    -MSI 1029 LAPTOP set at 1280x800 Resolution.

    I have Compiz-fusion (I believe) and all my drivers working perfectly. Anyway, to the problem. When I play WoW I get REALLY bad framerate and I also get that whole issue with the terrain and whatnot. I was just wondering what I could do to fix it or make it a bit better. My laptop supports the game VERY well (******* Lawls) so I know it's capable and was wanting to get the same performance from Ubuntu as well (I'm gonna switch when I get all the kinks worked out)

    Hey all,

    I've been lurking here a while, great info from the community. I wanted to chime in with my progress, Specs as follows:

    Sony Vaio VGN-NR110E
    Intel Pentium Dual Core
    1GB RAM
    Intel X3100 gfx
    Xubuntu Gutsy
    wine 0.9.47 (couldn't get any newer versions to launch WoW)

    wine regedit tweak has been done, running in XP mode with pixel shader off. Config.wtf follows:

    SET readTOS "1"
    SET readEULA "1"
    SET readScanning "-1"
    SET readContest "-1"
    SET readTerminationWithoutNotice "-1"
    SET locale "enUS"

    SET shadowLOD "0"
    SET uiFaster "2"
    SET SoundOutputSystem "1"
    SET SoundBufferSize "150"

    After some serious trial and error, I've got WoW installed and running pretty decently. Icons and character screen work fine, minimap works fine, world renders and displays properly both indoors and out, and everything runs at a framerate comparable to Windows on the same hardware (15-20 fps in Orgrimmar, not great but playable.) The issue is, no characters show up on screen, mine included. I can see my (and other characters) weapon, shoulder and head armor...but the characters themselves are invisible. I can see pets and mounts, but no NPCs. I don't expect anybody has fixed this issue on X3100 hardware, or we would have heard about it here....but does anybody have an idea of which direction I should go from here? I'm happy to have made it this far honestly, after reading that X3100 users may not be able to run WoW at all, but I would love to actually see characters

    Thx to all for this great resource!

    Turn off Compiz when playing WoW.

    Re: Howto: WOW with Wine (help.ubuntu.com/community/WorldofWarcraft)

    Okay, check this out. I got a new laptop this weekend. It's a refurbished HP Pavillion dv6604nr

    Specs are as follows

    -AMD Athlon 64 X2 TK-55
    -NVIDIA GeForce Go 7150M
    -2 Gig RAM installed
    -Running Ubuntu 7.10 (It was a fresh install until I started playing around with my little sound issue thing with the headphones but that's another beast that I'll read around about).

    First thing, for a seemingly bad *** computer, my other laptop with an ATI Mobility Radeon X700 (mentioned above) plays WoW in XP immaculately. I dare to say that that's the best gaming laptop I've seen so far even without out all the critical hardware.

    This laptop, though I love it for it's awesome support with Ubuntu, play WoW, even in Vista, very sluggishly (it came with Vista so I keep the laptop Dualbooted with Gutsy being my main OS as of right now since I don't really like how Vista isn't as sleek and spiffy as Gutsy is.

    Anyway, to the problem. I've done every fix that I could find.

    These fixes include:
    -Adding the Registry key to Wine
    -Modifying the Conf.wtf with those lines
    -Turning off Compiz when I play
    -Using Winefix and the script
    Code:
    winefix -n "-10" 'c:\Program Files\World of Warcraft\Wow.exe' -opengl
    In game, I also disabled a bunch of settings to hopefully bump up the FPS. The thing that made a huge impact was the object/Terrain distance thing (I set it to near so I could at least keep spell and casts looking sweet an textures looking sharp). I also changed some video settings that sorta helped. My biggest beef is when I engage in combat, my FPS drops to around 6-10. When flying around an open area, my FPS is roughly 17-23.

    Is this all just something I'm going to have to live with? Only reason I ask is because being a big PvPer in the game, I need to make some snap decisions or I could find myself letting...say my arena teams down.

    Btw, I think right now Gutsy is giving me better performance than Vista...but I honestly think it's more capable of that since I've seen people out there with FRAPS while still running a decent looking Warcrack.

    Re: Howto: WOW with Wine (help.ubuntu.com/community/WorldofWarcraft)

    I just installed WOW using the download method. It seemed to install fine. Now, when I go to start it, it will play the opening movie, and then quits. It has done this every time. I tried the registry thing and the DLL patch, but it is still doing this. I am using a Toshiba Satellite with a 1.5 Ghz CPU and 1 gig of ram(my desktop is dead for the moment). When I was running XP on here, WOW would play perfectly. Any help here would be greatly appreciated as I really want to play WOW again. Thanks

    Here's the code I get when I try to run it from the terminal.

    People please stop trying to make the "in Windows" argument and compare it to your experience with Ubuntu. Apples and Oranges.

    Ahem... Now, look at your WoW Config.wtf file...

    movie "0"
    expansionMovie "0"

    Look for those lines - if they are not 0, make them 0.

    Re: Howto: WOW with Wine (help.ubuntu.com/community/WorldofWarcraft)

    Thanks. I did that and started it from terminal with the d3d flag and it seemed to work now. I was just comparing it to windows in the aspect that it would run smoothly as far as the memory and cpu are concerned. I really prefer Ubuntu over Windows. No more blue screen of death, no more weekly argument with Microsoft over the fact that the copy of XP I was running was my copy and not pirated. Once I get WOW running smoothly, I will never again look back at Microsoft.

    Wine has overhead, and I'm fairly sure WoW OpenGl is slower than D3d. For reference, my C2D 2.6, 4 GB, 8800GTS w/640MB pulls 60 FPS (vsync limit) with all settings maxed and 2X AA pretty much everywhere in the game under Vista and D3d. That same machine gets averages about 40 FPS outdoors under Linux/Wine and OpenGL. Overall though, the Wine/WoW experience is amazing and the FPS drop is easily acceptable for myself.

    For those of you with desktops, you'll see much improvement from even a sub-$100 Nvidia card like an 8600gt or 7600GT AGP (if you can still find them).

    Re: Howto: WOW with Wine (help.ubuntu.com/community/WorldofWarcraft)

    I got it to start up. Finally finished the needed updates. When I go to enter the game from the character selection screen, the bar at the bottom of the screen fills up all of the way and then the game quits. Here is the code that I am getting when I run wine "c:\program files\world of warcraft\wow.exe" -d3d from the terminal.

    Any help here will be greatly appreciated. I see that f33nom is getting a very similar section of code and was wondering if he had figured out how to fix it. Thanks in advance.
