Bug ID: 53336 Summary: Silent Hunter 3: Starforce protection issues Product: Wine Version: 7.11 Hardware: x86-64 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown Assignee: wine-bugs@winehq.org Reporter: odecif@gmail.com Distribution: ---
Created attachment 72720 --> https://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=72720 Restart-popup
Installation of the game works fine in both 64 and 32 bit prefixes, but will not start in a 64-bit prefix because it requires Windows 95 through Windows 2000 (error popup says so at least).
When trying to start the game (before or after patch 1.4b, same result in both cases) a starforce-popup appears saying "Application installed successfully. Reboot the computer to complete the installation.Continue?" together with errors in console.
Pressing Yes or No in the "restart"-popup simply closes the popup and nothing else really happens. Trying to start the game again brings the popup back up, but this time there are more errors in console (specifically related to sfsync02, sfhlp02 and sfdrv01) which I believe are StarForce-related issues.
