Bug ID: 56990 Summary: Implement "getdfDIJoystick" Product: Wine Version: unspecified Hardware: x86-64 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: minor Priority: P2 Component: -unknown Assignee: wine-bugs@winehq.org Reporter: EpicTux123@proton.me Distribution: ---
Created attachment 76823 --> https://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=76823 "getdfDIJoystick" message
Hello.
I am using Wine from GloriousEggroll's Proton version 9.10.
Playing L.A. Noire (Rockstar Games game) with V-Patch modification. When the game launches, a message box with "getdfDIJoystick" appears. Clicking OK makes the game launch as normal.
I don't know what this is for, but I believe a dummy "getdfDIJoystick" could be implemented so it "passes" the check.
This only happens via Wine/Proton, and does not happen in native Windows (according to other users). I don't have a Windows machine to test.
I did not test this with "pure" Wine, but I believe this is a Wine issue rather than a Proton issue.
I'll leave a screenshot attached.
INFORMATION/LINKS OS: Fedora Linux 40 Game: https://store.steampowered.com/app/110800/LA_Noire/ Proton used: https://github.com/GloriousEggroll/proton-ge-custom/releases/tag/GE-Proton9-... V-Patch modification: https://github.com/VaanaCZ/LANVP
ADDITIONAL CONTEXT The author of V-Patch is currently remaking the mod to use Ultimate ASI Loader (see https://github.com/VaanaCZ/LANVP/issues/26), so the problem of "getdfDIJoystick" should go away, but I think it would be nice to implement this in Wine anyway (even if it is a dummy check).
WINEDLLOVERRIDES="dinput8=n,b" is necessary to make the patch work.
Thanks for your attention.
