    Re: Double your framerate in WoW under Wine

    Had about constantly lower than 20fps earlier today. Surfed in here and found this thread
    Tweak #1 was already done(found it in another thread)

    At first i couldnt get tweak #2 working, nothing happend. Then i tried with sudo(even though i really dont feel safe runing wow as root) i was finding myself with a black screen. This got me a little bit worried, but i thought it would happend something in a minute or two. When nothing happend i tried ctrl+alt+f*, nothing happend. I slammed my fingers at ctrl+alt+backspace, again nothing happened.

    I always play wow in windowed so i thought maybe i should deactivate that option. No difference though

    i'll give you some info and configs, i hope you'll get that "ohh theres your problem"-thingy, cuz im getting tired of this.


    At first the script:
    HTML Code:
    #!/bin/sh
     
     X :3 -ac &   # Launches a new X session on display 3 
     cd "/media/hdb5/World\ of\ Warcraft/"   # Goto WoW dir 
     sleep 2   # Forces the system to have a break for 2 seconds 
     DISPLAY=:3 /usr/X11R6/bin/wine WoW.exe -opengl   # Launches WoW
    Then maybe you'll want a look at my wtf.config

    as what i can see i shouldnt have these problems
    a lot of people are posting error messages, where do you find these? for me wow is working then suddently the computer freezes and hardboot is the only solution.(this can happen after a couple of minutes up to an hour or so) Thought this "another server"-thingy atleast would solve the problem with whole computer freeze, if only wow would freeze i atleast could kill it and start it up again.

    Greatfull for all help possible

    Re: Double your framerate in WoW under Wine

    off topic - I am getting about 70-80 fps in WoW under Ubuntu but it still seems so choppy, lots of tearing (even with vsync on)...and gives me a headache.

    In windows it runs very smoothly. Am i not doing something right?

    I had the same problem. Turned off full screen glow effect and the tearing went away. I dont miss the glowing either

    Re: Double your framerate in WoW under Wine

    My minimap is still not working. From what I've seen this is a problem with an older version of Wine, but I have it updated to the latest version and it still will not show while indoors or in cities.

    I'm not sure if the second tweak is working. I run the command ~,/launch.sh or whatever it was and I get invalid command.

    Re: Double your framerate in WoW under Wine

    After the recently update to 2.10, while quitting wow I always get a crash.
    The screen gets a freeze. The followings are displayed in console:
    Any idea?
    fixme:reg:GetNativeSystemInfo (0x37400f40) using GetSystemInfo()
    fixme: process:IsWow64Process (0xffffffff 0x7bbfe4b4) stub!
    fixme:wininet:InternetSetOptionW Option INTERNET_OPTION_CONTEXT_VALUE; STUB

    everyone's is having this issue:
    http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=451505

    this probably won't be fixed for a couple wine releases or until the next wow patch.
    until then, try my kill script for WoW: http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php...4&postcount=42

    also, don't post the same thing in more than one thread.
