[Bug 30210] New: Outcry (English version) displays subtitles in Russian
http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=30210 Bug #: 30210 Summary: Outcry (English version) displays subtitles in Russian Product: Wine Version: 1.3.27 Platform: x86 OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Keywords: regression Severity: minor Priority: P2 Component: ntdll AssignedTo: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org ReportedBy: gyebro69(a)gmail.com CC: notasas(a)gmail.com Classification: Unclassified Regression SHA1: 006413afe495fbf73542154462885e4fdbf12a2a Outcry (Russian title: Sublustrum) is an adventure game. I have the English version of the game, obtained from Gamersgate. Subtitles, although they're scarce in the game, appear incorrectly in the English version. Strange signs and symbols are shown instead of Latin letters. As the game is from Russian developers, I tried to start the game with 'LANG=ru_RU.UTF-8 wine outcry.exe' and subtitles were displayed correctly...in Russian with Cyrillic letters. If I'm not mistaken, the full (English) version of the game contains both Russian and English subtitles, but it displays the Russian one for some reason. This wasn't always the case. I remember playing the game some time ago, around Wine-1.3.17, and subtitles were displayed correctly (in English). Regression testing revealed this (1.3.26 -> 1.3.27): 006413afe495fbf73542154462885e4fdbf12a2a is the first bad commit commit 006413afe495fbf73542154462885e4fdbf12a2a Author: Grazvydas Ignotas <notasas(a)gmail.com> Date: Thu Aug 4 23:24:49 2011 +0300 ntdll: Use swapping method to return . and .. as first entries. :040000 040000 cb445dd153f9b57d3a2e7cc71206441d0530fdf3 5e84ecb0723072147d39a7be912139f962db85df M dlls The reverted patch (1.5.0) fixed the problem, and subtitles were displayed in English. There are both English and Russian demo versions available but none of them show the same problem (probably because they contain subtitles only for their language?)

Files containing subs have the name as sub1.txt, sub2.txt, sub3.txt, books.txt - subloc.spk contains English subtitles and other resources.

Is that install-time, ingame selection or maybe regional settings or something? The log looks ok, perhaps the game relies on the order NtQueryDirectoryFile returns file list in. If so it is not guaranteed to work regardless of my patch, as file order is filesystem dependent. The game could be making an assumption of some order as it's 99% chance there would be NTFS or FAT32 on Windows, but wine currently returns files in the order host file system gives them, so that can't be easily fixed. -- 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.

There is no language selection option neither in the installer nor in the game. If I start the game in Wine-1.3.26 with Russian localization (LANG=ru_RU.UTF-8), the game still displays the English subs. Audio files are all in English. It's only the subtitles that are both in Russian and English.

Maybe I should try the game on other filesystems (ext3, reiserfs). Do you think that should matter? -- 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.

Maybe I should try the game on other filesystems (ext3, reiserfs). Do you think that should matter? If it cares about the order in which things are enumerated it would. Note that ext3 doesn't necessarily order directories lexicographically either though. You'd need to turn of dir_index, and make sure the files are written in the correct order to begin with. You could probably hack something together with tar -T and a sorted list of the files.

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=30210 --- Comment #6 from GyB <gyebro69(a)gmail.com> 2012-03-19 14:04:00 CDT --- I tried the game across various disks/partitions on my system, but the result didn't make any sense to me. Let's assume the following setup: 2 internal HDDs (sda, sdb) + 1 external usb HDD (sdc). -sda carries my system (/boot /root /var /tmp /home + 1 additional data partition). All of them (except /boot) are formatted as ext4. When the game is installed on this disk, either in /home or in /data, the problem exists. -sdb has 3 partitions (2x ext4, 1x ext3). The game runs *without* the problem when installed 2 of the 3 partitions (1x ext3, 1x ext4), but shows the problem on the 3rd partition (ext4). - sdc has 2 partitions (1x ext3, 1x ext4). The problem exists on both partitions. So there are 2 partitions on one of my disks where the game shows subtitles correctly. -- 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.

You can create a ntfs partition and mount it or ntfs-on-a-file and mount that with loop, then install the game there to get closer to NTFS setup the game is likely expecting. -- 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.
