Hi all,
Here is the best I could do to get Beyond Good and Evil working.
First (fixed) problem is to make sure CPU runs at constant speed.
The main remaining problem is sound, without native DirectSound I get looping sounds, and with native dsound, video and audio get out of sync, sound dialogs are cropped,... WineHQ bug #13046
I'm running out of ideas to fix this perfectly, I could use some help... :sad:
