Star Wars: The Old Republic Manual Test

[booman]

It might be wininet?

 

[Dominic Doyle]

Ok, lets start over from the beginning since I have not tested Star Wars: The Old Republic, we'll have to do the trial-n-error together. Most of the WineHQ test submissions show silver or garbage... thats not good!

I'm reading a few sources that have some good tips:
SWTOR forum
WineHQ
Since its Free-to-Play, I can also download and test myself, then make a guide for it

Here are some Quick steps for preparing:

Linux 32-bit libraries (if you have a 64-bit Operating System):
Install Multiarch 32-bit libraries (needed for most games)

Copy CD data or download full client:
Copy data from CD's to Folder on Desktop

Wine Versions:
Launch PlayOnLinux
Click Tools menu
Click Wine Version Manager
Select: Wine 1.5.1-old_republic
Click Left arrow to install
Select: Wine 1.6-rc4
Click Left arrow to install
Select: Wine 1.5.25
Click Left arrow to install
Select: Wine 1.4.1
Click Left arrow to install

Close Wine Manager

PlayOnLinux Manual Installation:
Click Install
Click "Install a non-listed program"

Select "Install in a new virtual drive"

Virtual Drive name: swtor

Select all three options:
Use another Version of Wine
Configure Wine
Install some Libraries

Select Wine 1.5.1-Old-Republic

Wine Configuration
Windows Version: Windows 7
Display Tab
Check all, set virtual desktop to 1024x768
Click OK

Install libraries:
vcrun2008
d3dx9
msls31
internet explorer 8 (also installs service pack 3)

Installing SWTOR:
Click Browse
Search for a setup.exe from the Disk you copied or an install.exe from the downloaded version.
Note: This is tricky because sometimes the download is a client that download the game.
Using the copied CD files might be better in the long run, but we won't know until we try both.
Click Open

SWTOR Installer:
Some kind of installer will launch in the virtual desktop (blue background)
Follow the installation steps
Keep most default settings
Allow it to install any .NET or DirectX libraries its-self
Don't launch or create shortcuts at the end
Finish installer

POL shortcut:
PlayOnLinux will search for exe files in the virtual drive
Note: This is tricky too, because sometimes there are multiple exe's like launcher.exe, swtor.exe, etc. You may have to select each one and try them all until you find the one that works.
Name your shortcuts
Select "No I don't want to make another shortcut"

PlayOnLinux Configure:
in PlayOnLinux, click Configure
Display Tab
Direct Draw Renderer: opengl
Video memory size: the size of memory on your video card
Offscreen Rendering Mode: fbo

Note: Sometimes these don't do anything, other times it makes all the difference in launching a game and its performance. Many times I'll have to turn these off or on to get a game to work.

Reboot Windows:
Wine Tab
Click "Windows Reboot"

Close Configure

Select one of your shortcuts and click Run. If it doesn't launch or start to update properly, try the other shortcuts and click Run.

If SWTOR still refuses to launch, select the shortcut and click Debug on the right. This will print out the launching/terminal information so we can see what is going on in the backend.
It can give us a clue of what might be wrong.

I just recently installed mint 17 and playonlinux but for the life of me I can not get swtor to work but guild wars no problem it's pissing me off ... royally I have a screen pic and a debug copy... it opens to let me put in e-mail and pw but it wont download the update ... see for yourself .... any help you may have I would be extremely appreciative and here is the debug.

[booman]

Try installing dxfullsetup
There are a lot of d3d "fixme's" and some x11drv
I wonder if it just needs more direct x libraries installed?
I'll look up that

[0704/201653:ERROR:tcp_client_socket_win.cc(118)] WSASocket failed: 10024

error.
But it does really seem like a driver or direct x problem because its acting like FBO is causing problems. You can also experiment with the Display settings under "offscreen rendering mode"
Try "backbuffer" or "pbuffer"

[Dominic Doyle]

Try installing dxfullsetup
There are a lot of d3d "fixme's" and some x11drv
I wonder if it just needs more direct x libraries installed?
I'll look up that error.
But it does really seem like a driver or direct x problem because its acting like FBO is causing problems. You can also experiment with the Display settings under "offscreen rendering mode"
Try "backbuffer" or "pbuffer"

