Bug ID: 51077 Summary: "The Settlers V: Heritage of Kings" fails to launch with Wine >=5.21 Product: Wine Version: 5.21 Hardware: x86 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown Assignee: wine-bugs@winehq.org Reporter: firlaevhans.fiete@protonmail.com Distribution: ---
Created attachment 69940 --> https://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=69940 Backtrace and Terminal Output
I'm using the German DVD ROM Version of "Die Siedler: Das Erbe der Könige Gold Edition" / "The Settlers: Heritage of Kings" With Wine-staging 5.20 and below the game launches and works as expected. With 5.21-staging or higher (tried various versions up to 6.7) the game fails to launch and shows a Wine crash report window instead.
REPRODUCE: 1.) Install "The Settlers V" in a fresh Wine prefix with wine 5.21 or higher (the free demo will work too) 2.) Try to launch the game afterwards
OBSERVED RESULT: The game doesn't launch / immediately crashes
EXPECTED RESULT: The game launches normally, like it does with older versions of wine.
There is a free demo of the game that shows the same symptoms and thus could be used for testing. The game is quite old so there doesn't seem to be an official download site anymore but I downloaded it from here (German demo): https://www.4players.de/4players.php/download_info/Downloads/Download/7636/D...
