--- Comment #4 from can-winehq@atesman.at --- Nah, I randomly deleted several files before reporting the issue here ;-)
Just for clarity: these are the exact commands I issued for the installation:
$ export LD_PRELOAD= $ export WINEPREFIX=/mnt/data/wine.hitman3 $ wine setup_hitman3_2.0.0.11.exe
The installation worked flawlessly. At the end, I had the option to launch the game immediately, which I did. The game started, I even played for a while before closing the game. Launching it again failed with the attached output, though:
$ export LD_PRELOAD= $ export WINEPREFIX=/mnt/data/wine.hitman3 $ wine '/mnt/data/wine.hitman3/drive_c/GOG Games/Hitman - Contracts/HitmanContracts.exe'
No further action was performed between the installation and the failing launch.
