I'm going to take a wild guess here and say.... AI crawlers. Hopefully not though and there's something simpler going on? -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

[Bug 59461] New: Transformers Fall of Cybertron: Regression in WINE causes multiplayer to never load.
by WineHQ Bugzilla Feb. 26, 2026

Feb. 26, 2026

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=59461 Bug ID: 59461 Summary: Transformers Fall of Cybertron: Regression in WINE causes multiplayer to never load. Product: Wine Version: 11.3 Hardware: x86-64 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown Assignee: wine-bugs(a)list.winehq.org Reporter: robomike27theslime(a)gmail.com Distribution: --- Tested on Arch Linux x86_64. No regression testing could be done. Previous commits between 8.13 to wine 8.14 won't compile because of errors in in "dlls/http.sys/http.c". Transformers Fall of Cybertron Multiplayer was taken offline in April of 2020 but since June 22nd 2022 has been re-implemented by the Warehouse. https://wiki.aiwarehouse.xyz/en/home Please note you must create a wineprefix with wine 9 or newer first for the custom DLL to have access to bcryptprimitives.dll. Wine-8.7 to Wine-8.13 can load into multiplayer when following https://wiki.aiwarehouse.xyz/en/tfc-foc-pc-guide and https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3131604937 . Wine-8.14 and higher cannot access multiplayer when you follow the above guides. It visually shows a "Connecting to Transformers: FoC servers..." loading screen infinitely. The new DLL does not affect this bug as when we were only using a registry file to allow multiplayer functionality it still caused this issue. Download links: This game is abandonware and it's steam page has been taken down https://store.steampowered.com/app/213120/Transformers_Fall_of_Cybertron/ and can no longer be purchased. If someone requires a copy and didn't buy it before December 2017, the internet archive has a re-upload from user "OldenFood" of the steam version. There are no other versions or revisions officially released on PC. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

[Bug 58194] New: Screenshots upload broken due to Cloudflare challenge page
by WineHQ Bugzilla Feb. 26, 2026

Feb. 26, 2026

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=58194 Bug ID: 58194 Summary: Screenshots upload broken due to Cloudflare challenge page Product: WineHQ Apps Database Version: unspecified Hardware: x86-64 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: appdb-unknown Assignee: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org Reporter: tomman(a)gmail.com Distribution: --- I'm trying to upload some screenshots for apps I maintain, when I got challenged by Cloudflare out of the blue (and as we recall, they have a strong dislike for web browsers like mine, SeaMonkey). Even after I manage to pass the challenge, I get a error page telling me I didn't specified the Wine version for the screenshot, but it's quite obvious what's happening here: the CF challenge is getting in the way, eating the POST'd form data (including the screenshot itself!), and after getting past the challenge, screenshots.php receives no data at all, so it errors out with the first missing piece of information it can find, I guess. This is a very weird place to put a challenge, since it effectively breaks the workflow, and furthermore, I noticed WineHQ is migrating away from Cloudflare challenges to Anubis (which is more tolerant with non-mainstream browsers), but somehow this one slipped down the cracks. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.