Thanks for the help but it I still get the same error with initializing but here is the debug now....
ps I just ran the debug again b/c i forgot to copy and got a 208 network error...
and I'm noticing that the netflix on my tv is constantly buffering,.. i have verison dsl

Try installing dxfullsetup
There are a lot of d3d "fixme's" and some x11drv
I wonder if it just needs more direct x libraries installed?
I'll look up that error.
But it does really seem like a driver or direct x problem because its acting like FBO is causing problems. You can also experiment with the Display settings under "offscreen rendering mode"
Try "backbuffer" or "pbuffer"

Booman .... is there a torrent I can use to dl the entire game and run from there on PoL or wine?
Also I'm about to do a fresh install of mint just to start from scratch.. good idea or not?

 

[Dominic Doyle]

Ok, lets start over from the beginning since I have not tested Star Wars: The Old Republic, we'll have to do the trial-n-error together. Most of the WineHQ test submissions show silver or garbage... thats not good!

I'm reading a few sources that have some good tips:
SWTOR forum
WineHQ
Since its Free-to-Play, I can also download and test myself, then make a guide for it

Here are some Quick steps for preparing:

Linux 32-bit libraries (if you have a 64-bit Operating System):
Install Multiarch 32-bit libraries (needed for most games)

Copy CD data or download full client:
Copy data from CD's to Folder on Desktop

Wine Versions:
Launch PlayOnLinux
Click Tools menu
Click Wine Version Manager
Select: Wine 1.5.1-old_republic
Click Left arrow to install
Select: Wine 1.6-rc4
Click Left arrow to install
Select: Wine 1.5.25
Click Left arrow to install
Select: Wine 1.4.1
Click Left arrow to install

Close Wine Manager

PlayOnLinux Manual Installation:
Click Install
Click "Install a non-listed program"

Select "Install in a new virtual drive"

Virtual Drive name: swtor

Select all three options:
Use another Version of Wine
Configure Wine
Install some Libraries

Select Wine 1.5.1-Old-Republic

Wine Configuration
Windows Version: Windows 7
Display Tab
Check all, set virtual desktop to 1024x768
Click OK

Install libraries:
vcrun2008
d3dx9
msls31
internet explorer 8 (also installs service pack 3)

Installing SWTOR:
Click Browse
Search for a setup.exe from the Disk you copied or an install.exe from the downloaded version.
Note: This is tricky because sometimes the download is a client that download the game.
Using the copied CD files might be better in the long run, but we won't know until we try both.
Click Open

SWTOR Installer:
Some kind of installer will launch in the virtual desktop (blue background)
Follow the installation steps
Keep most default settings
Allow it to install any .NET or DirectX libraries its-self
Don't launch or create shortcuts at the end
Finish installer

POL shortcut:
PlayOnLinux will search for exe files in the virtual drive
Note: This is tricky too, because sometimes there are multiple exe's like launcher.exe, swtor.exe, etc. You may have to select each one and try them all until you find the one that works.
Name your shortcuts
Select "No I don't want to make another shortcut"

PlayOnLinux Configure:
in PlayOnLinux, click Configure
Display Tab
Direct Draw Renderer: opengl
Video memory size: the size of memory on your video card
Offscreen Rendering Mode: fbo

Note: Sometimes these don't do anything, other times it makes all the difference in launching a game and its performance. Many times I'll have to turn these off or on to get a game to work.

Reboot Windows:
Wine Tab
Click "Windows Reboot"

Close Configure

Select one of your shortcuts and click Run. If it doesn't launch or start to update properly, try the other shortcuts and click Run.

If SWTOR still refuses to launch, select the shortcut and click Debug on the right. This will print out the launching/terminal information so we can see what is going on in the backend.
It can give us a clue of what might be wrong.

Booman.. I need ur assistance once more ...I could not get past the launcher screen no matter what I did.. So what I did was download the whole game 24.? GB on my fathers laptop and copied the the swtor file to my portable hd with the hopes that maybe that if I do the download already I won't get the initializing error.. so my question is well actually a couple ... I did a fresh install of mint and wine and PoL b/c all the stuff that I did I didn't wont it to be screwed up..
my question is where would I put the swtor file I create a virtual drive and all and do I still do the install just as you say here? and where do I copy the Swtor download?
thanks for the help
Dominic

 

[booman]

Glad to see you are still working on this. I won't be testing Swotor because it will take way too long to download.
I just downloaded Swordsman (9 GB) and it took 4 hours. So imagine downloading Swotor?

