...:sigh:... indeed
Confirming for 10.13 commit d74d97cbf87 using shared wow64.
Encyclopedia videos do not play. The game is also very laggy when moving the camera around.
Or as a simple workaround, run the game via steam proton which typically works around video bugs: https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=56614#c23 https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=58492#c9 https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=50277#c32
To enable all video features run steam from command line via this command: steam steam://unlockh264/
Then, once steam is launched via the command above.
To workaround this issue for now: 1. Click LIBRARY at the top left of Steam client 2. Click "+ Add a Game" button at the bottom left 3. Choose "Add a Non-Steam Game" 4. Click Browse and add your games .exe file 5. Click "Add Selected Program" 6. Right click the game .exe file just added to the game list 7. Click Properties in the right-click menu 8. Click Compatibility tab 9. Check mark "Force the use of a specific Steam Play compatibility tool" 10. Choose "Proton Experimental" from the list
Why these workaround solutions are not more commonly recommended by WineHQ is an enigma to me.
Proton uses a different rendering backend that not only fixes the video bugs but also the laggy gameplay when moving the camera around.
I test proton outside of steam but for non-technical users using proton via steam is the easiest point click workaround solution for these types of video/rendering bugs.
This issue should remain open despite the workaround until WineHQ resolves whatever discrepancy that prevents game videos from working for vanilla wine.
