WineX still has serious(read: it doesn't work) problems with dx9, pixel shaders are the main culprit, but Versions before work perfectly, it depends on what AH writes it with, hell, I'd be willing to port it for free if he'd let me

wine is not runing seiv "perfectly" for me

You're having the bitmap problem with the ships not showing? Which Version of wine with which distro are you using?

Yes the ships bmp ~1/2 the time won't show up until I watch the movement log.
SuSE personal 9.0
wine ver 20030813
thanks in advance

I had this problem initially, but I fixed it many, many months ago, can't remember how though, i'll look into, see what I can find.

what you do not document

Man when you recompile your toast !

Ps... I started on the AIX SEIV project at work in my spare time....

I do know I can load it up there but I do think that will be about it...

Anyone know of anything in aix that can emulate windows ????

Well, I recompiled wine, reinstalled se4, gonna take a good look at fixing it again over the weekend. What did you recompile? Thnk that's bad? At least you're on Suse, you get YaST, I'm on gentoo, if something goes seriously wrong it takes about 3 days to get my desktop back.

HA HA HA HA HA i'm a moron. LOL, I found out why Se4 was running perfectly before, can't believe I didn't even realize what I was doing, I was running it under winex, not wine. All the tweaking I did I could not get it to work under wine, so I finally though about how I was running it, and realized that it was winex, so I reinstalled winex, and bam, straight out of the box it ran flawlessly.
