Summary: Discworld Noir: segfault crash regression upon startup Product: Wine Version: 1.1.1 Platform: PC OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: ntdll AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: drakh@spamcop.net CC: jon_p_griffiths@yahoo.com
Discworld Noir crashes due to a segmentation fault upon attempting to run the game. It will change screen resolution and black the screen, but fails before displaying the "Loading" graphic. This is a regression, caused by the following commit (assuming I did the regression test correctly):
1ad733e4e0a589bf2713121cf12c3cbf57799608 is first bad commit commit 1ad733e4e0a589bf2713121cf12c3cbf57799608 Author: Jon Griffiths jon_p_griffiths@yahoo.com Date: Fri Jun 20 00:19:09 2008 -0700

Before this, it would load and let you start a new game, before crashing with another segmentation fault after playing the intro. There is a report in the AppDB that the game was fully playable with WINE 0.9.59, though I've been unable to replicate that.

--- Comment #2 from Juho Salo jpe.salo@gmail.com 2008-07-20 16:03:56 --- I would not wholly agree. While the game does crash before you can actually play, this happens after clicking the NEW GAME-button and watching the intro (the detective being chased and killed).
In case someone needs help getting that far, these are the problems I encountered and how I got around them; 1. It asks for CD 2 but does not reconize it. I swapped the installation folder to C:\Discworld Noir and then tried again. It worked, dunno if it was "try again" or swapping the folder..
2. The resolution went screwy. Fixed that from WINE properties.
3. NO-CD was mentioned but I got as far as I got even without it. I installed it though, and it still worked.

--- Comment #3 from drakh drakh@spamcop.net 2008-07-20 17:11:42 --- Juho, I'm guessing you're using Wine 1.0 or eariler? As I noted in the bug description, what you're describing how far the game would get before the regression in Wine 1.1.0 that this bug is about. That is a different, though quite possibly related bug, and it will have to be tackled after this one is fixed.

--- Comment #4 from Juho Salo jpe.salo@gmail.com 2008-07-21 04:53:17 --- Yeah, Wine 1.0. I'm doing a slow Ubuntu update-cycle. (I wrote what I wrote quite tired, and forgot to check what's the latest Wine-version.)
Funny how the game apparently worked fine around 0.9.x

I've taken it back to 0.9.58 and still no luck. I'm going to attempt to contact the tester who got it working, and possibly take it back even further to try and get it working.

Huh? The commit was made on the 23rd of June, between 1.0 (17th) and 1.1.0 (27th). It was not the first commit of any version. And I've run the regression test twice now, and there's a clear change in the game's behavior after that patch, causing it to crash upon startup rather than well into the intro.
I've taken it back to 0.9.58 and still no luck.
Not even the company logos and intro? Are you sure you've got everything setup up correct and aren't running afoul of the game's copy protection or something?

--- Comment #7 from Peter Belm peterbelm@gmail.com 2008-09-28 08:10:33 --- Sorry, made a bit of an assumption there (it was late, been running regression tests all night, lol)
That is strange, I'm seeing the same segfault again and again. I'm using a no-cd crack (the original .exe has another error that I'm going to report later anyway), perhaps it's corrupted or something. Could you link me to the crack you are using?

I haven't experienced any other Wine related errors (though I think it was a bit particular about where it wanted to be installed and which letter the CD-ROM drive should have etc.). And while I believe I did install a no-CD patch after the first regression test, that was only for convenience. As long as it finds the CD, it runs the same as with the patch.
Are you using a clean .wine dir? What distro are you using (I'm on Ubuntu 8.04.1)? Have you checked your copy on Windows to see if it works as it should there?
Could you link me to the crack you are using?
I'll dig it out and email it to you later.

--- Comment #9 from Peter Belm peterbelm@gmail.com 2008-09-28 11:28:35 --- I'm using Ubuntu 8.04.1 as well. My procedure for regression testing was:
Compile Completely delete testing Wine prefix Recreate testing prefix (wineboot) Symlink Discworld Noir directory into drive_c Restore .reg file to registry (contains only Discworld related keys) Test
In case something was wrong with this, I went back to the commit just before 1ad733e, completely deleted the prefix, recreated it by running winecfg, set Windows version to 95 (I'd previously been testing on XP which was probably the problem), completely reinstalled from CD, yet still when using the original .exe I get a different problem. I'll attach the output, please can you confirm if you get the same problem?
However, now when running with the no-cd, I do get as far as the end of the intro movie! :D
I can confirm 1ad733e4e0a589bf2713121cf12c3cbf57799608 is the bad commit.

Nope, I am unable to replicate that error. Followed your procedure (chose Typical Install), but the game loads and runs until the segfault crash at the end of the intro movie as installed.

Tahnks. :) Can you vote for it too, so that it'll get flagged as confirmed?

--- Comment #15 from Michael Abbott michael@araneidae.co.uk 2009-04-11 13:34:17 --- I can confirm this bug, on Ubuntu 8.10, wine 1.1.18, ATI drivers.
The start menu offers three entries, RESUME GAME, NEW GAME and OPTIONS. Clicking on either RESUME GAME or OPTIONS causes an immediate crash (well, there's a pause of a couple of seconds, enough for the sound to loop a couple of times), clicking on NEW GAME causes a crash after the startup video.
I had the same problem before and after installing the no cd crack.
The only message is a segmentation fault report.

Since upgrading from Ubuntu 8.04 to 8.10 I'm no longer able to reproduce this bug on any of the previously affected Wine versions. The game still segfaults, but now it happens after the intro, as before the regression.
We can mark this one fixed then if the reported crash due to the regression is no longer present.
Please file a new bug for the next crash.
