Hex editing the software you use isn't exactly a fix from the wine perspective. Since you mention Microsoft fonts, does "winetricks corefonts" maybe work around the problem as well? That would make this another duplicate of bug 32342.
. Well it wasn't really a wine problem. I stupidly assumed it was and submitted it only to realize that it had a function that was checking for a specific segoescript font and if it didn't find the dll exited and PlantsVsZombies.exe froze. I stepped through with a debugger found the useless function replaced it with nops and it works.The dll doesn't need the font by the way. I don't know why that function was there in the first place and i don't care.
fixing the problem by installing proprietary microsoft fonts is not the solution since the program doesn't need them and having users install proprietary fonts for no good reason is not a good thing in my opinion and we should instead push users towards solution that do not require proprietary components -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.
