[Bug 2947] Might and Magic VI doesn't close properly when told to do so, wine must be killed

by Wine Bugs

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2947 ------- Additional Comments From Speeddymon(a)gmail.com 2005-09-05 23:10 ------- Now I'm thoroughly confused lol.. You say that the titlebars appear at 3:15, and the game does not hang.. Quote: In the version from 3:15 4/27, the window is positioned incorrectly (the decorations are visible) and the game does not hang on exit. And that the titlebar disappears at 3:19, and the game does hang.. Quote: In the 3:19 4/27 version, the window is positioned correctly (the decorations are not visible) and the game does hang on exit. SO.. I think we got a little backwards, because the pictures are named differently.. The 1:39 pic is named correct, and does not show the titlebar, the 1:41 pic is named incorrect and does show the titlebar.. See how I got confused? SO.. I am now wondering whether the picures were named wrong when you saved them to disk, and because the names were wrong you typed the summary wrong, or if this most recent clarification was wrong due to a lack of sleep ;-).. Let me know. About the flexibility of Linux, that is not a feature of wine or Linux, it is a bug. wine is designed to mimic windows, so if the game changes the resolution to 640x480 and therefore makes it's window take the full screen in Windows, wine should do the same, but thats the subject of YAB..... :-\ Waiting on your re-clarification ;-) Dustin -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee.

[Bug 2608] Might and Magic VI - appdb 1070 has shrinker error mss32.dll

by Wine Bugs

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2608 ------- Additional Comments From inverseparadox(a)comcast.net 2005-09-05 19:49 ------- Just as a note: yes, MM6 does come with this DLL already "shrink"ed. Before I used the attached program, DeShrinker, to decompress it, I could not run MM6 either. I've just tested with the still-compressed version, and yes, current CVS still cannot run MM6 with the compressed version of the DLL. I hadn't explicitly thought of filing a bug about the need to support 'shrink'ed DLLs (and EXEs, since they can be similarly compressed), but it does sound like a good idea; part of the reason I had provided a copy of DeShrinker was as a possible resource to help people figure out how to produce a similar effect on-the-fly. (Note that the URL needs to be corrected, to AppDB entry 1070 - currently it points to entry 1229, which is Heroes of Might and Magic IV, which is not the same game at all.) -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee.

[Bug 2947] Might and Magic VI doesn't close properly when told to do so, wine must be killed

by Wine Bugs

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2947 ------- Additional Comments From inverseparadox(a)comcast.net 2005-09-05 19:32 ------- No, that's not correct. For one thing, it's "hang", not "crash" - and for another, you have it backwards. In the version from 3:15 4/27 (AM, not PM - the times given are in 24-hour clock), the window is positioned incorrectly (the decorations are visible) and the game does not hang on exit. In the 3:19 4/27 version, the window is positioned correctly (the decorations are not visible) and the game does hang on exit. The only reason I brought the issue up here is because the undesirable behaviour disappeared when the bug appeared, and I wanted to be sure people knew that (some ways of) fixing the bug might reintroduce the misbehaviour. I think it's worth keeping the relevant information at hand, since currently the misbehaviour does not exist on its own or in affiliation with any other reportable bug. If you were correct that the misbehaviour still existed, alongside the hang-on-exit bug, then a separate bug with a dependency would be correct - but as things stand I don't think it's the right way to do this, though I'll admit I don't know much about these practices yet. The game does not display title bar (etc.) in Windows, for the simple reason that it is not possible under Windows to have the game window non-minimized while the viewport is displaying anything other than what is inside that window; when you switch out of the game by Alt-Tab or similar, the game minimizes to the Taskbar (switching back to normal resolution in the process), and when you switch back to that window the resolution changes to 640x480 and the viewport becomes fixed. Under my Linux system (I don't know which parts of it this depends on), if I have the viewport resolution smaller than the desktop resolution, moving the pointer to a side of the viewport will scroll it in that direction, within the limits of the size of the desktop. I like the additional options I get under Linux (change resolutions up and down on my own, switch out of the game window but leave it displayed, etc.), since they give me more convenient access to text editors (etc.) for note-taking, but they are not consistent with the way the program behaves under Windows; I'm not sure they need to be, either, though I know others may disagree. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee.

