Hi all,

¿Has anyone been able to run this game?

When I run it, a black screen appears, and after a few seconds, goes to the desktop
I use the latest version of playonlinux, wine 1.7.4 and open source driver radeon, although
the proprietary driver (fglrx) it is the same.


Executing it with the debug option, the following appears:

Thanks to all and sorry for my english, it is not my native language.

Regards.

Since you are doing a manual installation, can you post more info on what libraries you installed?
I see a d3dx8 error, which means its Direct X 8.

What video chip are you using? Intel, Nvidia or AMD? Sorry, just noticed you were using AMD...

There is nothing on WineHQs so this is going to be difficult.
Since Shadow of Destiny is a Win 98 game, maybe you should set the Windows version to windows 98?
Do you think it will run in DOS?

If you are going to post debug, only post PlayOnLinux output. That is the Wine debug output. Please read the stickies at the top of the forums as well, so that you can give us some better information. This is REQUIRED reading, so please do so, and post the needed information.

Yes. With directx9 or d3dx9 runtime installed its the same.

My Linux distro is Ubuntu 13.04

Amd 64 bits 3000+

and Radeon hd4760 with radeon Gallium3d drivers

In Windows 98/ME/2000 it is the same.

Do you think it will run in DOS?

No. Its a windows game.

In case you want to try, the demo is here:

Thank you for answering.

Im sorry, but that is what appears in Playonlinux debug output window.

Thats a very small part of the PlayOnLinux debug output. This is also an inappropriate forum to post in. This is not where it should be. Moving this to the PlayOnLinux forum.

Thanks, I'll download the demo and try it myself.

The demo is named Shadow of Memories...
Is this the same game?

Yes. Shadow of memories is EU and, I think, Japan version and Shadow of Destiny is US version:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shadow_of_Memories

Did you ever get Shadow of Destiny running?

Yes, when I had windows 2000 on another computer. In ubuntu, never. Have you got it working?

I downloaded it, but didn't actually try it yet.

Installing right now. I'm noticing a lot of wma files.
This is Windows Media Audio
Chances are the virtual drive will need Windows Media Player 9 installed and codecs.

I'm having lots of problems running the demo too.
I have tried Wine 1.4.1x 1.6x 1.7.4, 1.2.3 and others

Here are the Libraries I installed:
corefonts
dxfullsetup
IE8
wmp9
wmpcodecs
msvc90
dotnet20
dotnet30

As you can see, there are directX 8 error with Vertex Shader
Obviously there is no directX 8 package to install, but I have messed with older versions of Wine where you can disable vertex shader, but newer versions of Wine automatically do it.
I have messed with PlayOnLinux display options too, but I always get these same errors.

Basically the game crashes at the first screen.
Probably a Windows Media video not running.
I've looked through the game folders and can't find any config files or obvious video files.
I'll try installing the WM codecs again

hi,

Thanks for your help booman,
I followed your advice and I installed wmp9 and wmpcodecs but nothing has changed.
I've search the videos folder and I have located the video that appears on the game's intro.
It's open_e.mpg, and is located in the following path:
Program Files/Konami/Shadow Of Memories Demo/works/conv/video

When i run with the file command, it says:

----

open_e.mpg: MPEG sequence, v1, system multiplex

----

I can see it with mplayer, in linux. Command line says:

However, with wmplayer.exe from inside playonlinux preffix I can not see it, a window appears when I try to run it, and says:

Windows media player cannot play the file. The file is either corrupt or the Player
does not support the format you are trying to player

I tried running the .wma audio files and I can hear them without any problem.
maybe a multimedia codecs problem?
How I can update wmplayer codecs?

Sorry, for my bad english and thanks again.

Edité par xyzxyz

Ok, so its looking like the old .wma files are having a problem loading when the game launches.
I've seen this before with a game called Divinity 2 and never got it to work.
I have installed VLC in a virtual drive and it will play the videos, but for some reason the game launcher is programmed to use Windows Media Player only.

Hi booman,

This afternoon I ran the demo on a pc with windows xp
and I checked that on linux fails to run before intro video.
I know this, because before open_e.mpg file is there other small intro with konami logo

I ran process monitor (other software like filemon.exe) in windows
and I have found that stops running in linux in file shader_shavol.vsh, in the following path:
--
Program Files/Konami/Shadow Of Memories Demo/prefix/engine
---
because shadow.exe never write a configuration file called shadow.cfg , just after check these *.vsh files.
File shader_shavol.vsh, i think is assembly language
In that file, in line 22 can be read:
--
; vertex shader version 1.1
vs.1.1
---
I tried to change the version number to 2.0 and ValidateVertexShader error no longer appears in playonlinux debug, but the game still does not work (black screen).

Is there any way to tell wine to use only shader version 1.1?

Perhaps, this situation may be the same in Divine divinity 2 . Your versión Is Steam Direct Cut?

Edité par xyzxyz

So you think the shader is causing errors?
How did you change version number to 2.0?

I have a feeling older versions of Wine support older shader versions.
We'll have to do some research to find which versions of Wine are limited to which shader versions.
Not to mention even video chipsets are limited to certain shader versions too.
So there is a chance it might not be Wine, but I'm guessing it is.

I've run a lot of old games on my GeForce 550 Ti... I'm currently running Morrowind and it runs great. I'm sure its shader 1.0 or earlier.

Yes I have Steam Directors Cut for Divinity 2. If its a shader issue too, maybe getting Shadow of Memories running will help me troubleshoot Divinity 2

Hi booman, and thanks for your help.

A week ago I was using debug functions of wine, to try to diagnose this problem.
Tried "Warn+all" and other debug functions, and found that game execution get stuck when creating the first
of the four shaders that opens before starting the game.
It said something like "could not open (or write) the shaders file", I do not remember it well.
So, yes, the problem is possibly in shaders.
As it's too big for my knowledge, when I have time for it, I will open a game page in winehq.org and report this error and that wine developers see if something can be done to solve it.

Yeah me too...
All I can think of is trying different versions of Wine.
That takes a lot of time, but it might be the only way to run Shadow of Destiny.
Yes report the error and then we wait for someone else to try it.
