so i bought half life 2 yesterday. it does in fact run under cedega, and surprizingly fast.

my problem: in the graphics menu it says "software directx level: direct x 7.0
hardware directx level: direct x 9.0"

Its only using direct x 7.0 features. i read somewhere to use the command line "-dxlevel90" but it had no effect.

some information that may help:
debian 3.1 "unstable"
gnome 2.10
nvidia-glx (debain packages)
geforce 6600 256mb agp --> d-sub
alsa/oss both work
xserver-xorg

cedega ver. 4.4.1
point2play 2.0.3

any help would be appreciated.

thanks
 
now this is really weird ... i have directx 8 graphics in halflife source and counterstrike source, but only 7 in halflife
 
I read somewhere that cedega does not have full directx 9 compatibility yet (something to do with the shaders). This is the reason that BF2 won't run on it.

Try adding the switch "-dxlevel 80" to the command line to run in direct8 mode.
