How do I turn on effects like post-processing, bloom etc? Is this possible currently?
Some effects are disabled by cryptic when it sees wine, mainly to ensure compatibility and performance. They have admitted this. There were some very bad performance problems that required these to be killed off in order for the game to be playable on anything older than godlike graphics card setups. I was lucky that my GF-260 was sufficient that I didn't need to disable them, but when cryptic mandated it via their code, I realized that I should have anyway. It was a nice performance boost.
Now, other settings are just not supported by wine at all yet. As I have fallen a wee bit behind on the latest in vanilla wine development statuses, I don't know if its just an old version that 9.2.1 is based on, or if it is still unsupported as of yet. I know that 10.0 is using a wine 1.3 branch, not sure offhand which rev. I would hope 1.3.9 or later, but I am not certain offhand. Most of the unsupported effects are a wine thing, as I believe it was only a small number that cryptic actually killed off when it sees wine present.
HTH.
Interesting, because I can turn things like bloom on in games like Lord of the Rings Online and it seems to be able to cope with it fine.
