. I got the Premium Client to install file. I copied over the DirectX files mentioned above. I installed the Arial fonts. However, when I load the game, I hear the music and see the initial screen, except it looks like a EULA window or something is up. There is no text in the window, and I can't scroll down. However, it says scroll down to continue. If I hit escape, I get the configuration screen. At this point the sound is working. I tell it to turn shadows off, and it says to restart the client. When it comes back, it says there is no audio device and the sound stops working. I still have the "scroll down to continue" window.

Can I pass that screen with a setting somewhere that I've accepted the EULA?
