Linux - Steam For Windows - Wine 1.9.21 - Bejeweled 3

[Inukaze]

Hi there, first read and understand the message i am asking for steam from windows, running via wine, not for steam for linux native client.

i open the client for windows, after almost 2 months. the thing is i ever use PlayOnLinux + Wine 1.9.21 + Steam For Windows .

i use this version because a lot of games for windows, detect perfectly the hardware acceleration. [Proton can't detect 3D Hardware acceleration, and is extremely slowpoke on my pc, because of that i pass years request for the linux native client, for use a custom version of wine, for each title from the linux native client of steam. i know steam is a good project, but just works fine for pc from 2012. and the mine is from 2005]

For play various titles like :
Bejeweled 3
Street Racing Syndicate (Needs MPEG-1 Solution for Play)


Well the thing is, with the lastest update. i can't start games before the upgrade works fine. for example when i try to Play "Bejeweled 3" i recieve the follow error message :

Have you tried disabling the Steam Overlay?

[Inukaze]

Yes i try to disabling it, but its the same, i disable in "winecfg", including moving the file out the folder of steam, and ever give me the same error.

Proton can absolutely detect 3D acceleration. What are you talking about?

https://www.nvidia.com/download/driverResults.aspx/123709/en-us

Nvidia linux drivers

6800 is still on the support matrix

[Inukaze]

Proton on my pc 3.7-8 can't detect 3D hardware acceleration with my games ¬¬ i know i am talking because if i ran the games with wine 1.9.21 the games detect 3D Hardware acceleration perfectly.

i am use nvidia linux driver too

my current gpu is Nvidia GT 620 (rev a1) [2GB]

[Satoru]

This again makes literally zero sense

Playonlinux is just a front end for wine

Proton is basically wine

You’re also running 2 major revisions behind in Wine as the latest stable is 4.0 and 1.9.21 was released in 2015

There’s something up with your system if you can’t run the latest wine version on a modern video card to run a DX9 game

[Inukaze]

I know proton is basically wine modified by valve, adding things like dxvk, etc . . .

i know which is the lastest wine stable. yes i am using PlayOnLinux for download old versions of Wine, because for each game, some versions of wine, works better than anothers, is just game depend.

i can run wine 4.0, i had installed Wine 4.2 like wine of system. but for example with bejeweled 3. wine from 2.0 can't detect hardware acceleration but with wine 1.9.21 can detectly perfectly.

and this happend with a lot of games. and this defect proton had too because came from wine source code.

anothers game i use another version of wine, becuase of this defect i had years request on the forum to add custom version of wine, for each game, because for example

Ragnarok Online works better with wine 1.4-rc3
Street Racing Syndicate works better with wine 1.2
Metal Gear Solid 2 Substance works better with wine 1.3.30
Resident Evil 4 works better with wine 1.3.8
Silent Hill 3 works better with wine 1.8.6
Commandos 1/2/3 works better with wine 1.6.2
Resident Evil 3: Nemesis works better with wine 1.5.4
Microsoft Pandora's Box works better with wine 1.6.2
紅蓮華 -ぐれんか- works better with wine 2.21-staging
Need For Speed (5) - Porsche 2000 / Unleashed works better with wine 1.3.23
Dragon Age II works better with wine 1.8.6
etc . . .

My test the games works with wine and not with proton is very long.

Old messages of forums from 2012 don't exist anymore

i found another possible solution instead use Wine 1.9.21.

Well based on the wrappers i know. i first try downloading the follow things

From -> https://fdossena.com/?p=wined3d/index.frag -> Last Windows 7 compatible version
Version 7.8 staging For Windows Vista/7/8/10/11 -> https://downloads.fdossena.com/geth.php?r=wined3d-recommended7

Extract files and i just need the files : dxgi.dll , ddraw.dll & d3d9.dll

This method works with Proton-8.0 & Bejeweled 3. On my GPU "MSI Nvidia GT620 (2GB)" have better graphics effects

From -> https://www.nongnu.org/wined3d -> https://mirrors.sarata.com/non-gnu/wined3d/1.1.38/wined3d.exe
Specific the old version 1.1.38 because this have the three files i am looking for.

dxgi.dll , d3d9.dll , ddraw.dll


Try with this another files if the first are not working like expect XD.

For me its more efficient just download exe and open with peazip, instead download iso, and mount/open the iso and then open the exe with peazip or another tool.


By this way is a valid method to enable "3D Acceleration" on certain games.


On my GPU "MSI Nvidia GT620 (2GB)" have more simple graphics effects


In last instance for Bejeweled 3. apart of that files you can try with the follow files too :
https://github.com/cheez3d/popcap-patches/blob/master/popcap-games/bejeweled-3/compat.cfg

https://github.com/cheez3d/popcap-patches/tree/master/popcap-games/bejeweled-3/steam/1.1.12.4196
-> https://github.com/cheez3d/popcap-patches/blob/master/popcap-games/bejeweled-3/steam/1.1.12.4196/Bejeweled3-nosig%2Bvmem%2Bvcard.exe

-> https://github.com/cheez3d/popcap-patches/blob/master/popcap-games/bejeweled-3/steam/1.1.12.4196/Bejeweled3-nosig%2Bvmem.exe

Just rename the original Bejeweled3.exe to Bejeweled3.exe.original or something, after rename some of that file like Bejewele3.exe first try without replace "combat.cfg" try with each combination possible.
