Re: Having issues with running Warcraft 3: err:ole:CoCreate

Upgraded RAM top 3 gigs again.

Now I am experiencing a weirdo issue here, I can connect to battle.net (meaning it doesn't find a new update) right after patching, but after re-opening it wants to update again.

Re: Having issues with running Warcraft 3: err:ole:CoCreate

Running WINEDEBUG=fixme-all WINEPREFIX=~/.wine-wc3 wine "Frozen Throne.exe" -window -opengl helped, but I am not sure why. Running it with "wine Frozen Throne.exe" now also works. No clue what I actually did to make this happen. But I am stuck @ patching from 1.28.5; after patchi...

Having issues with running Warcraft 3: err:ole:CoCreateInst

Hiho! I am using Ubuntu 14.04 (rarely used Laptop here) and the latest wine stable 2.0.3 after having the same problem with 1.6.something. When I start war3.exe the console tells me the following: err:ntdll:RtlpWaitForCriticalSection section 0x7bd01c20 "loader.c: loader_section" wait timed...

Nullsoft Install System (Gothic 2 mods)

I got Gothic 2 running (more or less). However, I am not able to run Gothic 2 mods. I am not sure this is an installer issue, but I can't exclude it either. Now for this test, I am using a mod which uses the Nullsoft Install System. It does extract the files, but I am not sure if it does it properly...

Re: "Epic Battle Fantasy 4" crashes on startup (Steam)

I did, but I am not sure what it means.

Does it mean it is a severe bug which needs to be fixed in wine itself and that there are no fixes for users somehow possible?

Re: "Epic Battle Fantasy 4" crashes on startup (Steam)

Addendum: Just like with the POL-steam I am loosing my second steam library every nwo and then (with each steam restart maybe?). I can't even add them anymore because now I get the error message that they can't be written on.

Re: "Epic Battle Fantasy 4" crashes on startup (Steam)

Ah thanks. Steam has a font now, for the game itself, I will ask you again in the future. I am on this computer only every second weekend, and I feel it is a good point to make a break here. Also, I can understand why you don't support POL - After all, it can be hard for you guys to follow which con...

Re: "Epic Battle Fantasy 4" crashes on startup (Steam)

When you run winecfg, make sure you run it for the wineprefix where you actually have Steam installed. Given your confusing wineprefix setup, I have a feeling that when you tried to add it to the registry from the command line you added it to the wrong wineprefix, and that's why it didn't work. How...

Re: "Epic Battle Fantasy 4" crashes on startup (Steam)

Uh, dw, I upgraded wine. As for dwrite.dll, disabling it in winecfg is the easiest way to do it. I don't know why people insist on using more complicated (and error-prone) methods. Where do I do that? If that's really your wineprefix, you've created a wineprefix within a wineprefix, which is a bad i...

Re: "Epic Battle Fantasy 4" crashes on startup (Steam)

(Damn, can't edit anymoer)

I also ran

Code: Select all

wine reg add 'HKCU\Software\Valve\Steam' /v DWriteEnable /t REG_DWORD /d 00000000
Or you can start steam with the -no-dwrite option.
I don't know how to do that.

Re: "Epic Battle Fantasy 4" crashes on startup (Steam)

Guess winetricks is supported here?

Got no fonts unfortunally, even though I ran this command:

Executing w_do_call corefonts

Re: "Epic Battle Fantasy 4" crashes on startup (Steam)

Was a bit unclear here. Steam starts, even with 1.5.25 in POL, but I want to start a specific steam game.

I think it is the first time I am ever starting winetricks, my game is not listed there (as I said, it isn't even in the APPDB). Got any advices, links, guides for me?

then you may want to post the full terminal output to somewhere like pastebin.com and link it back here so we can see if there may be a clue there.
How do I get the terminal output again?
