Please give it a testing on your games, and post any needed stubs in this bug. I'm not going to send this end until I clean it up a bit more, and after 1.3.6 is released, since I anticipate it breaking a few games.

On start-up I can enter valid Xbox Live login credentials (which are accepted) and then I'm prompted for a CD key (which Steam provides via a pop-up). Entering the CD key causes GFWL to throw an error about having an incompatible network adapter, and the sign-in process fails (which appears required to play the game). I tried updating GFWL to the latest version and trying again, but that only seemed to make things worse - the game wouldn't start again until I clicked "Verify Integrity of Game Cache" in Steam. Replacing xlive.dll with a version of XLiveLess as per the AppDB entry instructions satisfied the requirement to get the game running. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

Why xlive.dll requires a specific wine implementation? Isn't it installed with xLiveRedist that comes along GFWL client? And couldn't it be you are focusing on the wrong versions too? I mean.. there are all those old ones bundled in games (famous to crash on newer Windows too), 3.5.88.0 (*1, bundled with the last offline "Client", which still requires an update to work 100%), 3.5.92.0 (*2, downloaded by online installer) and 3.5.95.0 (*3, which you are asked to install once you try to log in game). If any, I'd suppose there's just some unimplemented function in one of the API this dll relies on. *1 https://www.microsoft.com/en-US/download/details.aspx?id=5549 *2 http://download.gfwl.xboxlive.com/content/gfwl-public/redists/production/xli... http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=194359 *3 https://youtu.be/B0QoB1G23vg (I have no games in the VM with wireshark, so..

I thought Wine only implemented extra DLLs if it's impossible to download and install the official DLL on Wine. Wouldn't that exclude xlive.dll?
The msvc dlls were added before they were bundled with Windows. Don't get me wrong, xlive would be very difficult, so I'm not completely opposed to closing, just want to make clear it's not a set policy. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

I think the importance was already set to enhancement. It's simply a question of whether the DLL is within Wine's scope or not. -- 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.

The original reason was that XLive didn't work in Wine and was kinda on the verge of abandonment by Microsoft. Afaik XLive should work, so the original reason is kinda moot. The official pages are now hosted at Xbox Live support portal: https://support.xbox.com/en-US/games/game-setup/games-for-windows-live-info Download: http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=201134 -> Patches the games so that the old Games For Windows Live (GFWL) login is upgraded so it now connects to the XBOX server which replaced it) http://download.gfwl.xboxlive.com/content/gfwl-public/redists/production/xli... --- Coming back to the scope. There are also various other tickets in Wine Bugzilla which have rather questionable scope: https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=19816 (implement Visual Basic virtual machine, P-Code support) https://bugs.winehq.org/buglist.cgi?quicksearch=mfc&list_id=634476 (implement all MFC versions) ... These will likely stay forever until there is no more work left in important areas of Wine ^^. So why not XLive(less). There will be definitely no official integration in Wine the way XLiveless is intended to be implemented -> offline integration/mode (IMHO TOS violation). So this ticket could be used for status updates to external project (github etc.). I've refined the ticket summary to reflect that.

https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=23532 --- Comment #24 from mirh <mirh(a)protonmail.ch> --- There's a lot of misinformation (by clueless users) on the net about gfwl. Its older versions being bugged on W10 basically gets handed down as "microsoft shut it down". See here for all the actually updated files ://pcgamingwiki.com/wiki/Topic:Tqzf097s8dz1figh Then, while I have no knowledge about wine "best practices" (I thought dlls were reimplemented here, when some value could be added, like with OpenAl).. for much as xlivelees still has its point in skipping needless drm, I don't see why at all it should have something to do with wine. It provides even *less* features than the "official" implementation, and it doesn't even seem all that common library many people would appreciate. If any, why not making this about whatever blocking issue there is now?

You can find many abandoned / archived XLiveLess projects on Github: https://www.google.com/search?&q=XLiveless+github Wine bugs related to the original Microsoft GFWL redistributables were always present and have separate bug reports.
