None of the workarounds worked for me; if the problem is really the findfirstfile function, then it is just a matter of luck.
So I ended up in using an hardfile formatted in ntfs. Now i'm at turn 185 and all is still working.
* The hardfile is 10GB, i think it is enough for CivV plus addons. * $CIVILIZATION_WINEPREFIX is the wine prefix where civilization is actually installed
# dd if=/dev/zero of=./civ5.loopfile bs=1G count=10 # mkfs.ntfs -f -I -s 4096 -F ./civ5.loopfile # mkdir /mnt/civ5.loopdir + # mount ./civ5.loopfile /mnt/civ5.loopdir -o loop -t ntfs-3g # cp -a $CIVILIZATION_WINEPREFIX/ /mnt/civ5.loopdir/ + # export WINEPREFIX=/mnt/civ5.loopdir/
And play as usual from the new location. Actions marked as "+" need to be executed every time of course.
(...now try to do that on a fat32 windows system eheheh...)
You can create NTFS image file, mount it and copy Civ file from Civ folder in Steamapps folder. Then you can add the entry to the /etc/fstab file like this <disk image file> /home/user/$steamfolder/drive_c/blablabla/Civilization\ V ntfs loop 0 0 So it will mount automagically from start-up. No need to use separate wineprefix. -- 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.
