https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=55364 Bug ID: 55364 Summary: Shadow Empire crashes on startup with an error related to SharpDX and Direct2D. Product: Wine Version: 8.13 Hardware: x86-64 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown Assignee: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org Reporter: kindaro(a)gmail.com Distribution: --- _Shadow Empire_ is a computer game. It can be obtained, for example, from Steam or Good Old Games. I installed what I believe to be version 1.21.00. This is the gist of the error message that the game gives me: ``` SharpDX.SharpDXException: HRESULT: [0x88990028], Module: [SharpDX.Direct2D1], ApiCode: [D2DERR_EFFECT_IS_NOT_REGISTERED/EffectIsNotRegistered], Message: Unknown ``` When I run it as `WINEDEBUG=+d2d wine ShadowEmpire.exe`, I see the following warning from Wine: ``` 0114:warn:d2d:d2d_effect_create Effect id {9daf9369-3846-4d0e-a44e-0c607934a5d7} not found. ``` I shall be attaching the full text of the error and Wine's output. My operating system is Arch Linux, recently updated. The failure occurs both with `wine` and `wine-staging`. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

[Bug 51134] New: Support redirecting GetOpenFileName and GetSaveFileName through org.freedesktop.portal.FileChooser
by WineHQ Bugzilla Feb. 9, 2026

Feb. 9, 2026

https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=51134 Bug ID: 51134 Summary: Support redirecting GetOpenFileName and GetSaveFileName through org.freedesktop.portal.FileChooser Product: Wine Version: unspecified Hardware: x86-64 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: enhancement Priority: P2 Component: -unknown Assignee: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org Reporter: from_wine_bugzilla(a)ssokolow.com Distribution: --- While not all options in the OPENFILENAME structure can be supported via the org.freedesktop.portal.FileChooser interface, providing the option to redirect an application's request for a common Open/Save dialog through the XDG chooser system would have two beneficial effects on non-OSX POSIX systems: 1. Better integration, since the application run under Wine would use the native desktop file pickers, complete with the user's Places sidebar bookmarks and any other customizations they've enacted. 2. More practical security, since Wine could then be run in a filesystem sandbox, with the portal host mounting files/directories into the sandboxed environment on demand. I'd suggest a three-state option exposed through winecfg's Desktop Integration: 1. Opportunistically (Qt's approach to integrating support for XDG portals into QFileDialog provides precedent for making this the default. Uses the portal-based file chooser unless an application requests a combination of OPENFILENAME settings that cannot be represented by the portal API.) 2. Forced (An option for power users to set on a per-application basis to intentionally sacrifice the application's customizations in favour of better integration with the understanding that things may break.) 3. Never (An option for users who prefer consistency between their Windows applications over consistency with the rest of their desktop or have deleted the Z: mapping and configured their Wine prefix around the idea of only working with drive letters.) These high-level preferences could also apply equally well to any other platform's native file chooser, should integration with it be implemented. The D-Bus API in question is documented at https://flatpak.github.io/xdg-desktop-portal/portal-docs.html#gdbus-org.fre… While it is outside the scope of this feature request, it may also be possible to use the TrashFile() method of this API to integrate with the host desktop's Trash. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

[Bug 56787] New: Comctl32 Edit - Handles does not work wirth large content as limited to 16bits

https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=56787 Bug ID: 56787 Summary: Comctl32 Edit - Handles does not work wirth large content as limited to 16bits Product: Wine Version: 9.10 Hardware: x86-64 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: comctl32 Assignee: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org Reporter: kyle.kcsoftwares(a)gmail.com Distribution: --- Test case : using a notepad, open a large (eg : 10 MB) file. Vertical handle is unable to reach the bottom. Observed in Ubuntu with Wine 9.10 but this has been reported in ReactOS too ( https://jira.reactos.org/browse/CORE-19305 ). Cause seems to be as following, quoting comment from the ticket : "The messages that indicate scroll bar position, WM_HSCROLL and WM_VSCROLL, provide only 16 bits of position data. The GetScrollInfo function enables applications to use 32-bit scroll positions."

