Early I run WME (version 1.5.2) in Cedega and it worked normal. And WME games too. I don't know what was happened, but 3D games was not worked anymore. Now I try to run it again, I use CVScedega (because I want it legal but I can't buy it in Russia. As I far as I know credit card cost 50$) and it writes:

err:x11drv:X11DRV_GLX_MakeCurrent failed to set OpenGL context
err:x11drv:X11DRV_GLX_ContextCreate error creating 3D context
and WME writes:

Error initializing accelerated renderer. Sticking back to software...
The same WME writes in Wine 0.9.10 but WME works well and 2D-games. wme_demo_3d_2 doesn't work and wme_demo_3d works with errors (screenshot - http://reptilesquest.narod.ru/screenshot.jpg).
What does WME's message mean? Maybe the problem in my devices? I have Radeon 9600 Pro videocard and nVidia nForce2 matherboard. Can WME write this message under Windows?

WME can either use Direct3D or DirectDraw. The message means WME was unable to use Direct3D and uses DirectDraw instead. Your 3D card probably isn't setup correctly and Cedega is in turn unable to setup OpneGL, which it uses to emulate Direct3D.
