@Robert: Maybe you just didn't wait long enough for the game to load ;)
All jokes aside...I tried Stronghold 2 and Stronghold:Legends in the Stronghold Collection (Gamersgate version).Both games take more than 2 minutes to show the initial loading screen after clicking <Play> in the launcher.In the meantime no visible window is displayed, the game executable seems to be idling, consuming 5-8% CPU usage. The demo versions don't have this problem. I don't remember having such an issue with those 2 games a couple years ago, when I last tried them, though.
wine-1.7.45-195-gda5151f Fedora 22 32-bit nouveau + Mesa3D (the problem exists with the Nvidia binary drivers 340.76 as well) Xorg 1.17.2 XFCE 4.10 (no compositor)
Yes, yes I did. Sorry for the confusion in this case. I simply did not expect it to show that behavior (especially as the CPU consumption is quite low and I could not see any harddisk activity).
Mh, the question is, if that still is a bug somewhere in Wine or not?
Anyway it seems to be running flawlessly once it has started (for me it's more like 3 minutes, by the way).
