+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #10185 +++
AOE3 should not freeze at start of a new game after only a couple of clicks on characters.
I installed AOE3 (probably 1.12 version or more recent) following the howto instruction found in AppDB). As the installation process could not be pursued until its end, I had to copy an existing AOE3 file structure from a Windows XP to my ubuntu drive. I also used a nocd fix (one for 1.12 version). I could then launch the game (wine age3.exe), see and hear the intro cinematics, use the main menu and start a new game (1st as well as 2nd tutorial). I could see the background and first units and move the screen around. But I could not click more than twice anywhere (especially when clicking on a unit for selecting it). The game would freeze and error messages would be displayed in the console. Than aoe3 dies. See attachment.

I hit this bug myself a few days ago. The problem is that wined3d calls gdi functions while holding the x11drv log, which leads to a deadlock. The patch fixes the specific case that breaks aoe3.

--- Comment #3 from Jean Jean.Emploi@free.fr 2007-11-13 18:09:37 --- Note I was able to solve this Age of Empires 3 issue by doing this: - better following the howto instructions (initially: I had not been running the installer while being located in the proper directory, now I cd to the directory where CD files have been copied then I do "wine autorun.exe" and the installation is smoother and maybe more complete) - installing 2 DLLs (quartz.dll and mscft.dll): copy to windows\system32, then regsvr32 them then declaration in wincfg - adding appropriate registry entries
Now my game runs fine with wine. Im happy. :)
Anyway, maybe this issue lets you identify some more fundamental bug/weakness since I see Stefan proposed a fix for something. I will not be able to test this fix though.
Should this bug be marked as FIXED?
