D3D8 games reported to work mega-"issue"

WinterSnowfall commented 1 year ago

Not a bug - but since you can't PR against Wikis on GitHub, and just so that I don't forget about anything, I'm opening this "issue" to keep track of games which are known to work but are not yet mentioned in the Wiki.

I'll scratch these off whenever they're added, but for now I've tested/played:

[x] Rise of Nations
[x] Delta Force - Black Hawk Down
[x] Enclave
[x] Mobile Forces
[x] Judge Dredd - Dredd vs Death
[x] Red Faction II
[x] Star Trek - Armada II
[x] Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3

None of the above show any issues as of 0.10 at least.

AlpyneDreams commented 1 year ago

Added all of these to the wiki. Thank you for testing 'em!

WinterSnowfall commented 1 year ago

@AlpyneDreams I've gone through all the d3d8 games I currently own and can confirm a few more working titles:

[x] Broken Sword 3: The Sleeping Dragon
[x] Freedom Force
[x] Hidden And Dangerous 2
[x] KnightShift (aka Polanie 2)
[x] RC Cars
[x] Sam And Max - Beyond Time And Space
[x] Sherlock Holmes - Secret of the Silver Earring
[x] Still Life
[x] Star Wars: Starfighter
[x] The Guild (aka Europa 1400)
[x] Thief - Deadly Shadows (apparently an UE2 game)
[x] Uru - Complete Chronicles

There are also a bunch of new bugs I will raise once I collect all the traces and maybe figure some stuff out about what is causing them.

If Sam & Max: Beyond Time And Space works, does that mean that Sam & Max Save the World works too?

AlpyneDreams commented 1 year ago

Thief Deadly Shadows uses the same everything as Deus Ex 2 so I'm not surprised.

If Sam & Max: Beyond Time And Space works, does that mean that Sam & Max Save the World works too?

I believe the original version of it should, but at some point it got updated to d3d9, while Sam & Max: Beyond Time And Space remained on d3d8. At least on GOG. So couldn't really confirm it.

Hmm interesting. They re-released them in d3d11 recently. I used to have the original version somewhere.

I have added all these to the wiki. I'll leave this issue open so people can easily report working games :)

@AlpyneDreams Due to @Blisto91's boundless generosity, I've tested a new batch of d3d8 titles I had yet to purchase, but now own and have added to my grand d3d8 games Wine prefix (it's sitting at ~85 d3d8 titles atm). Here are some more confirmed to work without any issues on Linux:

[x] 18 Wheels of Steel: Across America
[x] 18 Wheels of Steel: Hard Truck
[x] Another World (15th Anniversary Edition)
[x] Chaser
[x] Conflict: Desert Storm
[x] Freedom Fighters
[x] Guilty Gear Isuka
[x] Guilty Gear X2 Reload
[x] I.G.I. 2: Covert Strike
[x] Lords of the Realm III
[x] MegaRace 3
[x] Moto Racer 3
[x] No One Lives Forever 2: A Spy in H.A.R.M.'s Way (tested using the v1.2 demo)
[x] Rhiannon - Curse of the Four Branches
[x] Silent Hill 4: The Room
[x] Ys VI - The Ark of Napishtim

Had a quick run with the d3d8 title:

Final Fantasy XI Online

Things seem to work as far as I tested, though performance-wise things seemed similar to built-in (only issue I noticed, was the mouse cursor kind of glitching in and out of existence a bit, but not sure if the HUD could have caused that?).

Thank you for working on this interesting project!

WinterSnowfall commented 1 year ago

I'll mention this separately, because it's a special case.

Curse: The Eye of Isis

Works fine on current master (f4988e7) - however crashes when starting a new game if reffing here, similarly to GTA Vice City:

        // FIXME: Doing this crashes a GTA Vice City trace
        // and possibly other things too. Investigate.
        //m_renderTarget = ref(surf);

Since there are other games that apparently depend on this being in place, the situation is rather problematic.

P.S.: Here's a trace of the game, should it ever prove useful: Curse.trace.tar.xz

So in Duke Nukem: Manhattan Project, after compiling master d8vk, double jump doesn't work anymore.

EDIT: Solution is to limit fps, i used DXVK_FRAME_RATE=60

Just FYI, the game also has a builtin refresh rate limiter you can enable in its launcher, if you go to "Advanced".

Edit: Huh, that doesn't always limit the refresh rate properly... sigh. Well, whatever works :).

Michal-Szczepaniak commented 1 year ago

lol there's no advanced settings xd

WinterSnowfall commented 1 year ago

... apparently the Steam version doesn't have the classic launcher. Nevermind then :).

Michal-Szczepaniak commented 1 year ago

ok i'm back after extensive testing and the issue is real. I've tried limiting fps in game and via the DXVK_FRAME_RATE while both help, they don't eliminate the issue. Sometimes key is not registered at all and i can hold it for like 3 seconds before it gets registered. Issue is not present on wined3d or opengl

WinterSnowfall commented 1 year ago

@Michal-Szczepaniak Please open a separate issue for it and let's discuss it there.

Michal-Szczepaniak commented 1 year ago

Oki on it

AlpyneDreams commented 1 year ago

Curse: The Eye of Isis

Reported to work now.

AlpyneDreams commented 1 year ago

Added all the new ones including Curse and Final Fantasy XI

WinterSnowfall commented 1 year ago

@AlpyneDreams The following titles can be added to the "Working on Linux, but with notable bugs" section, since they work fine except for the problems mentioned below:

[x] Cossacks II: Battle For Europe (hidden mouse on main menu and crash on resolution change)
[ ] Hitman 2: Silent Assassin (crash on new game after changing graphics options)
[ ] Incoming Forces (broken geometry during some cutscenes, but seems to be game-specific)
[ ] Soldiers: Heroes of World War II (videos flickering on playback)
[ ] Star Wars: Republic Commando (crashes with Squad Shadows enabled)

WinterSnowfall commented 1 year ago

I've also tested a couple of additional titles and confirmed they are working without issues:

[x] Desert Thunder
[x] Blitzkrieg Anthology

jr1991-g commented 1 year ago

I've tested the only game I'm interested and it works better than Windows, with kitserver mods enabled. No graphical glitches and no crashes so far. Tested on pure wine, 32 and 64 prefixes.
