Complete output from wine runblack.exe

When trying to run Black and White on wine 1.7.13 it crashes when starting with
the following error:

wine: Unhandled page fault on read access to 0x00000138 at address 0x37f204
(thread 003e), starting debugger...

This does NOT happen when using wine 1.7.5.

My computer takes forever just to build one version of wine so I haven't had
the time for regression testing yet. If someone could do it for me I would be
very thankful.

Attached is the complete output from `wine runblack.exe`.

The most recent git version (commit 2bb1059ad24942f0ea13d3e49042c8ea85c4cbd6 at
the time of writing) does not crash for me. Although the game does not crash at
the completion of the temple, the textures are still messed up.

If you have more than 1 core on your machine you can speed up compile time by

make -j4

where number is your code amount, in this case 4.

It speeds ups a lot.

Also you can disable test cases when doing bisect (don't remember how), but it
is somewhere winehq guide.

The information in this bug report is not very useful so far. I don't have the
game unfortunately, so I cannot test myself.

First of all it would be very useful if someone could attach the full terminal
output (the attachment in the description is truncated, most likely the crash
dialog was not closed, which is necessary to get the full crash dump). Also
make sure to have debug symbols installed if possible.

When its really a regression, it would also be very useful to know which commit
between 1.7.5 - 1.7.13 exactly broke the game. Take a look here for more
information how to do a regression test:

Output of runblack.exe with WINE 1.6.2

I just tested with wine 1.6.2 and still experiencing the same symptoms. I've
attached the base output - what debug flags do you want to run this with,
exactly?

Even 1.6.2 is called stable, I think bugs should be opened against latest
development version. You should try (and use) latest, which is currently at
1.7.30.

The gab between stable and development version grows every 2 weeks, because
that's how often comes new version of development version.

Can you retest with 1.7.30 or newer?

Done. Here's the output I get with wine I compiled from git.

Note that I do not get a crash dialogue.

Can you test newer wine version? 1.7 is really outdated already.

Backtrace from Wine 3.6

This is still happening on Wine 3.6, see the attached backtrace.

I'd be happy to do more debugging and/or provide more information.

It seems like it only happens on patched versions of Black and White:

1.00 - Works
1.20 - Crashes
1.41 - Crashes

The game crashed neither with version 1.0 nor with version 1.2 on my end. I
might add, that I used a 32-bit prefix in both cases with the Windows version
set to Windows 7 in at least the 1.2 case (I do not remember what was set in
the 1.0 one).

I tried installing, patching and running the game in a WINEARCH=win32 prefix,
but got the same crash :(

I'm on macOS 10.13.4 btw, which system are you running?

In an effort to try and track down the original regression I used Wineskin to
try some different versions of wine. This was all tested with Black & White 1,
patched to 1.20 using the official patch.

1.7.5 - Works
1.7.6 - Works
1.7.7 - Works
1.7.8 - Works
1.7.9 - Works
1.7.10 - Works
1.7.11 - Works
1.7.12 - Crashes

I'm currently trying to build wine from source to track down the commit, but I
cannot get the building to work :(

Okay, so it seems like 1.0 is also crashing for me when installed using the
CD-ROM Setup.exe.

Also, I cannot get the RIP-version from myabandonware.com to work either, which
is the one I tested with in the first place that worked. It doesn't crash, but
instead hangs with a black screen.

I've been at this all day and it seems like I'm worse of then when I started :D

Okay, just figured out a big piece of the puzzle. There is something in wine,
that at least on macOS affects Black & White. But it doesn't affect the game
itself, it affects the installer.

If I run the installer in Wineskin with wine 1.7.5, then copy the entire
wine-prefix out and use it with wine 3.6 from Homebrew, then I can successfully
run the game!

I'm going to try and investigate the difference between the two prefixes, but
my guess is that it has something do to with the registry. I tried to debug the
issue using +relay and it seems to crash after reading something from the
registry... I'm not 100% about this though :)

Backtrace v1.41 with Wine 3.6

Okay, the last post before bed.

I just found out that I've made a horrible mistake! Apparently, Black & White
need you to execute runblack.exe from the directory it's installed to.
Otherwise, it crashes with this very error.

So much of my testing on macOS might, unfortunately, be invalid...

Now version 1.20 seems to be working in Wine 3.6 on macOS 10.13.4.

That being said, I'm still experiencing a segfault with version 1.41, which
prevents me from using that patch.

The error occurs slightly later than the other one though, as soon as the
loading screen has drawn the first frame.

Maybe I should open another bug for that though?

Reading my first comment here, it seems like that was a problem that I can no
longer reproduce. That was a read access to 0x00000138, and today I've been
debugging the 0x00000004 one, which is caused by being in the wrong directory.
(I guess that this would happen on Windows as well, although I haven't verified
that)

The problem with 1.41 is a read access to 0x00000008:

wine: Unhandled page fault on read access to 0x00000008 at address 0x56e1fe
(thread 0009), starting debugger...

Should we open a new bug, and close this as fixed?

Well, that is quite embarrassing. I actually confused this bug with bug 15984
to which I commented just a few days ago. When I then got the email
notification for this bug here, I just read "crash" and "Black and White" and
immediately thought of the other bug. I should have read more carefully.

Because I am actually using Gentoo Linux x86_64 and this bug seems to be
specific to Mac OS X my comments are most likely irrelevant. I am sorry for the
noise.

I am happy that you seem to have managed to resolve your issue in the meantime,
though.
