Bug ID: 47994 Summary: Nancy Drew: Danger By Design Product: Wine Version: 1.3.34 Hardware: x86 OS: Mac OS X Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown Assignee: wine-bugs@winehq.org Reporter: jilly5791@gmail.com
After game was finally successfully installed using Wineskin, there was an issue with the game pointer cursor over the game cursor and was able to change that by reading a page of someone's success using the game developer page and is found after loading a game once saved and started and using the keyboard keys: "Control","Shift","Tab", and the letter "C" as in Cat.
That was one of the problems I had, among a few others, but the one left that I am currently working on resolving is that there is a bug that closes the game after Nancy Drew's letter closure and right before the game award announcement. It was said on the page that there was a problem with the "game.exe" that was critical and had to close the game immediately, but also instructed me to check on the application manual or something to do with the application. I think it meant this page for more information on Wineskin to find a solution to the problem and also a link to report the bug, which I am doing now.
I couldn't find this bug listed among other common problems that others have when trying to install the older Nancy Drew games with Wineskin such as immediately screen flash-outs and directing the driver and file location appropriately after copying the correct files. Different games require different installed engines when creating their set wrappers. "Creatures of Kapu Cave" and the one I love and am working with "Danger By Design" require: "WS8Wine1.3.18", while nearly all others require, "WS8Wine1.3.34".
I hope this information helps to identify and further investigate this bug issue and provide others with insightful information henceforth. Meanwhile, I will continue to delve into the "Game.exe"s and hopefully trace the hangup.
Thank you! :)
