--- snip ---
'PnkBstrK' is extracted by the service maintenance app into a temp directory.
'PnkBstrB' service verifies the digital signature of the driver and requests
creation of the actual kernel service upon success.
There is a small time frame between service start call returning (state
'SERVICE_START_PENDING') and the driver service entry point being fully
executed (state 'SERVICE_RUNNING') which causes the harm here.
Immediately after the return from call to 'StartServiceA', 'PnkBstrB' service
tries to open '\\DosDevices\\pnkbstrk_link' which fails because the device
symlink is created in the driver entry point which is executing asynchronously.
MSDN:
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/ms686321%28v=vs.85…
The 'remarks' section gives the hint:
--- quote ---
When a driver service is started, the StartService function does not return
until the device driver has finished initializing.
--- quote ---
Wine must follow this requirement.

Hello C# World :-)
--- snip ---
This due to LOCALE_ALLOW_NEUTRAL_NAMES (0x8000000) being passed to allow
returning neutral names/lcids for name.
MSDN:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/dd318711%28v=vs.85%…
--- quote ---
Windows 7 and later: Can be set to LOCALE_ALLOW_NEUTRAL_NAMES to allow the
return of a neutral LCID.
--- quote ---
One could set to default "Windows XP" after installation but I'm not sure about
the side-effects.

zsh: bad CPU type in executable: wine
%
But 64bit give;
% wine64 Crow_Nest_Junction_RELEASE_1_setup.exe
wine: created the configuration directory '/Users/john/.wine'
... See attachment
0009:err:module:__wine_process_init
L"Z:\\Users\\john\\Downloads\\Crow_Nest_Junction_RELEASE_1_setup.exe" not
supported on this system
%
I also get popups about Mono and Gecko which I both install.
Not sure if Wine issue, or exe issue, or 32bit or 64bit issue. I'm aware macOS
10.15 is not fully officialyl supported and to raise bugs.
I tried notepad which give;
% wine64 notepad
000d:err:macdrv:process_attach Failed to start Cocoa app main loop
000d:err:user:load_desktop_driver failed to load
L"C:\\windows\\system32\\winemac.drv"
%
If I delete ~/.wine and retry notepad then it successfully opens.

winedebug log
Reporting for this game:
https://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=38689
This is a game that is launched through the Epic Games Launcher. In the past,
multiplayer worked, but MW5 released a game update that broke it. I have tried
with multiple Internet connections to rule out local issues, and flushed my
iptables configuration. There is definitely something about the network
connectivity for multiplayer that Wine doesn't support.
Attached log with WINEDEBUG=warn+all,+timestamp
Based on some packet captures, it appears they are hosting a Coturn STUN server
(version 4.5.1.1) on Amazon EC2 to do the session joining without anyone
needing to forward ports. Not sure if they only use this for VoIP, or for the
game also.
Wireshark packet capture available upon request. Most of it is encrypted, but
it does appear that the TURN/STUN negotiation fails, possibly due to Wine not
emulating the networking code correctly.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Install Epic Games Launcher in a wineprefix following the workarounds from
the Epic Games Launcher appdb entry
2. Install MechWarrior 5 following the workarounds from the MechWarrior 5 appdb
entry -- recommend installing both DXVK and media foundation as dependencies
3. Launch MechWarrior 5 (required: modern GPU and drivers that can drive DXVK
reliably; AMD Vega/Navi + recent open source Mesa or Nvidia Pascal/Turing +
Nvidia binaries seem to work well)
4. Using two players, or two separate instances of MW5 and one person, have the
people add each other as "Friends" in the game interface.
5. Have one person click on Co-Op, then Instant Action, then Confirm (just
accept the default scenario). The person who clicks on Co-Op is the HOST.
6. On the screen where the player's mech is displayed and there are three empty
bays for other mechs to be added, the HOST will go to their Friends list (top
left corner) and invite the other person to join the game.
7. The person who got invited must accept the invite from their friends list.
8. Expected behavior: the invitee loads into the match. Actual behavior:
"Connecting to server" message is displayed for about 30 seconds, then the
invitee is given a black screen or brief loading screen, then kicked back to
the main menu.
It is recommended for the HOST to be running native Windows with a
configuration known to work with MW5 co-op multiplayer. Native Windows users
also fail to join a game that is hosted by a Wine user, but in order to
successfully reproduce this bug with only one of the two players having an
issue, one of the two should be running on a working client on native Windows.
Of course, eventually if the bug is fixed, a Wine user can be both the host and
the invitee.
