[Bug 56941] New: EA app fails to launch game if total size of environment variables exceeds ~32000 characters
by WineHQ Bugzilla 11 Oct '25

11 Oct '25

https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=56941 Bug ID: 56941 Summary: EA app fails to launch game if total size of environment variables exceeds ~32000 characters Product: Wine Version: 9.12 Hardware: x86-64 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: kernel32 Assignee: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org Reporter: tinozzo123(a)gmail.com Distribution: --- ### Steps to reproduce Preparation: - Have the EA app installed: https://origin-a.akamaihd.net/EA-Desktop-Client-Download/installer-releases… - I installed it through Bottles, which installs the following Winetricks dependencies: https://github.com/bottlesdevs/programs/blob/main/Games/eaclient.yml Reproducing: - Set a very long environment variable, before launching the EA app - From the EA app, launch any game - Alternatively, execute the game directly, it will automatically launch the EA app to launch the game - If you don't have any game, "The Sims 4" is free - The game won't launch, an error popup from the EA app will appear (see notes) ### Notes It doesn't matter whether these ~32000 characters are from a single environment variable, or from the combination of many of them. I didn't test on Windows. It may be impossible to test there, since the environment block there has a limit of 32760 characters (which may probably be the reason for this issue in the first place). I say "~32000", because the issue starts occurring a little before 32760 characters. However, my counting method was imprecise (I simply typed `set` in `wine cmd`, then counted the characters), and there's also the fact that the EA app also sets its own environment variables. The issue also occurs with games bought from Steam (thus launched with Proton) that also have to go through the EA app (thanks EA). This issue existed before, and the weird thing is that the error popup from the EA app is different from some time ago (I imagine due to the app being updated). Before it was: "Failed to launch game. An error on our end caused the launch to fail. Try again a little later." Now it's: "The game hasn't released yet" (which is obviously untrue). Is it a stack overflow issue? Logs obtained with `WINEDEBUG=EADesktop.exe:+relay` are too big to attach, even compressed. Let me know what `WINEDEBUG` parameters I should use instead. I can see that the app calls `GetEnvironmentStringsW`, shortly followed by a `WideCharToMultiByte` for each variable (key and value separately). This is done three times. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=54227 Bug ID: 54227 Summary: Altium Designer 20.x - 22.x slowness in 2D schematics editor - possibly GDI font rendering problem Product: Wine-staging Version: 7.22 Hardware: x86-64 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown Assignee: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org Reporter: kepszlok(a)gmail.com CC: leslie_alistair(a)hotmail.com, z.figura12(a)gmail.com Distribution: --- Created attachment 73773 --> https://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=73773 Wine's output This is a problem that affects all Altium Designer versions from 20.x to current, with all wine-staging versions of 7.xx branch. See AD compatibility reports: 20.x https://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=38478 21.x https://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=40170 22.x https://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=40683 All of them shows slowness in the 2D schematics editor, while the 3D PCB editor works fine. Using the schematics editor, this message appears in constantly: 0118:fixme:d2d:d2d_device_context_DrawGeometry Ignoring stroke style 0000000001647F70. (the schematics editor itself working fine, just unusably slow) Possible reason: "probably because X2 uses GDI font rendering by default and lacks option to turn it off" -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

This code works Ok under all versions of Windows, from XP to Windows 11, the problem is specific to Wine 8.x under Linux (I use Kubuntu 23.04). To see the problem you can download my open source messenger Miranda NG from https://miranda-ng.org/downloads, just download a ZIP, run it and open main or tray icon menu. The full source code is avalable here: https://github.com/miranda-ng/miranda-ng, you need module menu_utils.cpp inside mir_app, InsertMenuItemWithSeparators or BuildRecursiveMenu functions.

[Bug 50382] New: Lego Star Wars Saga needs native d3dcompiler_47

https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=50382 Bug ID: 50382 Summary: Lego Star Wars Saga needs native d3dcompiler_47 Product: Wine Version: 6.0-rc3 Hardware: x86-64 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: directx-d3d-util Assignee: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org Reporter: j-r(a)online.de Distribution: --- After installing Lego Star Wars Saga (GOG version) into a fresh 32 bit prefix, the game starts up fine including sound and controls, but with the exception of backgrounds and some effects nothing (logo, menu, in game characters etc) is displayed or replaced by grey boxes. winetricks d3dcompiler_47 fixes that problem. (An older App DB report using wine 3.3 mentions the same problem and fixing it by installing d3d9.) There is no console output indicating a problem in that area (recreating the test with wine 3.3 gives plenty of d3dcompiler error messages; perhaps they have been silenced since then?). Since the other d3dcompiler related bugs I checked all seemed to have d3dcompiler error messages I opened this new report, though it very likely still is a duplicate. Please advise which debug channels to turn on to generate a useful log. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

[Bug 19153] New: DX3 game does not recognize graphics capabilities

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=19153 Summary: DX3 game does not recognize graphics capabilities Product: Wine Version: 1.1.24 Platform: PC URL: http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=versi on&iId=9396 OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: directx-ddraw AssignedTo: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org ReportedBy: bobbyg(a)gmx.net Resident Evil 1 does not start giving the error "Failed to initialize the Graphics Hardware Device.(3)". It's a DirectX 3 game using immediate mode. After some debugging I found that it relies on 3 (three) entries returned by EnumDevices whereas wine returns only the Direct3D HAL entry in this case (d3dversion == 1). Removing the if-clause in ddraw/direct3d.c and duplicating the HAL entry solves the problem and the game actually runs almost perfectly (Garbage -> Platinum). I checked a Windows installation which returns "HAL", "RGB Emulation" and "Ramp Emulation" but the comments in the file suggest that not all games are happy about that. So how to fix this properly? -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

[Bug 56596] New: Keyboard keypress generates NumLock keypress for all keys
by WineHQ Bugzilla 06 Oct '25

https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=56596 Bug ID: 56596 Summary: Keyboard keypress generates NumLock keypress for all keys Product: Wine Version: 9.7 Hardware: x86-64 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: major Priority: P2 Component: xinput Assignee: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org Reporter: m.kolesinski(a)gmail.com Distribution: --- When playing an old Quake III engine based game (Medal of Honor: Allied Assault) on Wine 9.4 thru 9.7, the game is no longer playable. All keyboard keypress events also send a duplicate 'NumLock' keypress. I previously had NumLock mapped (in-game) to perform some action, and remapping keys is now not possible because every attempt binds to NumLock. I believe the actual keypress AND NumLock keypress events are sent continuously while any keyboard key is held down (I tried various keys, they all do it). This was not an issue in Wine 9.2 and prior, and possibly 9.3 (I don't have that package to test with, but I've tested with 9.4, 9.5, 9.6, and 9.7 on Arch Linux). There are no DLL overrides, it's a "stock" 64-bit prefix. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.
