--- Comment #5 from Anders Nylander nylander.anders@yandex.com --- Note that it's possible, with caveats, to start the game when using a Wayland compositor (The hi-res, latest version that is), though this is likely a lucky coincidence of various factors, like Wayland protocol security rules preventing the game from swapping modes, which makes it possible for the game to display the splash screen after the initial video, followed by the game intro, followed by the game menu. There are other rendering bugs that, er, renders the game unplayable in this state, though that's different from this bug.
If however, I enable the virtual desktop feature in winecfg and set it to 640x480 (native game res) then start the game, it crashes immediately when skipping the first intro video. This is the same issue that xzgamertag is running into.
So it's likely related to how the game behaves when swapping between different modes for the purpose of playing videos vs. rendering the splash screen and main menu.
