Hey, /jp/

Is there any way to get nixx's version of Perfect Cherry Blossom and Imperishable Night? The torrents are completely dead (even if PCB has around 5 seeds, I've been at it for 2 days and it hasn't connected).

I found their Scarlet Devil version in furk. http://www.furk.net/nixx_Touhou_06_-_Embodiment_of_Scarlet_Devil.rar.html

Oh, also, is there any place where I can get playforlinux versions of the rest?

Ah, the reason why I need playforlinux versions is because the directx in wine 1.2+ is broken (doesn't show the text), but playforlinux lets me use past versions.

Not necessary. Download a vanilla one, and patches, and then English patch if desired. And as for Wine, read this.

>And as for Wine, read this.
yeah... wish it worked that way still. I used to play like that.

But wine 1.2+ has issues with directx, and doesn't show any text (not even in Embodiment of the Scarlet Devil). By the way, wine's currently at 1.3.11.

So I need to use a version of wine lower that 1.2 if I want the dialogs. But I don't want to downgrade.

So playonlinux is a great option, because I can use any old version of wine to run my games, without having to change the wine version on my system.

>>6834266
I can't test that at the moment. My graphics card is broken. But, I don't recall this happening in Wine 1.2. I remember 10-12 not having text in some places, but that's only without d3dx9_36.dll. And the game never used to run without it, until Wine 1.1.42.

Any other Linux users able to confirm the issue?

Also, do you need an updated version of Wine? Might be best to stick with an older version in the meantime.

I use MSOffice 2007 for work. It needs wine 1.2+ to run.

Here's a comparison between wine 1.2 (standard on Ubuntu Lucid), 1.3.11 (latest beta) and 1.1.0 (with playonlinux).

Fucking sucks how winehq released "full support for directx 9" in the official 1.2 when there obviously isn't full support for directx 9. It was working fine before.

When abouts did this issue start? Because I definitely played EoSD and other after Wine 1.1.36, when the black text backgrounds stopped happening, the ones visible in the 1.1.0 screenshot. It may actually be related to your graphics card, scroll down in this.

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=24450

In all honesty, it may be an idea to look at just running Windows, or at least putting Office 2007 in a virtual machine.

Tested with 1.1.36 on playonlinux. Both with d3dx9_36.dll native and builtin.

It already has the issue.

My card is a simple integrated g33. Specifically,
>Your video card : Mesa DRI Intel(R) G33 GEM 20091221 2009Q4 x86/MMX/SSE2
But it's not like it was an ATi or anything. There shouldn't be an issue with my card, as far as I know...

Unfortunately I'd say that's the "problem". Mine was an NVIDIA GeForce 8600M GS, proprietary drivers, and the text rendered fine.

So, anyway. I don't have the PoL script, nor any better ideas on what to do. Sorry.

Don't have the bug numbers on hand (will look them up later), but what's actually needed here is the Wine DIB engine patch.

I have 1.2 compiled with DIB engine and a "colormask fix" patch, and it works perfectly for most games (there is no black background around the text, either - it's transparent, as it's supposed to be).

By looking on the internet, there's an issue with the patch. I tried patching a new copy and, at the top of the fucking patch list, there's an error,
>patching file configure.ac
>Hunk #1 FAILED at 2755.
>1 out of 1 hunk FAILED -- saving rejects to file configure.ac.rej
and just like I found in http://paradox22.wordpress.com/2010/02/12/moulagain-on-wine/, that appears to be the issue.

So I'm currently trying to fix the fucking patch. Here's my configure.ac.rej:

I was using the latest patch, for 1.3.7. But I was using the tar for 1.3.9.

>>6834505 here. You guys are making it sound a bit harder than it is.

First, there's no need to install, just build the thing and leave it there (probably better that way, in fact, to not interfere with the installed version). To launch games, do something like this:

#!/bin/sh
# Have a separate .wine directory
export WINEPREFIX="/home/cirno/.wine-dib"
WINEDIB=ON ~/src/wine-git/wine $*

Second, the links:

http://wiki.winehq.org/DIBEngine (instructions and discussion)
http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=421 (DIB patch - apply patches in the order specified in the "series" file - if there are any rejects, reverse with -R and check that you have the right version)
http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15146 (colormask fix - may or may not be necessary anymore)

Lastly, there ought to be binary packages floating around, like:
https://launchpad.net/~jriwanek/+archive/ppa
https://launchpad.net/~gabriel-thornblad/+archive/ppa

I might build one myself, if I get motivated enough to figure it out...

