Bug #: 33022 Summary: Starship Titanic hanging on video replay Product: Wine Version: 1.5.6 Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: norbert@preining.info Classification: Unclassified
Hi everyone,
I have recently installed Starship Titanic, updated it to the latest version 40c and tried to run it with both wine 1.4.1 and 1.5.6 on Debian/unstable x86_64 linux.
In both cases I suspect that some video playback is the problem, reasons for this are: - when entering the CD into the drive, on the screen of the computer in the game a short sequence of the logo of the game should appear. But here the game continues without problem. - when entering into the elevator, a black box appears in the middle of the screen, here should be the bot speaking to me. The outer border of the game screen is present, but the box in the middle remains black.
Unfortunately at the second stage the game hangs, due to the fact that one has to interact with the elevator.
The last lines of the terminal output before Ctrl-C ing out are err:iccvid:decode_cinepak CVID: corruption 0 (QT/AVI) != 5767508 (CV) err:iccvid:decode_cinepak CVID: strip overflow (more than 32) (many of these).
Concerning cinepak: It is known that newer libraries of the cinepak dll do not work with the game. From the web site of the game (FAQ), which is luckily still online: Yes! Or rather, yes, it works until you install Service Pack 2, which upgrades the Cinepak® Codec to a special non-working version.
The solution is to download Cinepak version 1.10.0.11
So it might be that the bug is related to too new cinepak libraries.
On my VirtualBox WinXP machine I got it running without problems, but I had to install the correct version of the cinepak dll into the ST directory.
This I also did on the wine game, without success.
I have also run the game with wine 1.4.1 WINEDEBUG=+relay,+seh,+tid, but that created a 1.6G (!) file of output, so no way that I can share that.
Any other information I could provide?
Thanks
Norbert
