Bug ID: 47644 Summary: Champions Online error reporter can't be closed and notification icon often can't be interacted with Product: Wine Version: 4.13 Hardware: x86-64 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: minor Priority: P2 Component: -unknown Assignee: wine-bugs@winehq.org Reporter: faalagorn@gmail.com Distribution: ---
When playing Champions Online through Steam (but I guess the issue would appear when playing through Arc Games / without a launcher as well) the game sometimes crashes (on Wine it's most often when trying to drag an item after playing the game for a while, which causes a glowing outline that crashes a game to cause a crash, but the game is often unstable even on Windows).
Crashing causes CrypticError.exe to appear with icon in notification area (which sometimes isn't visible) a balloon notification about gathering system data to appear which eventually closes, and error window with a place to write details as well as Cancel and Submit buttons. However, the notification icon (or rather an empty place from it) often stays open in the taskbar and can't be closed other than killing CrypticError.exe or even the whole wine prefix (in Steam that results in game still "Running").
To cause a crash, it's easier to try to launch the game with D9VK or switch renderer in troubleshooting section of video options to DX11 and play the game for a while with DXVK then try to drag item which will result in game crash.
The game is free to play and can be downloaded on Steam or through publisher's website.
That issue was consistently happennig for at least three different computers running different wine versions and having different software (WM/DE etc.) installed.
I last tested with wine-staging 4.13.g010c308a but the issue was consistently happening for almost a year now (along with the crashing issue, but that might be related to DXVK or game bug), I can retest with the latest master though.