Anyways, you may have to do some research, but some games files can be backed up and restored. Others can't.
For example: Steam has a "common" folder where are the game files reside. You can easily copy a game folder and paste it on other computers, then do the install again and the Steam client will "discover files" without having to download the entire game.

As for Swotor, I don't know if the downloader will recognize that the game files are already installed or if it used temporary files for the download.

I would hate to keep downloading 24 GB just to re-install a game again.

 

[Hermes]

On July 7th PoL in their news said that SWTOR runs now, so I thought I'd give it a go. I can get the game to run, however, I'm at a point now where while I'm in the game the GUI will randomly disappear while at the same time the video will freeze (the audio still runs after this happens). Everything else runs fine though (the map works ok and doesn't give me issues as it has for others). This is all the debug spits out when it happens:

Hundreds of this line:
fixme:win:GetWindowPlacement not supported on other process window 0x70034

followed by this at the very end:
fixme:dbghelp:elf_search_auxv can't find symbol in module

I have no idea why this is happening. I am going to try and install the suggested packs in this thread and see if it helps. Any and all suggestions on how to possibly fix this is greatly appreciated as I'd really love to play this game.

Cheers

 

[Hermes]

OK! I think i fixed the freezing problem! What I did was I changed the virtual desktop resolution to 1280x720(same as my actual monitor res) and I changed the ingame resolution to the same. Before my VD res was 1000x615 (as per a youtube suggestion), and my ingame was 800x600. So Im assuming the difference between the two was messing something up. I have a new problem now though. When I first boot the virtual desktop it covers the whole screen, I login and hit play, then wait the ~5 mins for the actual game to boot. Once the actual game boots up though the virtual desktop shifts > and down so my side bar and top bar is displayed. This then moves part of the game display off of the screen (see pic). How do I fix this now?? http://imgur.com/rnvioWx

On a side note, here is what I did to get the game running (im on Ubuntu 12.10, PoL 4.2.4):

-Install through PoL
-Setup to use a virtual desktop in wine settings on PoL
-Set virtual desktop to same res as in game res.

It was literally as easy as that. It runs flawlessly now aside from my little display problem mentioned above, which hopefully there is an easy fix for it!

 

[Hermes]

Alright, I jumped the gun, the game is still having the freezing problem. It was running well for a little while there too -_-. I fixed the virtual desktop problem though by not running it in virtual desktop (for whatever reason at first it wasnt booting the game unless in VD, now it does though lol)

 

[booman]

Is the freezing random or consistent? Like does it freeze when opening a menu, or doing a keyboard combination?

I see why the youtube video recommended 1000x615 resolution... because the screen gets cut off. Not sure why. I've never seen this problem before with the virtual desktop. It may be a limitation of your video card/chip or drivers.

Herme's can you post your debug and play until it crashes?

Before I get into it, let me first say Thank You booman. A couple months ago I was having crash problems with Fallout 3, and after days and days of trying to fix it and searching for solutions, I finally stumbled upon your thread on it here which fixed all my issues and allowed me to enjoy Fallout 3. So again, thanks a lot for that. As a linux gamer I really appreciate what you're doing here on this forum.

Anyhow, back on topic, the freezing is consistent. If I bring my cursor over certain objective points on the mini map, the big map you can bring up, or mission items displayed on the top right missions list display, the user interface will disappear and the video will freeze (there are pics of this in the winehq link below). This is the only time it happens. Everything else runs great actually, and I am playing the game, but I just have to avoid the mini map with my cursor.

There are more in depth details of the freeze issue at winehq (link below) that many, including myself, are experiencing. It has been present for almost 2 years and has not been able to be fixed yet by anyone on winehq.

