I'm not sure why you think using github or some tool would help. Wine has a review process, it looks like this: https://source.winehq.org/patches/ Staging had a very similar review process in 2017: https://dev.wine-staging.com/patches/ The problem was very clearly that the Staging folks lacked the ...

Great! By the way, when I asked you the Linux Mint version you are running you replied 3.0, but I'm pretty sure that's the Wine version :D I think what happened is that the package you downloaded from winehq.org was compiled against a Jpeg library version that was incompatible with the one installed...

What version of Linux mint are you running?
Could it be an old version that is not maintained anymore?

I'm not sure I can help, I'm not a Wine expert, but I have the impression you have a bad wine installation, or maybe you are missing that library in your system. You should also mention what linux distribution you are using and how you installed Wine. The most common ways to install wine are: - inst...

Hello, I'm glad it helped! Agent.exe might be required to run the Battle.net app, so there might not be way around it while Battle.net is running. However it might not be required while the game is running. Is that error message popping up also while you play? There is usually a few seconds delay be...

Hello, I haven't tried for a while, but I was able to run HotS on Wine Staging 2.21. I ran Wine on a 64bit prefix (WINEARCH=win64) but in the launch game options inside Battle Net I specified: - run 32bit client - in additional commandline options I specified -dx9 to run using DirectX 9 Those tips c...

Somebody was speculating that there won't be a staging version for the stable release, so there would be one after the next development release. According to the usual 2 weeks release cycle a new development release is due today, let's see what happens! But it could simply be that the wine-staging m...

The development section of the wine-staging website still has quite regular activity:
https://dev.wine-staging.com/timeline/

So hopefully we'll just have to wait a bit longer.

I don't know if it completely fixes the installation, but I've noticed that there was a commit for the Office 2016 installer:
https://source.winehq.org/git/wine.git/ ... d801f30c5b

It was done quite shortly after this post, so maybe a developer picked up on it

I can't see any development build for 3.0-rc1 either.
While the staging build often comes a few days, or more, after the release the development one is usually ready within a few hours.
Is that unrelated?

I'm not complaining, just curious

I found the problem! I had a look at the debug logs before, but found them quite verbose and unhelpful to my inexpert eyes. However I had another go and spotted this: fixme:d3d:wined3d_dxtn_init Wine cannot find the txc_dxtn library, DXTn software support unavailable. So I searched if I could instal...

Are you also on Ubuntu 17.10? This problem started happening since I upgraded Ubuntu to 17.10, doesn't seem related to the wine version, which is why I haven't opened a bug on Wine yet. I'm on a Dell Latitude with Intel i7-6600U CPU and integrated graphics. Hardly a gaming laptop, but it was enough ...

Sorry I should have mentioned it, I always run it using the -dx9 option, otherwise it doen't start at all, which is a known bug: https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=43775 I also checked the option to run the 32 bits client. I have the following in winecfg: - disabled all of the configurable stag...

Hi everyone, I've been a Wine user for a long time, and I follow its development, but this is my first post. I've been playing Heroes of the Storm recently, until a couple of weeks ago on Ubuntu 16.04 and it was working ok. Since I upgraded to Artful 17.10 I have the problem you can see in the attac...
