Issues fixed

No hardware acceleration

If you're playing on a newer computer, chances are Peggle will reject your video card and say it's too old if you try to enable 3D acceleration. This is a problem with some newer (as of writing this) cards, such as the Vega 56 or the GTX 1070. Fixing this is simple.

  • Download WineD3D from here.
  • Open the directory where Peggle is installed.
  • In the root of that directory, extract wined3d.dll, libwine.dll and ddraw.dll.

When you start Peggle again, hardware acceleration should be enabled.

This also works for most older PopCap games.

Low FPS

There are two ways of fixing the problem:

  • Disable hardware acceleration if fullscreen is on.
  • Play the game in a window. Hardware acceleration works fine while the game is windowed.

Notes

  1. 1.0 1.1 File/folder structure within this directory reflects the path(s) listed for Windows and/or Steam game data (use Wine regedit to access Windows registry paths). Games with Steam Cloud support may store data in ~/.steam/steam/userdata/<user-id>/3480/ in addition to or instead of this directory. The app ID (3480) may differ in some cases. Treat backslashes as forward slashes. See the glossary page for details.
  2. When running this game without elevated privileges (Run as administrator option), write operations against a location below %PROGRAMFILES%, %PROGRAMDATA%, or %WINDIR% might be redirected to %LOCALAPPDATA%\VirtualStore on Windows Vista and later (more details).
