http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=31725 Bug #: 31725 Summary: The Sims 2 crashes Product: Wine Version: 1.4 Platform: x86 OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org ReportedBy: thomas.mertes(a)gmx.at Classification: Unclassified Installing the Sims 2 worked, but starting it results in a crash. The program locks up. Using alt-tab reveals two error message popups (in german, because I use the german version called "Die Sims 2"): (X) Direct3D hat einen Fehler festgestellt: D3DERR_INVALID_CALL! Die Anwendung wird nun beendet. (X) Die Anwendung ist abgestürzt und wird nun beendet. Translation of the two error message popups: (X) Direct3D found an error: D3DERR_INVALID_CALL! The application will be terminated now. (X) The application crashed and will be terminated now. After waiting for several minutes I switched to a text console and killed the program. The console where I started the Sims 2 contains several log messages (see attachment). uname -a returns: Linux penguin 3.2.0-30-generic #48-Ubuntu SMP Fri Aug 24 16:54:40 UTC 2012 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux wine --version returns wine-1.4 -- 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.
