Bug ID: 51870 Summary: D16 VST plugins fail to save activation info Product: Wine-staging Version: 6.19 Hardware: x86-64 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown Assignee: wine-bugs@winehq.org Reporter: zephyr@zephnet.biz CC: leslie_alistair@hotmail.com, z.figura12@gmail.com Distribution: ---
Created attachment 70786 --> https://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=70786 log from renoise, yabridge, wine
I'm trying to get d16's Punchbox VST2 running on Arch with wine-staging 6.19 (via the wine-ge-custom package).
All d16 plugins require you to go through an online login prompt through the plugin before you can use it (even for demos) and after you successfully log in, the plugin requires you to close it and restart it. The problem is, on the next restart the plugin asks for the activation credentials again.
This problem is not limited to one DAW, Wine version, or plugin bridge it seems. I have tested this with Renoise and Reaper as VST hosts, with Wine 6.14, and with the yabridge and airwave plugin bridges. I am able to run other Windows VSTs without issue.
The plugin works despite the UI being inaccessible - it responds to midi notes, sounds like it should and and my DAW's VST controllers work (but i can't change presets).
Attached the log from Renoise / Wine after I start the plugin, log in, close it and reinitialize.
