+seh report

Contrarily to the test report, my installation went flawless. When I launch the
game, I get an unhandled exception. After the first attempt I installed DX9 and
the Offscreenrenderingmode, directdrawrenderer and videomemorysize registry
keys, the result remains the same. I have attached a +seh output. Should you
need more, tell me.

New 1.1 +seh log

Tried again to make the game work, this time updated to version 1.1 and with
Wine 1.1.10. The game complained about "Component "mswinsck.ocx" or one of its
dependencies not correctly registered: a file is missing or invalid". I
downloaded the missing file from ocxdump.com, hence fixing this problem. When I
now attempt to load the game, nothing happens; the virtual desktop remains
empty. An updated +seh log is attached.

I have tested it with wine-1.1.12 and the bug still exists there.

Which debug channel could be useful in order to fix this bug?

DIRTY workaround which let cod5 initialize the sound

The attached workaround let cod5 initialize the sound without a crash.
Therefore you need a working XAudio2_0.dll, which also needs some registry
keys. I'll attach the regfile later. With this patch there is no sound in the
game (sound in videos is there - intro)!

regfile, which adds the missing registry keys for XAudio2_0.dll

This regfile adds the registry keys for XAudio2_0.dll, which are needed by
cod5. You also have to copy the XAudio2_0.dll in the windows/system32/
directory. You could get a copy from ms (it should be in the MS DirectX 9 user
redistributable).

I have run:
 - sh winetricks directx9
 - regedit sound.reg (with your attachment in)
 - copied the XAudio2_0.dll to system32
 - patched wine with your patch and compiled

But the error remains the same.

I am using Ubuntu 8.10 (amd64).

My xorg.conf, if it is of any interest.

At least my problem seems to be video related and not audio.

I got the menu of CoD5 running.

Therefore I did:
 - sh winetricks directx9
 - regedit sound.reg
   (sound.reg being this file:
    http://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=18560)
 - patched the current git tree with this patch and
   compiled:
   http://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=18559
 - copied the XAudio2_0.dll from a XP machine into the
   drive_c/windows/system32 directory.

Then I was able to run the menu of CoD5 with the new compiled
wine.

However, if I do: SOLO -> MISSION SELECT -> Semper Fi -> Recruit
to start a new campaign, I am just thrown back to
the Mission Select Menu and nothing more happens.

It seems that my video card is to bad to support CoD5.

That seems the reason why the campaign does not start.

If some users with better hardware could confirm that CoD5 works
this way the entry in the application database can be changed from
GARGABE to something more fitting.

The reason why the campaign did not start was the internet connection.

After closing it the campaign started.
But the game runs very slow.
Don't know if that is wine or hardware related.

Installing directx9 is not necessary any longer.
I got CoD5 running with:
 - regedit sound.reg
   (sound.reg being this file:
    http://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=18560)
 - patched the current git tree with this patch and
   compiled:
   http://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=18559
 - copied the XAudio2_0.dll from a XP machine into the
   drive_c/windows/system32 directory.

Appearently some Windows user have sound problems too, but changing sample rate
do the trick.

This is related to this bug?

This was still present a couple weeks ago when I tried it. Winetricks xact
worked around it, iirc.

does winealsa.drv need to check support of ieee_float since most of the
hardware does not support float except  "pulse" and "plug" plugin

http://www.intel.com/support/motherboards/desktop/sb/cs-020642.htm

32-Bit Playback and Recording
None of Intel's desktop boards support 32-bit audio playback or recording. The
highest sampling resolution available is 24-bit. This is deemed to be
sufficient because popular digital formats like Dolby* and DTS* only support
sampling resolutions of 16-bit to 24-bit. High-end external audio card also
support up to 24-bit sampling resolution only.
