[Bug 16822] New: Mass Effect: Mouse input does not work (almost completely)

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16822

Summary: Mass Effect: Mouse input does not work (almost
                    completely)
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.1.12
          Platform: PC-x86-64
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: directx-dinput
        AssignedTo: [e-mail]
        ReportedBy: [e-mail]

Running Mass Effect the mouse is not working properly. In menu, there are no
"onMouseOver" or "onMouseClick" actions - keyboard navigation works well.
During gameplay the mouse clicking works well, but the mouse movement does not.
It is not a problem of mouse warping, the game does not react to mouse
movements at all.

I have tried combination of turning on/off full-screen, virtual desktop, "allow
mouse leaving" and "MouseWarpOverride". Nothing works.

It looks like the mouse action (clicks) specific to some location are not
working (button clicking), but mouse actions not related to some screen area
works - mouse wheel zooming in map screen, select sentence during dialogs....

For me the mouse in this game even cannot select sentences in dialogs, but
buttons and wheel work.

Same as above, cannot use the mouse in any way whatsoever, thus making the game
unplayable. I also have all the xinput dlls and it's not helping. Hoping for a
resolution asap.

Once I install directx9 through winetricks and use the native dinput8.dll, the
mouse movement mostly works. It now exhibits the symptoms of mouse bug 6971,
with mouse movement affected by the mouse cursor leaving the window.

(From update of attachment 19267)
  Mouse works correctly in game and in menu after applying the patch
to Wine 1.1.14 and using the native dinput8.dll. This patch is a variant
of the patch from "http://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=11737"
(it virtualizes mouse pointer, see bug #6971) and changes only
"winex11.drv.so". This is, obviously, a temporal workaround because
the patch breaks mouse movements in some other games (TES3:Morrowind,
for example).
  But there is a method to avoid this breaking and use the improved
version for Mass Effect exclusively. One have to install the original
Wine, then recompile the patched "winex11.drv.so", rename it
to "winex11.drv" and place it into the "Bioware/Mass Effect/Binaries"
directory.

This patch seems to work just fine for Mass Effect, so long as the game is not
in windowed mode as set ingame. That said, virtual desktop mode under wine
seems to work fine too. The mouse is still a little sluggish at the screen
edges, but it's not a big deal. Also the mouse is invisible within winecfg
while using the version of wine with the mousehack. All in all, very good job,
and thank you.

I'd really like to see this patch make it into GIT at least, so people don't
have to go about patching wine in order to play Mass Effect and other Unreal
engine games.

It is necessary to note that I am not the author of this patch.
But the original patch "http://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=11737"
sent by Vitaliy Margolen in 2007 cannot be applied to Wine 1.1.14,
so I made small corrections.

Patch causes crashes after moving the mouse for a few seconds with wine 1.1.19
and wine 1.1.20.Can this patch be fixed to work properly with these versions?

The idea behind the patch has few major flaws... One of them a dead lock
waiting for the wrapped mouse event (do..while loop in get_coords(). That's
probably what are you seeing.

Still an issue with wine v1.1.42 and ME v1.02.

There's a patch/hack that does a nice job of clearing the mouse troubles up @
http://bugs2.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=25097. Just add 'force-box' under
DirectInput->MouseWarpOverride after applying the patch and rebuilding wine.

it certainly works for me using wine-1.1.43 and the steam version of mass
effect.

could you please try to do a regression test and post its result in bugzilla as
a new bug report?

Wine 1.1.34 Mousewarp Force-Box Hack (still works on 1.3.9)

I just applied the attached patch to 1.3.9, which was originally written by
someone else (I don't know who) as a hack on top of MouseWarpOverride for bug
6971. The patch still works in 1.3.9, and it seems to fix this bug also, when
MouseWarpOverride is set to "force-box" using wine builtin dinput8. The only
abnormality is that it takes a lot of effort to rotate the camera even when
mouse sensitivity is set to max, but I don't know how this compares to native
behavior.

Is it possible that this bug is really a duplicate of bug 6971, but just has
different symptoms due to some quirk on Mass Effect's part? If so, then the
recent patch using xi2 might also work (I can't test it myself; xi2 isn't
available on my platform yet).

