As of wine 2.17, Skyrim now immediately crashes as soon as a key is pressed in
game.

Replication steps:
1. Launch Skyrim
2. Click "Continue" from main menu
3. Wait for game to load...
4. Press the "w" key
5. Skyrim crashes.

The lone error message:

I can't reproduce this; Skyrim works fine on my system in 2.17.

Please run a regression test. https://wiki.winehq.org/Regression_Testing

My system is macOS 10.12.5, with wine set to Windows XP (due to bug 42674). It
happens after loading any Skyrim state.

It also happens with wine set to Windows 7, with the effects of bug 42674.

Does Wine show a crash dialog? If so, save the backtrace from there and attach
it to the bug.

What version of Wine were you using when Skyrim last worked? And, of course,
try to perform the regression test that Rosanne suggested.

No crash dialog or backtrace. The only sign it's crashed, other than the game
window disappearing, is the wine output "err:seh:raise_exception Unhandled
exception code c0000005 flags 0 addr 0xa15ba20f".

Are there any WINEDEBUG options that would reveal more information on the
crash?

The last version it worked on was 2.16, so the regression is very recent.

This might be related to bug 43784

I don't have a machine to run the test on at the moment, but I may in the
future.

Do you want me to run Skyrim with any WINEDEBUG options to pinpoint the error?

Patch to ignore access violations to get a macOS crash report

The best thing would be to do that regression test.

As for logging channels, it's hard to know what useful ones would be with so
few details. A +tid,+relay,+seh log may be informative, but it will be huge and
full of unrelated noise and thus hard to analyze.

Another possible approach is to build with the attached patch applied. It will
make it so that neither Wine nor Skyrim can catch the crash. Instead, macOS
will catch it and generate its own crash report. That crash report may be
informative. On the other hand, the patch may break things so that Steam or
Skyrim no longer even get to the point of the crash we're trying to diagnose.
If that happens, then back it out.

The mystery deepens: the crash doesn't occur with the wine-staging 2.17 I
built, only the normal wine 2.17 I built. And it occurs consistently, between
builds.

Is there any way to activate the +tid,+relay,+seh during the life of a process
(e.g. during the TESV.exe loading, just before the crash occurs)?

It's been a couple years.

@alexchandel did this regression still occur with later versions of wine?
