[Bug 14058] New: Heroes of Might and Magic 5: Crash at startup

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14058

Summary: Heroes of Might and Magic 5: Crash at startup
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.0.0
          Platform: PC-x86-64
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown
        AssignedTo: [e-mail]
        ReportedBy: [e-mail]

Wine 1.0 & PlayonLinux 3.0.6

The install goes fine,
When attempting to load the game from the PlayOnLinux menu, the desktop shows
in black, and vanishes after 5-10 seconds.

However, when I tried to load the game in the PlayOnLinux debugger with this
command : "wine H5_Game.exe", the game started normally.

Is this a bug related to PlayonLinux or Wine? It is confusing since both apps
do work together, and technically the run command in POL means "wine <name of
game.exe>

Fixed, acccording to this post, you need to edit the shortcut in POL. This is
not a WINE issue. I will still leave the correction key in case anybody needs
it, and it can be potentially useful for any other games which have the same
issue.

In the .playonlinux/configuration/installed directory, you will find all your
shortcuts.

With the text editor, change this last line

wine "/home/eguibs/.PlayOnLinux/wineprefix/Heroes Myth and Magic
V/drive_c/Program Files/Ubisoft/Heroes of Might and Magic V/bin/H5_Game.exe" $@

to this

wine "./H5_Game.exe" $@

The game runs now, with the same issues with cursors and maps which were
already reported.
