Bug ID: 40906 Summary: Age of Empires 2 HD is no longer playable after the latest game patch Product: Wine Version: 1.9.13 Hardware: x86 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown Assignee: wine-bugs@winehq.org Reporter: flaviozavan@gmail.com Distribution: ---
Age of Empires 2 HD used to work fine on wine. The appdb page shows a long list of success cases. However, after the last game update, it is unplayable, two different errors occur:
If you try playing a scenario, the game just crashes. If you try a normal single player game, it says "Waiting for players" indefinitely. I did not try multiplayer with this.
I obviously tested this on a clean prefix. I also tried using wine 1.8.2, which was reported successful on the appdb page, and was able to reproduce the bug, so I do not believe this is a regression. The developers provide access to older versions of the game via the steam beta system. If I set mine to patch43 (or older), the game is playable again, which functions as a quick workaround, though it renders multiplayer unlikely.
When looking at the output on the terminal, nothing caught my attention, but I have no idea what debug flags to use. I'll happily provide more information once I know what can be useful.

--- Comment #1 from Flávio Zavan flaviozavan@gmail.com --- OK... I had been fighting this for a few days now, I woke up today, decided to take a quick look at it before breakfast and the game worked. I'm almost sure there was a game update. It's hard to tell as I was reverting from patch43 to default and they never announce minor updates publicly.

--- Comment #2 from super_man@post.com --- You need to provide the backtrace when the crash happens. Also default output from console can indicate the problem.
Currently there is no info. It's impossible to get this fixed without owning the game.

--- Comment #3 from Flávio Zavan flaviozavan@gmail.com --- Yes, I was trying to get a backtrace, but the game updated and on the latest game version (after the bug report, 4.6.919850), I can no longer reproduce the bug.

Yes, I was trying to get a backtrace, but the game updated and on the latest game version (after the bug report, 4.6.919850), I can no longer reproduce the bug.
Then close this as invalid/abandoned. No need to keep bugs open that cant be reproduced anymore.
