[Bug 35147] New: Audiosurf: Quest3D error on startup

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=35147

Bug ID: 35147
           Summary: Audiosurf: Quest3D error on startup
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.7.8
          Hardware: x86
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown
          Assignee: [e-mail]
          Reporter: [e-mail]
    Classification: Unclassified

Since most issues that are related to Audiosurf not loading are closed, except
for the one that's unconfirmed, I'll submit a new one. Whenever I try to load
Audiosurf from Steam, I get this error that says "Unable to load startup
channelgroup". The file in question is "start - project loader.cgr". This
appeared when I upgraded to wine 1.7.8 from 1.7.7 because of Steam. I also
tried running the game under a clean wine prefix (The one I use often isn't so
clean.), but I reach the same error. Reverting to Wine 1.6 lets the game loader
to start, but Steam is needed to play the game. Let me know if I need to do
anythig else, like regression tests.

Wine Version: 1.7.8
Operating System: Kubuntu 12.04.3

Please attach the terminal output.

A regression test would be helpful, if it actually is a regression..you'll have
to workaround the steam login bug though. Assuming you know the basics of
compiling wine, try:
$ git reset --hard wine-1.6
$ git show fd65b0a1c3f5f981cc110ca9e6a0edb6323e1296 | patch -p1
$ ./configure && make -j4
$ cd /path/to/steam && ~/wine-git/wine steam.exe

if that works, do:
$ git bisect start
$ git bisect good wine-1.6
$ git bisect bad wine-1.7.8
$ git show fd65b0a1c3f5f981cc110ca9e6a0edb6323e1296 | patch -p1
$ ./configure && make -j4

Test Audiosurf here...after testing, BEFORE running git bisect, do:
$ git checkout -f
$ git bisect good/bad

repeat the git show, make, git checkout, git bisect steps until you have found
the bad commit.

I'll be honest. I've never really compiled wine before. I'll just follow the
instructions from the WineHQ wiki for compiling, then follow your instructions
from there. This might take a while because 1. I'm starting finals week at the
school I'm at, and 2. I'm doing this in a Virtual machine with the same OS as
what I use, so I'm setting that up. Why? Because I'm not willing to mess with
my everyday system. I'll reply when I've done that and/or when a new wine
release happens, and I try running audiosurf on that.

I see this in the demo, confirming:

I'll run a bisect (it works in 1.6 with the backported patch).

Without terminal output I can't say for sure, but I noticed the following 2
problems when starting Audiosurf on Steam.
1. with the built-in d3dx9_36 the game crashes on start due to unimplemented
d3dx9_36.dll.D3DXCreateTorus function.
2. With native d3dx9_36 the game gets a bit further but it crashes in
awesomium.exe process if you don't have corefonts installed (that would be bug
#32342).

Hello folks,

can't reproduce this with Audiosurf from Steam, gameplay is fine, no crashes.

Are there any backtraces available?

If possible attach +tid,+seh,+relay log.

$ wine --version
wine-1.7.8-232-g3bad812

I don't seem to get the wine application crash dialogue, so I'm probably unable
to have that.

My log seems to be way too long for the attatchemnt system to accept it. Is
there a place for me to place this, or is there a way for me to shorten it?
Please tell me.
> $ wine --version

I'm using wine-1.7.8 from the "ubuntu-wine" ppa (right now), so this problem
might have been fixed in the build you're using (or at the least, is giving you
no symptoms).

Also, do you guys want me to try with the Wine 1.6.1 to see if my symptoms come
up? Also, do you want me to try in 1.7.9 as well?

Hi, I've installed wine-1.6.1, and it's able to start the game preloader. I
have yet to be able to try with 1.7.9. I'll let you know if it works for me on
1.7.9

The Ubuntu 1.7.x and 1.6.x packages are built by different people. The former
include the winepulse driver and other unsupported patches to dsound while
AFAIK the latter do not. That could be the reason for the difference, and if it
is, this bug is invalid. To test that theory, you would have to build 1.7.9
yourself.

FWIW, I can't reproduce this with the Steam demo. No native dlls installed, but
I did have to disable winegstreamer to work around bug 30557 (that's another
thing you might try, if you haven't already).

--- Comment #10 from Alex Castro  ---
Ok, I compiled Wine 1.7.9 under my VM from the git (It's version
1.7.9-19-ge54503f), and tried loading Audiosurf. The preloader starts this
time! I also tried it with Steam running. It seems to work. I have yet to use
the 'Release' Version of 1.7.9 that's on the homepage. Altough, I think it's
safe to say that it'll work and that this bug is really invalid. Now someone
just needs to send a bug to the Ubuntu-wine group. I'll make one last post on
this bug once I've tested it with the release version.

you must disable builtin 'dwrite' in Steam prefixes (along with
'gameoverlayrenderer').

Please don't hijack bugs for unrelated issues.
