Summary: Fonts corrupted or missing characters Product: Wine Version: unspecified Platform: x86 OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: minor Priority: P3 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: default_357-line@yahoo.de
When playing Alien Swarm, one of the in-game fonts usually exhibits some degree of corruption; by which I mean that characters are either not rendered or only their bounding box is. The character still takes up space. The degree of damage varies from start to start, and may vary in a single session. The nature of the damage also varies, although disappearing glyphs are the most common symptom.
A similar effect has been observed in Dawn of War: Dark Crusade.
I'm using fglrx from ati-drivers 10.4; I also tried 10.7 and it made no difference.
I tried resetting .wine; no difference.
I tried removing /usr/share/fonts via chroot/symlink hax; no difference.
I screwed with UseFastTLS in xorg.conf; no difference.
I tried wine 1.1 and 07-30-10 git head .. no difference.
I'm quite simply out of ideas.

--- Comment #3 from default_357-line@yahoo.de 2010-07-31 21:46:55 --- Hm. I think there may be different bugs in play here. I'm getting the same issue in GalCiv2 suddenly; for some reason Alien Swarm refuses to start up so I can't verify if it's still present.

Second, I can confirm the Alien Swarm issue does, in fact, persist in 1.3.0.

interesting part is near the "err:d3d_surface:surface_set_texture_name Surface has SFLAG_INTEXTURE set, but no texture name", which doesn't happen when the bug doesn't appear (such as in a game where you are the host).

also texts in menu, mission log, objectives etc are all okay, i've never seen this bug.
I didn't test on standard 1.3 or 1.2; i upgraded from 1.2rc directly to 1.3git and tried AS just on 1.3git.
Maybe it got fixed in the git. Someone else, please try.

IIRC this is a somewhat recent regression, and e.g. 10.4 should work fine.

new one should be opened, since reason why it does that is different on SC2, just the effect is same.