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=32092

There is also a thread on the playonlinux forum with some other good people trying to help resolve the issue:
http://www.playonlinux.com/en/app-2135-Star_Wars_The_Old_Republic.html

Someone recently posted a solution that worked for them:

"I added comctl32, ddrawex, and gdiplus to the libraries in the Wine config and I no longer have any issues (no mini-map issues, freezes, etc). "

However this did not fix the problem for me. I have followed up on that post asking if he had made any other changes to the default settings. If I come upon changes that fix it for me I will be sure to post them here. Any further suggestions you might have are greatly appreciated. While I can play the game, it would be nice to be able to play it without this bug.

Cheers

Oh, I forgot to answer your last question. This is all the normal PoL debug gives me:

Hundreds of this line:
fixme:win:GetWindowPlacement not supported on other process window 0x70034

followed by this at the very end:
fixme:dbghelp:elf_search_auxv can't find symbol in module

There are more in depth details on some other types of debugs? in the winehq thread link I posted in my last post. I'd post you the info but honestly I am a total newb at all this and have no idea where I'd even start with that, and what info I need to give to you from there, lol.

 

[Hermes]

Someone recently posted a solution that worked for them:

"I added comctl32, ddrawex, and gdiplus to the libraries in the Wine config and I no longer have any issues (no mini-map issues, freezes, etc). "

This person actually did not fix it, and is still experiencing the bug as well, as he has said in a more recent post today. He also forgot to add that he added msls31 to the libraries in wine config as well.

 

[booman]

That win:GetWindowPlacement not supported errors seems to be related. Not like there is anything we can do about it.
But did you already try adding:

• comctl32
• ddrawex
• gdiplus

Like in that post?
I just wonder if there is some missing library? The debug would tell us though... so not sure where to go from here

If I bring my cursor over certain objective points on the mini map, the big map you can bring up, or mission items displayed on the top right missions list display, the user interface will disappear and the video will freeze (there are pics of this in the winehq link below). This is the only time it happens. Everything else runs great actually, and I am playing the game, but I just have to avoid the mini map with my cursor.

There are more in depth details of the freeze issue at winehq (link below) that many, including myself, are experiencing. It has been present for almost 2 years and has not been able to be fixed yet by anyone on winehq.

There is also a thread on the playonlinux forum with some other good people trying to help resolve the issue:
http://www.playonlinux.com/en/app-2135-Star_Wars_The_Old_Republic.html

Someone recently posted a solution that worked for them:

"I added comctl32, ddrawex, and gdiplus to the libraries in the Wine config and I no longer have any issues (no mini-map issues, freezes, etc). "

However this did not fix the problem for me. I have followed up on that post asking if he had made any other changes to the default settings. If I come upon changes that fix it for me I will be sure to post them here. Any further suggestions you might have are greatly appreciated. While I can play the game, it would be nice to be able to play it without this bug.

Cheers

Thanks for the encouragement! I love showing the world that most PC games actually DO run in Linux. So we don't need to be afraid of being stuck in Windows anymore.

That win:GetWindowPlacement not supported errors seems to be related. Not like there is anything we can do about it.
But did you already try adding:

• comctl32
• ddrawex
• gdiplus

Like in that post?
I just wonder if there is some missing library? The debug would tell us though... so not sure where to go from here

I've tried that as well as everything else that has been suggested in this thread. I as well have no idea what else to do now.

booman, on a side note, I just recently upgraded to ubuntu 14.04, and now I have an issue with crackling sound (which I didn't have at all on ubuntu 12.10). I've researched this for days, and have not been able to find any solution that fixes it. I even came upon a PoL forum thread where you stated that you have had the same issues in some games as well ( http://www.playonlinux.com/en/topic-11245-World_of_Warcraft_weird_sound.html ). I have tried the most recent suggested fix from that thread, found here http://wiki.winehq.org/WineAndPulseaudio , but that did not work for me either (Unless I did it wrong?).

Did that fix work for you, and if not, have you found a fix yet for this problem?

Yes, the crackling has to be Pulseaudio and Alsa. I've experienced this many times. Some games do it and others don't
Very frustrating.
There is a setting in the Pulseaudio config that should help

Try this:

1. Open /etc/pulse/daemon.conf
2. Update this line: default-fragment-size-msec = 10
3. To: default-fragment-size-msec = 5
4. Save and close
5. Then kill pulseaudio and it will start by itsself

That might help or might not. I'm getting quite tired of the crackling and gittery audio since Wine does not support Alsa
