Can't figure out OLE error

Post by pac1jpsnet »

I re-installed Gamemaker 8.0 and it opens fine but when trying to run a compiled game I get the following:

fixme:winediag:AUDDRV_GetAudioEndpoint Winepulse is not officially supported by the wine project
fixme:winediag:AUDDRV_GetAudioEndpoint For sound related feedback and support, please visit http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1960599
err:ole:CoGetClassObject class {ef3e932c-d40b-4f51-8ccf-3f98f1b29d5d} not registered
err:ole:CoGetClassObject no class object {ef3e932c-d40b-4f51-8ccf-3f98f1b29d5d} could be created for context 0x1

Winecfg version is stated as being 1.6.2 which used to work with Gamemaker flawlessly. I suspect I need some Windows drivers but am unsure which ones. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Start by upgrading Wine; 1.6.2 is over two years old and no longer supported, and the package you are using contains unapproved patches. Use the WineHQ packages. https://wiki.winehq.org/Ubuntu

When I upgraded Wine, Gamemaker no longer worked even on starting a game. This older Wine was the only one that used to work with Gamemaker 8.0
