Summary: Victoria 2 demo crashes during load without MaxShadowSize 0 Product: Wine Version: 1.3.1 Platform: x86 OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: directx-dsound AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: scott@open-vote.org
Victoria 2 demo currently crashes on startup due to bug 13297 http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13297
If you workaround it with winetricks d3dx9_36, however, the game will crash during load when it reaches "loading flags" (just after loading sounds).
Setting HKCU/Software/Wine/DirectSound/MaxShadowSize to "0" allows the game to work.

--- Comment #1 from Dan Kegel dank@kegel.com 2010-08-31 00:21:16 CDT --- That's what winetricks dsoundbug9612 does, so maybe this is a dup of bug 9612?

--- Comment #2 from Alexander E. Patrakov patrakov@gmail.com 2011-12-30 00:13:07 CST --- As of commit 663bc476029a3f867c698677f888d778246f4718, wine always behaves as if MaxShadowSize were -1. So please test if the bug is indeed fixed in the latest git or, when it is released, in wine-1.3.36.

--- Comment #3 from GyB gyebro69@gmail.com 2011-12-30 02:08:19 CST --- I've just tried Victoria 2 demo in wine-1.3.35-273-geaa8801 and found that the demo loads to the menu without crashing. Prior to commit 663bc4 the demo crashes. This bug (or was it bug #6912) affected many other strategy games from the publisher Paradox Interactive (e.g. the Europa Universalis series) . The games were crashing during the loading stage, while loading sounds, unless I set MaxShadowSize in the registry. Now, in wine-1.3.35-273-geaa8801 the games are loading correctly.
