Summary: Keyboard not working in "Hype - The Time Quest" Product: Wine Version: unspecified Platform: x86 URL: http://www.megagames.com/download/hypedemo.exe OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: directx-dinput AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: cvoeten@gmail.com
This is a very ancient game (1999), that up until now has not worked (bug #22434). Now that I have gotten it to launch, I've come to notice that the keyboard is not working. This happens in both the full version and in the demo which can be downloaded here: http://www.megagames.com/download/hypedemo.exe (it's a self-extracting zip archive, just extract the files somewhere, then run setup.exe, ignore the errors, the game executable is MaiD3Dvr_bleu.exe).
Since I /believe/ the game uses dinput, I've attached a WINEDEBUG=+dinput trace. (and I did press the down button a few times after starting the game, which did not move the menu selection down (that's the problem)). To my untrained eye it looks like the keyboard events are received, but are somehow not being fed to the application?
Installing MS DirectX (yes, full DirectX) via winetricks does not help.
