Are any overrides being used?
I'm sorry, I'm very new to the whole Wine Linux world. What is meant by overrides? Is this like the DirectX stuff that you install with winetricks?

That's what he was asking, yes - whether you installed anything through winetricks in that prefix.
If you did install things from winetricks, you can check whether the bug is present in a clean prefix by creating a new one and opening the app in it. eg in a command line, `WINEPREFIX=~/new-prefix wine SpinTires.exe`

Ok, Thanks. No, I haven't installed anything under a new prefix for spintires. I added a few things to the default wineprefix like the d3dx9_36 dll.
Do I create the prefix for spintires and then add things into it? If so, which ones should I install for it?
Thanks

When I ran that command I got the contents of the attachment "trace from trying to add wineprefix". http://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=48173

Ok, so I think I've gotten the Wineprefix working. I now get this error when trying to start SpinTires.exe

--- Comment #8 from David Maskell wadsered@gmail.com --- Created attachment 48176 --> http://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=48176 Update #3
I decided to try starting SpinTires from the Terminal without the prefix and this is what I got (in the terminal)

This bug can be closed as INVAID
I disagree. It is still failing for me for some reason. This makes the Bug VALID. Thank-you for your comment though, It shows me that It SHOULD indeed work, but it isn't.
Since I'm new to wine. Which version is vanilla wine?

Well, not necessarily either, more information is needed.

You can check the latest at https://www.winehq.org/, currently it's 1.7.17.
smeely@Maskell-DeLL-M90 ~ $ env wine "/home/smeely/.wine_spintires/drive_c/Program Files/SpinTiresdev/SpinTires.exe"
you need to cd to the directory first.

Thankyou for the unformation. :)
Would cd'ing to the directory do anything differently to what I did above? I fail to see how it would. ANyway.

You shouldn't question people's advice if you don't know how Windows works under the hood. And yes, the working directory makes a _big_ difference for many apps/games. Most apps refuse to start or misbehave if the working directory is wrong.
So do as advised above.

I was asking for more explination of why that works (and clarification on what was being said) so I could build my knowledge. Sorry for making it look like I'm questioning what was being said.
I'll go give it a go.
Anyone able to give me more of an explination of why it works that way or not? Does the programme somehow take part of its requests for files and stuff from the location where the command was run?

After Cd'ing to the directory I get this. in the crash diag and I'll attach bit that shows what the Terminal said.

--- Comment #17 from Anastasius Focht focht@gmx.net --- Hello David,
your backtrace shows the following:
1) you are using a broken/tainted WINEPREFIX:
--- snip --- 00000022 Cobian.exe ... 00000028 cbInterface.exe --- snip ---
Those processes don't belong to SpinTire, they shouldn't be present with a clean (new) WINEPREFIX. Don't install multiple applications/games in same WINEPRFEFIX, this makes bug reports possibly invalid.
If you don't now what WINEPRFEFIX means and how prefix isolation works, please read Wine documentation/wiki or visit WineHQ user forums.
2) you have multiple native overrides set for the prefix.
--- snip --- PE 330000- 337000 Deferred x3daudio1_7 PE 360000- 3ee000 Deferred xaudio2_7 ... PE 10000000-101ff000 Deferred d3dx9_43 --- snip ---
Probably 'winetricks xact' and 'winetricks d3dx9_43' and/or 'winetricks d3dcompiler_43'
See that I said "probably"? That's the problem: I don't know exactly because you didn't tell in the bug report.
You must state _every_ 'winetricks' recipe or whatever action you took besides installing the app/game in the bug report.
3) you are running some developer version of the game/demo
--- snip --- 00000050 (D) Z:\home\smeely.wine_spintires\drive_c\Program Files\SpinTiresdev\SpinTires.exe --- snip ---
You didn't say that explicitly. The first download from the website is the actual game (demo), the second is the Dev(Mod) version.
Anyway, I can't reproduce the crash with Wine 1.7.17 (just like user 'joaopa', comment #9)
You might want to try a newer Wine version and reinstall the game in new WINEPREFIX.
Regards

--- Comment #18 from David Maskell wadsered@gmail.com --- I only installed Cobian last night. They are unrelated to the particular problem, But I will start putting things in different WINEPREFIXES as you say to avoid any other possible crashes and/or confusions.
This is the default wineprefix, and Yes. I have installed those overrides as part of trying to get SpinTires working. Not sure about the d3dcompiler_43. I could easily check though.
I don't know exactly what I need to say. I knew my report was extremely vague at the start and was hoping someone like you would help me figure out what to add and what to remove from the report when I write it.
I do appologise for that. I started with just the game Demo version, (which is linked), but then partway through I switched versions (as I couldn't be bothered keeping installing, uninstalling, etc, etc.
When I try and run the game in a new WINEPREFIX it says I need to install xaudio and something else, I forget what. Can't exactly say I've figured out how to install those components to a specific wineprefix yet...
Ok, I shall just take it that my computer is corrupt and is trying to screw me over. And give up on it. (since I can't get on with anyone here either) Thanks for the help anyway and I'll be sure to remember what you guys have said. :)
