Hello everyone,

this might be related to bugs 14782 and 14911 and I am having problems getting
the Drakensang demo to run.

I got the demo from the following URL:
http://www.gamestar.de/spiele/das-schwarze-auge-drakensang/downloads/das_sch...

The debugger starts but generates no backtrace.

Even though no backtrace is generated, what about the terminal output?

Could be related to bug 38610, do you have the crash dialog disabled / can you
try reverting that commit?

Google for that XACT error message and enjoy the read (mostly german forums).

That's another Wine insufficiency, see bug 24038 for explanation.

Drakensang Console output after launching the game in wine 2.8

I took another look at the demo today using 2.8 (no staging-Patchset). The demo
version now starts up without any problems.

I am still attaching my console output which I got after starting the demo.

All default the game starts with no issues, then I set all dlls builtin and it
doesn't start anymore.

err:module:import_dll Library X3DAudio1_4.dll (which is needed by L"C:\Program
Files\Drakensang - DEMO\drakensang.exe") not found

That can be skipped overriding the dll, then it seems to fail

fixme:d3dx:D3DXCreateTeapot (0x186b70, 0x32b2ebc, (nil)): stub

There is a popup message that createteapot failed.

wine 2.8. I can't see the original issue.

Actually the teapot seems to be bug 36884. And with the override and with the
patch it seems to fail then

fixme:d3dx:d3dx9_line_OnResetDevice iface 0x1a65c8 stub!

It gives another popup message and doesnt run.

Console output from Installation (wine 3.13)

Hello everyone,

I am revisiting this old bug with openSUSE Tumbleweed and wine 3.13. The game
now installs fine and can be launched without any problems. I am attaching
output from installing and running the game anyway.

The game runs a bit slow with the nouveau driver but the demo can definetely be
started. Closing and marking as fixed is fine with me and I would like to thank
you all for paying attention to this bug.

Kind regards,

Maik

Fixed by "xactengine3_1: New DLL."
https://source.winehq.org/git/wine.git/?a=commit;h=a87a889dca024f1af6a1c5475...

"xactengine3_7: Return valid HRESULT from IXACT3Engine Initialize."

https://source.winehq.org/git/wine.git/?a=commit;h=47a5de3438a30dbcc5a729e34...

Some sounds still may not work, as FAudio doesn't have support for the
xactengine 3.1 format.  For me, at least the game starts.