[Bug 2932] copy / paste to openoffice

by Wine Bugs

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2932 ------- Additional Comments From spamtrap475rsd(a)wanadoo.fr 2005-09-05 18:17 ------- OK, I would be interested that you walk me through a regression test. Maybe on wednesday after about 4pm (at midnight in France) ? I did set up a jabber account for instant messaging. I installed the sources (Wine-20041201.tar.gz) and wine-cvsdirs-20041201.tar.gz (but I warn you : I know nothing about CVS !). I compiled the sources and tried the resulting program. Pasting to OpenOffice works well with this version. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee.

[Bug 2947] Might and Magic VI doesn't close properly when told to do so, wine must be killed

by Wine Bugs

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2947 ------- Additional Comments From Speeddymon(a)gmail.com 2005-09-05 17:15 ------- I'm guessing that the CVS at 3:15pm on 4/27 does not show the decorations, and therefore crashed when closing, but the CVS at 3:19pm on 4/27 DOES show the decorations, and therefore does NOT crash when closing. Correct? Does the game display the titlebar when running it windowed, in Windows? If that is the case, then yes this would be an issue that would need to be fixed (and probably will be once we get finished with the windowing rewrite). But then the game may crash on closing once that happens.. SO We need another bug for the window decorations.. I will invalidate the 2 attachments here, and depend this bug on the one that you open for that issue, once you get it open. Then just attach those 2 attachments to that bug.. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee.

[Bug 2608] Might and Magic VI - appdb 1070 has shrinker error mss32.dll

by Wine Bugs

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2608 ------- Additional Comments From Speeddymon(a)gmail.com 2005-09-05 16:55 ------- What release of wine are you using (if not CVS)? MM 6 should be working fine, as other bugs were recently fixed relating to this game. From your description, it seems as though you are saying that MM6 comes with this dll already "shrinked". If that is the case, then please try the recent CVS version of wine, or wait until the May release.. That should get it running, although it doesn't close properly. If it came not shrinked, and you did that yourself, then the obvious solution would be to just unshrink it, and dont use that program anymore. Of course a bug filed about dlls not loading that are "shrinked" would be nice too, but not necessary. Leaving open for now, so I can see your response. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee.

[Bug 2840] Unreal engine based games broken .... ?

However, as a test, try changing the user32 \painting.c routine update_now, so a break occurs after all the processing in the case where child==prev. BTW I've also sent this to wine-devel http://www.winehq.org/hypermail/wine-devel/2005/05/0420.html I dont know if its the same problem as yours, but if you have cvs to play with, its worth trying. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee.

[Bug 2897] winrar in wine crashes when trying to paste a password or do other mouse-clicks

by Wine Bugs

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2897 ------- Additional Comments From lamber45(a)cse.msu.edu 2005-09-05 16:23 ------- I can't get WinRAR (3.30 evaluation version, Spanish localization, on Wine 20050310 with Win2k stuff in the path, XFree86 Version 3.3.6a) to duplicate this behavior. There are a few visual glitches, etc., but I haven't seen it crash or corrupt data. Have you tried with a newer version of Wine (I compile my own and use it on Debian Stable) or a different X server? -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee.

[Bug 2931] Diablo 2 video test fails

by Wine Bugs

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2931 ------- Additional Comments From Speeddymon(a)gmail.com 2005-09-05 15:48 ------- Got it, I am sending a note to the developers now. A quick note though, usually it's easier (for future reference) if you just provide a link to the commit email in the wine-cvs hypermail archives, so that they can tell what time it happened at, and who the patch was written by, since alexandre julliard is the only person allowed to make commits. If you could provide that link here, it would be great, but it isnt required. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee.