Well, I'll be damned. Whatever they did, wine 1.3.10 on lucid from ubuntu-wine PPA, Geforce 7300GT - works with no issues.

OP here.
After doing everything I could come up with and compiling for a second time, I still have the
>err:driver:Load_Dib_Driver Couldn't load DIB Engine
error.

After what >>6835008 said, I tried installing wine1.2_1.1.43-0ubuntu1~lucidppa3+winehacks1.1_i386.deb, from https://launchpad.net/~jriwanek/+archive/ppa and modifying the regedit like the ppa says.
And I still got the
>>err:driver:Load_Dib_Driver Couldn't load DIB Engine
error.

If I tried running it WITHOUT WINEDIB=ON, I got the error
>fixme:d3d8:IDirect3DDevice8Impl_ResourceManagerDiscardBytes Byte count ignored.

And the text, of course, is still nowhere to be found.

If >>6835008 ends up releasing a binary, I'll be happy, but for now I think I'll modify his advice a little and, instead of using playonlinux to run games I'm lacking the script of, I'll just compile wine 1.1.0 and run touhou without installing it.

I love Linux and I've been at it for almost 10 years, but it's times like this (when I've tried fucking everything possible and it's still useless, and now I'm without a clue on what to do next after hours of work) that I understand why it's not popular. I mean, come the fuck on, I only wanna shoot some lolis, I shouldn't have to... bah.

Looking at the comments #421, it's almost certainly because you forgot to run autoconf right after patching.

Btw, did you try the newer wine from ppa:ubuntu-wine (as per the reports above)?

(By the way, to be fair, when you think about the fact that you have a complex app, written *and* compiled for an entirely different platform (the details of which aren't even documented!), running with no modifications... it's really quite a remarkable achievement.)

Yes, but if a perfectly good fix has been made for a known issue, why the hell hasn't it been applied to the main trunk and made easily available?

mplayer has the same issue with what utoi added (bettes ass support, ordered chapters, etc), but at least utoi has released a git trunk with its additions and a script that autoconfigures his his mplayer with all the dependencies (because the main mplayer community can't fucking do it nor let anyone else do it officially).

And utoi's mplayer compiles, with full ffmpeg, livavcodec, lame, x264 and whatnot, in about 15 minutes.

Here, we have a fix that needs a ton of work to be implemented, and almost an hour and a half to be compiled. And again out of sheer stupidity, the main mplayer community hasn't applied it to its main trunk. WHY?!

I'll try the autoconfigure thing, though. What can I lose, besides another hour and a half in my day off?

There's a huge amount of discussion around it linked on the wiki page (which I haven't actually followed, admittedly).

I'm not at all involved with wine, so I don't know the details, but this is a very shallow way of looking at the issue. Just because something "works" doesn't mean it is well-written or easy to maintain. Fixing one thing may well end up fundamentally breaking another, now or in the near future.

In short, software development simply does not work this way.

You are quite welcome to express your opinion on wine-devel, or even fork the whole project, however.

compiled with autoconfig. Doesn't give me the "err:driver:Load_Dib_Driver Couldn't load DIB Engine" error anymore, but it still isn't working.

So, I give up. Fuck everything. I mad, I tired, I spent most of my day overexerting in an exercise that amounted to nothing. Off to watch chink cartoons, thanks for the help, /jp/. Let me know if you ever release a deb or autoinstall script for wine with DIB working, because I'm not about to try again.

How convenient, I was having some issues myself.

Here's my problem: I'm running Wine1.3 in Ubuntu Maverick, and all the games start up just fine. However, the only one I can play is SA, because all the other ones seem to think my keyboard is constantly pressing the down arrow, making it impossible to navigate the main menus. As far as I know, I've got all DirectX shit, etc installed that I need. SA's controls work perfectly, and dialogue shows up, although it's a little weird looking, but readable. It's really frustrating because everything else works fine, it just won't stop pressing down.

It works now, and it was easy as fuck to do it.

I ended up erasing the wine I had compiled, and installing 1.3.11 from ppa:ubuntu-wine/ppa.

I then installed directx9 from winetricks.

I then started the game with
>WINEDIB=ON wine th06e.exe

and now it works. So in the end, all I had to do was to install directx9 from winetricks. Thanks, >>6837338
