--- Comment #74 from imaxm memax@gmx.fr --- (In reply to Dreamkey from comment #73)
I tried with wine-staging 10.17 and the EGL renderer. The bug is still there with the xdotool work-around still needed, but worse, the videos are not displaying anymore, only the sound is played (Microids logo and game intro while starting a new game). Not sure if it's related, there is a lot of "libEGL warning: FIXME: egl/x11 doesn't support front buffer rendering." showing in the terminal.
I confirm this separate issue of videos not displaying with wine-10.17. It corresponds to bug 58812, which was fixed by commit 63e6cfa106a0b12351e8d01eb5bfefd925c3a74e https://gitlab.winehq.org/wine/wine/-/commit/63e6cfa106a0b12351e8d01eb5bfefd...
However, the initial problem that is the subject of this bug report has still not been fixed. The workaround remains the same: 'wine Game.exe & xdotool selectwindow windowunmap'
