[Bug 39252] New: Heart of Darkness: Crashes on start

https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=39252

Bug ID: 39252
           Summary: Heart of Darkness: Crashes on start
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.7.50
          Hardware: x86-64
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown
          Assignee: [e-mail]
          Reporter: [e-mail]
      Distribution: ---

I've installed Heart of Darkness with no problem, but when I try to run the
game (the `HODWin32.exe`file from Program Files), it crashes with no error
message or anything. If I run the `HeartOfDarkness_En.EXE`, a welcome popup
show up, and if I press "Start Game", the game crashes just the same.

The free demo available on the Internet (`hod_demo-weben1_2.exe`) works fine,
but the full version just crashes on start.

*The terminal output is empty*, and so is debug info (called with
`WINEDEBUG=+relay,+seh,+tid wine HODWin32.exe >> ~/temp/hod_output.txt 2>&1`

Do you really have a /temp folder? Because with a relay log it is impossible to
not have output.

Ops, sorry. I didn't notice the ~. I thought it was a plain /tmp typo.

I managed to find a different version of the game and running it causes CPU
usage to rise up and remain at about 80%, the terminal output is

```
fixme:mountmgr:harddisk_ioctl Unsupported ioctl 2d4800 (device=2d access=1
func=200 method=0)
```

repeated infinitely.

That would be a different problem. The first game source you used could be from
a damaged/bad version of the game.

Well, does ~/temp exist?

Yes, it does - as you can see in Comment #3, I managed to get some interesting
terminal output.

I think it's yours appdb data here rated platium with wine 1.9.10

"HOD_V1.1.03Fr CD version.
I used Cedmu to mount the cd."

tested with 2.19: no crash
CD version FR
Only crash if the CD is not present or not detected, without any debug message.

I also had this crash.
You get the crash if you just mount the CD, navigate to it in your file browser
and just click the setup file from there.
This way the game will not remember the correct drive letter for CD access.

Use "wine explorer" first. Navigate to the D: drive in explorer and launch
setup from there.

After doing so, the game starts without any issues.

I would also recommend you to configure this wine prefix to use the virtual
desktop. This game looks much nicer in a virtual desktop window as the
resolution is pretty low.

I've submitted a appdb entry for this.

I guess this bug can be closed.