It seems to be a bit different to bug 6971. The xinput2 patch does nothing for
this game, but it works for every other unreal engine anything game that I've
tried it on, so I really don't understand.

The recent patches to the mouse issues in wine (see Alexandre's commits in

Mouse works fine for me with 1.3.20. 
If I alt-tab it sometimes looses focus and leaves window, but you can just tab
few times and click window to make it work again.

Regarding Frontlines 1.00 (UT3 mod), mouse isn't working at all ingame
I found out, that the mouse is handled like this:

mouse_init();

...

while(1){

dinput:IDirectInputDevice2WImpl_SetCooperativeLevel( DISCL_FOREGROUND|
DISCL_NONEXCLUSIVE )

input:SysMouseWImpl_Acquire <- queue is cleaned here !

dinput:IDirectInputDevice2WImpl_GetDeviceData  <- queue is empty, return
nothing

dinput:LL_hook_proc calling  <- mouse hook, fills the queue
dinput:dinput_mouse_hook 
dinput:queue_event

dinput:SysMouseWImpl_Unacquire

}

The basic problem is, that SysMouseWImpl_Acquire() clears the queue AND the
mouse hook is processed after IDirectInputDevice2WImpl_GetDeviceData() every
time.

In dinput/device.c : 
HRESULT WINAPI IDirectInputDevice2WImpl_Acquire(LPDIRECTINPUTDEVICE8W iface)
uncommenting this lines fixes the problem, the game is working fine

//This->queue_head = This->queue_tail = This->overflow = 0;

better solution would be getting the mouse hook processed AFTER
SysMouseWImpl_Acquire() and BEFORE IDirectInputDevice2WImpl_GetDeviceData() is
called.

Mouse input is not fixed for me in git. I do not know what kind of override you
are using, but I strongly doubt that this is actually fixed.

My comments earlier were for Mac. The dirty hack I posted should work on Wine
1.3.11 and earlier. After 1.3.11 a lot of changes were made to the mouse code
and that patch no longer works. If you want detailed instructions on how to do
that feel free to email me.

Still present with 1.3.23 (and can still be fixed by installing dinput8 with
winetricks).

Despite all the dinput8 work for 1.3.24 the bug is still present.

It sounds like this bug is the same as in Blacksite Area 51.
In the menu, the mouse works fine, but during the gameplay, the mouse movement
does not work although mouse clicks fire the weapon.

The games seems to work fine in all other respects.

Any suggestions as to how I can verify if this is the same bug (before I attach
the bug to the App in the AppDB)?

The workaround for this bug is to download winetricks and run 'winetricks
dinput8' in the console. You might also need to fiddle with the libraries tab
in winecfg (add dinput8 and see if any of the options do anything to help it).

Will do, thanks.

Blacksite Area 51 is a UT engine game.
Fixing this issue will likely fix a lot of games based on that technology.

It's actually an Unreal Engine 3 (UE3) game. All other Unreal Engine versions
are not affected. Also, being picky about the name comes from the fact that I
often develop mods on those engines :)

Did you actually test this in a recent version of Wine? If so, please state
what Wine version and version of dinput8 from what version of winetricks was
used. This workaround was not adequate the last time I tested it several
versions back.

I haven't tested it since 1.3.20 (with the latest winetricks at the time),
since it is quite pointless to try and get the game working given bugs #24561
and #7411.

The workaround works with at least 1.3.28 (last time I played ME). The
installation must have happened around the time comment #33 was posted. And
1.3.24 would fall into my definition of "several versions back".
As I update winetricks before each usage, the winetricks version should have
been the one available when comment #33 was posted.

I'm not affected by the bugs mentioned there, as I play ME with the Gallium3D
driver (7.12-devel) r600g.

For Blacksite Area 51, I was using cutting edge git as of a couple of days ago
and seeing the problem.

Yes, sorry I should have been more specific.

I successfully run other earlier Unreal Tech-based games with no problems.

It's a dinput bug. Looking into it. Should have few patches fixing the problem
soon.

Blacksite Area 51 now has mouse control. Yay!

However, shame I've now lost in-game sound :(
