Viper Racing: Wine terminal output, backtrace and error message

Hi

I tried to run a game called "Viper Racing", but Wine has problems with the
game's copy protection. The copy protection does not detect the game CD, which
is already inserted, and prevents the game from starting up.

Are you sure? IIRC, 1.2.3 was a beta patch that explicitly disabled any copy
protection. Never had any problem about it. Have you tried passing the
"-nocanary" flag? Be sure to put RACE.BIN in the right folder, too.

Not really. Running Viper Racing 1.2.3 beta on Windows Vista needs a game CD
inserted.
There is a No-CD crack available for 1.2.3 beta, but it doesn't work.
> Have you tried passing the "-nocanary" flag?

No, don't know what you mean.

The patched RACE.BIN is placed in the "Data" folder.

Is it possible that there are different 1.2.3 beta patches out there?
Can you send me your 1.2.3 beta patch for testing?

Please upgrade to wine-1.3.32, and install debug symbols. Attach complete
terminal output (start to finish) if problem persists.

Hello,

please generate log using following recipe ...

Make sure no Wine processes/services are running prior:

$ wineserver -k

"cd" to game install folder (in your WINEPREFIX)

Start the game as follows:

$ WINEDEBUG=+tid,+seh,+relay wine "./Viper Racing.exe" >>log.txt 2>&1

Attach the resulting "log.txt" (compress with 'bzip2 -9' if too large).

Regards

If Wine doesn't detect the media automagically (missing hal, udisk) you need to
setup a drive letter for your cdrom manually.
Use "winecfg" to add a drive, e.g. "d:", type "cdrom" pointing to your media
mount point.

I suspect there is no copy protection issue here.

Drive letter D: is set to "/dev/sr0" in winecfg. I changed it to "cdrom", but
same problem.

then attach another log generated the same way as comment #5
Make sure to delete existing "log.txt" (logging in append mode).

Additionally paste the output of:

it just disables any safedisc related check, the game still require the data to
be read from the cdrom.

By the way, just tried on wine  1.3.32, and I can't replicate such behaviour.
The CD is correctly detected, but still fails as in
http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12829.

This is incorrect. It should point to CD-ROM mount point, not the device. The
d:: should point to the device. Ex:
d: -> /meida/game
d:: -> /dev/sr0

It doesn't work with "/dev/sr0" or "cdrom".

What is content of ~/.wine/dosdevices directory (run ls -la
~/.wine/dosdevices).

Have you read comment #4 and comment #13?

Once again for you (i won't write it again):

1. Same problem with Wine version 1.3.31 or 1.3.32
2. It doesn't work with mount point "/dev/sr0"

/dev/sr0 is not a mount point. It's a device corresponding to your cdrom drive.

Example of mounted CD:
$mount | grep sr0
/dev/sr0 on /media/openSUSE-DVD-x86_64.0702..001 type iso9660
(ro,nosuid,nodev,relatime,uid=1000,gid=100,iocharset=utf8,mode=0400,dmode=0500,uhelper=udisks)
$ls -la ~/.wine/dosdevices

FYI: The "copy protection" of Viper Racing is pretty primitive: The game tries
to read the UPC/EAN code from the CD TOC* and compares it to the correct value.

There is no SafeDisc/SecuROM etc. involved, but the game has to use some low
level functions (maybe for CD Audio, maybe ASPI) to get to the information it
is looking for.

*) The TOC lists the tracks on a Compact Disc, it has nothing do to with an ISO
file system and its directories.