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=58506 Bug ID: 58506 Summary: Some VST plugins using OpenGL don't render in WOW64 mode (black screen) Product: Wine Version: unspecified Hardware: x86-64 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: opengl Assignee: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org Reporter: a.oleinic103(a)gmail.com Distribution: --- When using yabridge to run Windows VST plugins in a native Linux DAW (in my case, REAPER), Waves plugins do not render correctly, showing a black window. The window is interactable (grabs the cursor, can change settings, etc), but dragging it, closing and re-opening, etc. does not work. In the logs, the plugins show a bunch of OpenGL errors. This is specifically a WOW64 regression, since using a build of Wine 10 without WOW64 works fine.

[Bug 21158] New: Hitman: Contracts ignores mouse press events
by wine-bugs＠winehq.org Feb. 7, 2026

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=21158 Summary: Hitman: Contracts ignores mouse press events Product: Wine Version: 1.1.35 Platform: x86 URL: http://www.gamershell.com/download_5663.shtml OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Keywords: download, regression Severity: minor Priority: P2 Component: directx-dinput AssignedTo: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org ReportedBy: arethusa26(a)gmail.com CC: vitaliy(a)kievinfo.com With wine-1.1.35-180-g20a50f3, after launching Hitman: Contracts, mouse press events at the main menu are ignored by the game. Since a user reported that the game worked normally in wine-1.1.9, a regression test was performed, which indicated: 3743a1a7ca170c765cd779c61b9e362c5b1c5203 is first bad commit commit 3743a1a7ca170c765cd779c61b9e362c5b1c5203 Author: Vitaliy Margolen <wine-patches(a)kievinfo.com> Date: Sun Feb 1 13:11:46 2009 -0700 dinput: Consume mouse & keyboard events in exclusive mode. :040000 040000 6ae6b43b3c100af38ed4f27384470dc4d2595bc1 700b35b9bc8fd27239ee8faaed8ca1c10cfc31d4 M dlls Wine built prior to the indicated commit allows mouse input to work normally. Interestingly, doing graphical mode changes (via keyboard input) makes mouse input work again. The AppDB also suggests adding the strings: UseDirectInputMouse UseDirectInputKeyboard to the HitmanContracts.ini configuration file to have mouse input work.

[Bug 58961] New: SynthFont2 crashes when attempting to launch it
by WineHQ Bugzilla Feb. 7, 2026

Feb. 7, 2026

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=58961 Bug ID: 58961 Summary: SynthFont2 crashes when attempting to launch it Product: Wine Version: 10.18 Hardware: x86-64 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown Assignee: wine-bugs(a)list.winehq.org Reporter: unwed-cola-zesty(a)duck.com Distribution: --- Created attachment 79662 --> http://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=79662 Backtrace of the described bug. The latest version of SynthFont2 (2.9.1.1) crashes with an access violation in SynthFont2x64.exe when opening, once the 30-day trial dialog is closed. To reproduce: 0. Download and install the program from the following link: https://www.synthfont.com/SynthFont2x64Setup.exe 1. Launch SynthFont2 (the main executable is "SynthFont2x64.exe", present at "C:\Program Files\SynthFont2"). 2. Dismiss the 30-day trial window ("You are on day X of the 30 day trial period. Have fun!"). 3. The app notifies of an access violation in "SynthFont2x64.exe". Expected behaviour: The app doesn't crash on startup. The issue occurs on SynthFont2 v2.9.1.1 when running on Linux Mint 22.2 with the latest wine-devel (10.18). The issue does NOT occur on the same SynthFont version (v2.9.1.1) running on latest Windows 10. Additional information: SynthFont is a MIDI player and editor for Windows. v1 is the original free version (with less features), v2 is the newer paid version (described in this bug report). Only v1 is listed in the AppDB, and even then it hasn't been updated since v1.322 (released in 2009), with the latest version being 1.815. Backtrace is attached. Not sure where to find Wine logs, so they aren't included. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.
