[Bug 32524] New: mmdevdrv assertion failure on FarCry3 loading screen

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=32524

Bug #: 32524
           Summary: mmdevdrv assertion failure on FarCry3 loading screen
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.5.18
          Platform: x86-64
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown
        AssignedTo: [e-mail]
        ReportedBy: [e-mail]
    Classification: Unclassified

When playing FarCry 3, my wine crashes with the following assertion failure:

xe: mmdevdrv.c:534: pulse_wr_callback: Assertion `oldpad >= This->pad' failed.
wine: Assertion failed at address 0xf7753425 (thread 0039), starting
debugger...

So far, this has happened every time at the same loading screen (3/3) but not
on other loading screens. The loading screen in question is the first one in
the middle of the mission to pirate cove.

Are you using winepulse by any chance? I don't see this function in wine tree.
If so it's an unsupported configuration.

You are correct, I was using wine from an Ubuntu PPA which was using winepulse.

I tried the same with a vanilla wine 1.5.17 compiled some time ago from git.
The game crashes at the same spot, though this time without the assertion of
course.  The error reads:

wine: Unhandled page fault on write access to 0x00000000 at address 0x78aa1ed7
(thread 0045), starting debugger...

I tried running the game with the latest wine from git, but I cannot get it to
start. It seems like the game tries to use DX11 with the latest wine which is
not fully implemented yet.

wine: Call from 0x7b83b452 to unimplemented function
d3d11.dll.D3D11CreateDevice, aborting

Is there a way I can force the game to use DX9? There is a dedicated executable
for DX11 but none for DX9, so I guess there is some auto detection going on by
the game.

Yes, it's not implemented at all.

Some users report it works if you disable d3d11 in winecfg.

Thank you, this indeed makes it possible to run the game with the latest wine
from git. Might I ask where you got this information from? I could find no
mention of it in the AppDB when I looked there myself.

Sadly, the game still crashes at the same spot, now with another message
however. I get a lot of these right before the game crashes:

mmap() failed: Cannot allocate memory

I don't think I ran out of memory (I have 8GB) so I guess there is some other
issue that is causing this crash.

Is this still an issue in current (1.7.35 or newer) wine? If so, please attach
terminal output.

I can no longer reproduce the problem with the newest wine from git, so it
seems the issue is resolved.

Thanks to the unknown developer who fixed this issue :)
