[Bug 18223] New: Grim Fandango: unable to install

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=18223 Summary: Grim Fandango: unable to install Product: Wine Version: 1.1.20 Platform: PC OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org ReportedBy: t0p0linik(a)yahoo.it Created an attachment (id=20730) --> (http://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=20730) Small error window during installation I just can't install the game at all! I wanted to know how far 1.1.20 is toward to make the game easily enjoyable and it can't be installed. Why? Furthermore, the error window I get is empty. I attach a screenshot. The "STOP" little window appears a couple of times during installation, then everything reaches the end and the install directory contains only two files: DeIsL1.isu (uninstaller data file?) and Grim.EXE So, the game is unusable. -- 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.

[Bug 21060] New: MCI open+play .avi hangs
by wine-bugs＠winehq.org Nov. 30, 2014

Nov. 30, 2014

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=21060 Summary: MCI open+play .avi hangs Product: Wine Version: 1.1.34 Platform: x86 OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: winmm&mci AssignedTo: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org ReportedBy: hoehle(a)users.sourceforge.net Perhaps this simple scenario explains one or another hang in some application. Please use my mci command shell at bug #20232, comment #10 to enter the following commands: open z:\...path\to\wine-src\dlls\shell32\searching.avi alias v play v Wine hangs. Alternatively: open z:\...path\to\wine-src\dlls\shell32\searching.avi alias v play v wait does not hang. Use close v Ctrl-D to exit the shell. open z:\...path\to\wine-src\dlls\shell32\searching.avi alias v window v show play v does not hang either. Supposedly you can use any .avi file of your choice. If you prefer, you can write a 20 liner C program to send the commands instead of using my shell. Perhaps there's some race condition? The play command must open a window if none is present (native does so). "play v wait" shows that Wine can do it too, yet the "play v" without previously opened window hangs. BTW, the window that Wine opens for the video is larger than the one native opens. It looks like there's room reserved to the right for a scrollbar. This could explain some layout discrepancies in some applications. But that's another issue. -- 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.

[Bug 8036] The Spirit Engine's save/load functionality does not work

https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8036 --- Comment #45 from Sebastian Lackner <sebastian(a)fds-team.de> --- (In reply to Claudio from comment #44) > I tried already multiple times to raise awareness on this issue, and last > time a test failed on Windows, as you can see in the comments above, thus > the patch was ignored. > > I do not have access to any Windows machine, so keeping this patch up to > date for the purpose of keeping the game working is all I can do. You do not need to have access to a Windows machine to work on Wine. Thats what the Wine testbots are for: https://testbot.winehq.org/ Register a free account, then you can test your patches (or arbitrary crosscompiled tests) in an Windows environment. Please note that the tests should also pass in Wine without any errors. Your latest patch fixes some issues, but doesn't remove the corresponding todo_wine. Besides that you do not follow the coding style of the sourrounding code, and you also use tabs instead of spaces, which is not allowed in the Wine source. If you're still interested in fixing this upstream, you should make yourself familiar with the wine test suite / testbot / ..., and then write tests for all the changes you introduce. Changing all functions in a single patch is also a bad idea, better split it up in multiple patches, each with a corresponding test to show that this indeed matches Windows behaviour. Feel free to ask me (via email or in #wine-staging on IRC) if you need any help for that. I have added a cleaned up version to Wine Staging: https://github.com/wine-compholio/wine-staging/blob/master/patches/kernel32… -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

[Bug 8036] The Spirit Engine's save/load functionality does not work

https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8036 --- Comment #44 from Claudio <sick_soul(a)yahoo.it> --- (In reply to roger from comment #43) > What's wrong with the patch that you couldnt send it over patches list and > got merged into upstream? > > https://source.winehq.org/patches/ I tried already multiple times to raise awareness on this issue, and last time a test failed on Windows, as you can see in the comments above, thus the patch was ignored. I do not have access to any Windows machine, so keeping this patch up to date for the purpose of keeping the game working is all I can do. The fundamental issue is that the windows profile API does not explicitly mention what happens when section string or key string are the empty string in the GetPrivateProfileString and WritePrivateProfileString. In fact, it's nothing special at all (the section "" is a valid section, and the key "" is a valid key), but instead wine insists considering section "" and key "" as invalid names for sections/keys, therefore causing all sorts of data corruption and weird runtime behavior when running under wine. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.
