Bug ID: 37332 Summary: Cannot run Rome Total War (installed / run from Steam) Product: Wine Version: 1.7.25 Hardware: x86-64 OS: Mac OS X Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: major Priority: P2 Component: -unknown Assignee: wine-bugs@winehq.org Reporter: winebugz.20.dllahr@xoxy.net
Created attachment 49642 --> https://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=49642 output from running wine
Brief version: I'm using wine 1.7.25 compiled from sources on a Mac probook running OS X 10.9.5. I was able successfully install and run Steam, log in to my Steam account, and have Steam download and install Rome Total War. When I attempt to run Rome Total War (either through the Steam interface or through the command line - which still calls Steam), I have managed to get it to display the initial screen, but then it either hangs (most of the time) or crashes. I tried running in a virtual desktop mode, no change in behavior.
More info: I previously installed wine 1.6.2 using HomeBrew. Prior to compiling wine 1.7.25, I used HomeBrew to check for / install listed dependencies. I'm using WINEPREFIX=/opt/no_backup/wine
Side note: I was able to get the game working on an ubuntu system running on virtualbox on this same Mac, however the performance was very slow - the mouse response was very, very slow.
