Description Benjamin Hodgetts 2006-12-11 18:21:37 UTC

When you try and install the game it starts, the DirectX installer comes up
which you ok and that closes happily but then NFS's installer complains that you
need a newer version of DirectX than "0" that is currently installed.

Comment 1 Juan Lang 2006-12-12 15:14:57 UTC

Confirming.  It looks like it expects fusion.dll to exist, which is part of the
.net runtime?

Forgot this before.

Comment 3 Mats Turesson 2007-02-12 15:38:31 UTC

Well not that I have a Linux machine up and running, that has a small kind of
possibility to run this game, but even though will I give you a possibility to
try this advice, works on most of the windows-machines having the same problem
or issue, with the new EA-games.

(works with one of my windows-machines)

If you execute the autorun.exe with the comp ability to Windows 2000 you will
probably be able to install the game. it will show you the text-lines containing
the "rules" to accept, and it will not complain about the DirectX 0.

Wish you good luck,

Kindness Regards Mr. Turesson

Dupe of bug 5552?

Comment 5 Gregor Münch 2007-07-08 07:58:58 UTC

Its not. NFS Carbon has no 3DSetup.exe which produces the error in bug #5552

Comment 6 Mirek Slugen 2007-09-04 03:41:29 UTC

This is fixed for me in wine 0.9.44

Comment 7 Lei Zhang 2007-09-04 13:30:33 UTC

reported fixed

Comment 8 Ambro 2007-12-07 15:21:52 UTC

I'm experiencing this bug in 0.9.50, tried win2000 and winxp modes.

Comment 9 Lei Zhang 2007-12-07 17:41:13 UTC

With a fresh .wine directory each time, I tried it out just now with wine 0.9.44 and 0.9.50 and I get the "DirectX 0" message on both versions of Wine. Reopening.

Just installed the demo with 0.9.54 on windows XP mode with no issues.

This fails for me now, as it says i need to insert cd 1 in the drive, but this is a demo.... Looks like a regression :(

Comment 12 James Hawkins 2008-03-24 13:15:19 UTC

The component can be set when the cause is known (regression test, logs, etc).

Comment 13 Louis Lenders 2008-03-24 13:19:58 UTC

Oops, looks like it was caused by running another setup.exe after extraction , as i have a lot of trash in the directory where i download the files. 
Sorry for the noise................................

The "DirectX 0" error is still present though

Comment 14 Austin English 2008-11-27 12:38:09 UTC

Still present in 1.1.9.

Comment 15 Ryan Bach 2008-12-28 00:31:53 UTC

I get the same issue with Wine 1.1.11, kernel 2.6.27.7-9.

I will attach logs of the Need for Speed Carbon Demo, + link if possible.

Removing deprecated CVS/GIT version tag. Please retest in current git. If still present, update version field to earliest known version of wine that had this bug. Thanks!

Installer hangs in git:

Comment 22 NSLW 2010-01-03 16:12:16 UTC

Have anyone tried to install .NET Framework 2.0 before installing NFS Carbon? It helps finishing installation of GRID which has the same terminal output.

Comment 23 Anastasius Focht 2010-08-05 14:51:37 UTC

Hello,

can't reproduce this with wine-1.3.0-166-g277040d and clean WINEPREFIX.

This problem was most likely a fusion API related insufficiency which has been fixed a long time ago.
Probably failure to enumerate DirectX assemblies in system GAC due to stubs.

Resolving fixed. Reopen if this still happens on recent Wine.
There is no 'winetricks dotnet20' needed as Wine's fusion is mature enough for this.

Regards

Comment 24 Alexandre Julliard 2010-08-20 12:37:27 UTC

Closing bugs fixed in 1.3.1.
