Summary: Regression in Heroes of Might and Magic 5 Product: Wine Version: 0.9.45. Platform: PC-x86-64 OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: wine-directx-d3d AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: martyspamtrap@comcast.net
This is observed on the full version of Heroes of Might and Magic 5 (but is probably reproducible on the demo). After updating to Wine 0.9.45 (coming from 0.9.44), I started experiencing application lockups in Heroes 5 during game play on the map screen. The lockup consists of no further mouse or keyboard instructions being recognize, although the background music continues to play. An ALT-TAB to a shell and a "kill -9" get me back in control.
The problem is triggered somewhat randomly, but I've reproduced it twice by loading up a saved game, panning around the map, viewing a hero's status screen, and returning to the map. At this point, some of the status windows are no longer drawing themselves completely and my system starts thrashing on my hard drive. A little more panning around the map results in the lockup.
This issue did not exist in Wine 0.9.44.
