fixme:dinput:IDirectInputAImpl_QueryInterface

[fcmartins]

I was trying oddworlds stranger's wrath and the game crashes after:

fixme:dinput:IDirectInputAImpl_QueryInterface Unsupported interface: {eb0d7dfa-1990-4f27-b4d6-edf2eec4a44c}
wine: Unhandled page fault on read access to 0x00000000 at address 0x6133db (thread 0039), starting debugger...

There is a bug for that: http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=26824

and the game actually works after winetricks dinput8.

However, the mouse does not function at all (not even buttons), which makes the game unplayable which is a pity for one bug.

Any suggestions for workarounds?

Short of stubbing that interface - none.

You mean you believe stubbing is good enough or would it just be a go for a lucky shot?

How come the direct input 8 docs from MS do not mention this interface?

It should be good enough. Might require some "meaningful" return values.

It's a joystick config interface. If you have no joystick it can always return empty result. BTW documentation is here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library ... 85%29.aspx
