--- Comment #1 from GyB gyebro69@gmail.com 2012-07-22 00:59:58 CDT --- Currently I'm on Fedora 17 so I had to disable winegstreamer to retest this bug (bug #30557). The problem is still present in Wine 1.5.8, temporarily fixed in 1.5.9, but occurs again in git (wine-1.5.9-106-g020a68e).
The commit, which induced problems in several games (bug #31239), somehow fixed the problem in SBK X, and the game was loading to the main menu fine. The fix for bug #31239 reintroduces the problem, and the game is freezing again at the same point in git.
ORM=backbuffer acts as a workaround for the freezing issue, but it causes other problems later in the game.
