--- Comment #1 from Anastasius Focht focht@gmx.net --- Hello folks,

that's because Macromedia Director 5.0/6.0 created games are incompatible with modern Windows versions. It's a known issue and you would get the same error with MS Windows.

http://www.tacktech.com/display.cfm?ttid=303

...

From your log file:

--- snip --- ... 0009:Call KERNEL32.GlobalMemoryStatus(0033f82c) ret=0046a04b 0009:Ret KERNEL32.GlobalMemoryStatus() retval=00000000 ret=0046a04b 0009:Call user32.LoadStringA(00400000,00000880,0033f89c,00000080) ret=0046a07b 0009:Ret user32.LoadStringA() retval=00000013 ret=0046a07b 0009:Call user32.LoadStringA(00400000,0000000f,0033f91c,00000080) ret=0046a092 0009:Ret user32.LoadStringA() retval=00000042 ret=0046a092 0009:Call user32.MessageBoxA(00000000,0033f99c "This program requires at least 3MB of free virtual memory to run.",0033f89c "Director Player 5.0",00000000) ret=0046a0cb ... --- snip ---

You could run the app as follows to show the reported values for your system.

--- snip --- $ WINEDEBUG=+globalmem wine ./foobar ... --- snip ---

The app probably wants something well below 2GB.

You could try to patch your app as described on this website:

--- Comment #2 from Anastasius Focht focht@gmx.net --- Hello again,

I found a "backup" of 'Macromedia Director 5' on Internet to play with. Even the installer has the same problem.

--- quote --- Macromedia Director 5 Released in 1996 by Macromedia For Windows 3.1 with Win32s and Windows 95

Director is a multimedia authoring tool, and is used to create Macromedia Shockwave content.

This archive contains an ISO image with both a 16-bit Windows 3.1 version and a 32-bit Windows 95 version. --- quote ---

You basically need to ensure dwAvailPageFile+dwAvailPhys <= 0x7FFFFFFF (2GB)

Wine source:

"work around for broken photoshop 4 installer" -> Line 1427 looks pretty much what we want. The change was introduced by Alexandre himself in year 2004:

https://source.winehq.org/git/wine.git/commitdiff/2130f613102c46aaa643336ff4... ("In GlobalMemoryStatus, also cap the sum of dwAvailPhys and")

The problem with that code is the test for < 2 GB range (MAXLONG). GCC emits this code:

--- snip --- ... addl %edx,%eax testl %eax,%eax jns no_need_to_cap_2gb ... --- snip ---

'test' will set the sign flag based on the most significant bit of %eax.

Consider two cases:

dwAvailPageFile(0x7fffffff) + dwAvailPhys(0x7fffffff) = 0xfffffffe, causes a signed overflow, but not an unsigned overflow (or carry) -> 'S' flag set, 'C' flag not set.

dwAvailPageFile(0xffffffff) + dwAvailPhys(0x7fffffff) = 0x7ffffffe, causes an unsigned overflow (with carry) -> 'C' flag set, 'S' flag not set.

The latter case is actually the default for non-IMAGE_FILE_LARGE_ADDRESS_AWARE apps. The unsigned overflow is not detected hence no 2GB cap handling. I've modified the expression to take potential unsigned integer overflow into account and the app works correctly. This will likely fix a lot of old Adobe installers/apps from Win9X era.

--- quote --- (For the record, this sort of problem is known. I think the oldest bug tracking something like it is 19494.) --- quote ---

well, the original reason bug 19494 was created for is invalid. The conclusion drawn from the error message has nothing to do with virtual memory/pagefile etc. I've put an update in that ticket and resolved it.

But yes, an improvement could be to allow tweaking certain pagefile/physmem values via registry settings to get rid of some hacks in 'GlobalMemoryStatus()' It doesn't necessarily need to be accessible via user interface though (as shown in http://www.tacktech.com/display.cfm?ttid=303) .. that would be luxury.

Before the patch it gave a warning that at least 10MB was required for running. After that patch it launched perfectly fine and worked great.

This should probably be merged into wine.

--- Comment #18 from odecif@gmail.com --- Still an issue with wine-7.1 and the game Safecracker. The patch at www.sacah.net still works though as a walkaround.

--- Comment #19 from kolAflash kolAflash@kolahilft.de --- Same for the "TKKG" game series by Tivola. (games for children after a audio play and book series) At least TKKG 1 up to 4 are affected by this. https://www.tkkg-site.de/de/spielen/computerspiele/tivola/serie.html You can get most games of this series at archive.org https://archive.org/details/tkkg-1-jennifer-is-missing

The patch by Sagawa works like charm! https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=44931#c10 Tested with Wine-6.0.4 on Debian-12. For Wine-6.0.4 compilation see also: https://forum.winehq.org/viewtopic.php?t=37982 (topic waiting for moderation)

--- Comment #20 from kolAflash kolAflash@kolahilft.de --- P.S. Looks like ScummVM has support for Macromedia Director games :-) So for at least some games this might be an alternative. Maybe it's even more comfortable, because of ScummVM features like picture zooming. https://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Director (I didn't test TKKG 1 with ScummVM yet)

--- Comment #21 from Ker noa blue-t@web.de --- Wine 10.7 and TKKG10 with Director 8 also complain about not enough RAM when trying to install it from cdrom.

ScummVM is won't reach higher versions of Macromedia Director anytime soon. For the time being this needs to be solved on the wine level.
