Bug ID: 38415 Summary: Switching weapons does not work after dying Product: Wine Version: 1.7.39 Hardware: x86-64 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown Assignee: wine-bugs@winehq.org Reporter: christopher@thielen.co Distribution: ---
Here's a strange one:
Deus Ex works beautifully in Wine but I noticed after I die, beginning a new game and pressing one of the keyboard buttons to switch weapons no longer works as it did.
Wine/Deus Ex registers the key press because the Doom-style weapon switcher at the bottom of the screen registers the new weapon but the game does not actually switch weapons.
Using the same 1.112fm Deus Ex "Game of the Year" edition installer on Windows XP and Windows 8, this bug does not occur, implying there's something fishy with Wine instead.
