status on Linux and help if you can 7 years 7 months ago #73641

Hi all.

I'm happy to report that force feedback is finally working with my wheel on Linux! This has got me more pumped than ever to work out the two (one critical) nagging issues that stop the game from working fully.

1. AVI export of the replays crashes and does not export the AVI (not critical).

2. Multiplayer (joining or creating game) crashes the game. This is the real issue for me because I'd like to jump on some races and start getting beat by all you experienced guys. If anyone who is more technically inclined could take a look at this backtrace I would appreciate it.

System information:
    Wine build: wine-2.5-129-g9694aeb
    Platform: i386
    Version: Windows XP
    Host system: Linux
    Host version: 4.7.0-KLGDT-00001-ge396ed7

For anyone wondering, the game does work fully in wine other than these two issues. There is no entry on the appdb.winehq.org site. For anyone dealing with compatibility issues on the new Windows versions, I would recommend *nixing up!

The previous games in the series (DTR, DTRSC, Leadfoot) work but not always with Direct3D and aren't very stable.

Thanks,
John

I'll dual boot a linux distro on a junk computer I have lying around and see what I can come up with.
Exporting to AVI takes a long time, you're better off recording the game directly through the replay with a program like dxtory or fraps. It saves time, and allows more control of the video.
Is there a file called error.log in your documents folder? I'm not sure what the Linux equivalent is, but the path on Windows is C:\Users\<user>\Documents\error.log. If you can find the file, it will give a better look into what went wrong. Although it seems like a WINE problem rather than a DTR2 problem, but worth a look nonetheless.
You could try updating the network driver too.

error.log
** START DUMP: Sun Apr 09 11:19:08 2017

** Error Information
etrace: BeginScene failed:

The method call is invalid. For example, a method's
parameter may have an invalid value.

There is also an "errorlog.txt" but I haven't posted it because it's essentially the same as that backtrace. I can provide that if desired. You're probably right in that it is a wine problem. Sometimes with wine you have to install native Windows libraries to make things work, but I'm not sure if that is the case here. I will look into the other solutions you mentioned for recording the replays - I was just watching a race on YouTube the other day scratching my head about how it was done.

Try installing directx if you're able to. Although since you can race offline and not online I doubt that's a problem, but just to take out any possibilities.

I tried using "winetricks directx9" in a fresh wine prefix and ran the game using that, but it didn't solve the issue. I will keep looking into it and maybe submit a wine bug report. Thanks.
