I'm having trouble running this game under Wine 1.7.8 . The message I get in the window is "Unable to load startup channelgroup". The file it complains about is "start - project loader.cgr" Oddly enough, it worked under wine 1.7.7 but I had to upgrade because of Steam's Dec. 3rd update not working under 1.7.7 . I have used the winetricks scripts d3dx9, vb6run, devenum, quartz, gdiplus, dsound, directmusic, vcrun6 and vcrun2005. Some of those may not be relevant as I have done this over time, and not in relation to the game. (It worked fine under wine 1.7.7) Also, running this under terminal nets me a "fixme:win:EnumDisplayDevicesW ((null),0,0xdae268,0x00000000), stub!". I'm stumped on what to do. Let me know of what else I can try!
Wine Version: wine-1.7.8
Operating System: Kubuntu Linux 12.04.3
Audiosurf "Quest3D Error" on startup from Steam
Re: Audiosurf "Quest3D Error" on startup from Steam
Try reinstalling to a clean wineprefix in 1.7.8.
Re: Audiosurf "Quest3D Error" on startup from Steam
So, I've renamed the old .wine folder (I assume that's the prefix.) I had it do the whole config update and reinstalled steam. (I had to use the --no-dwrite because of the "no text problem") I've reinstalled Audiosurf. The result is the exact same as with my old prefix: "Unable to load startup channelgroup" It's still complaining about "start - project loader.cgr" What else can I try?
Re: Audiosurf "Quest3D Error" on startup from Steam
Ok, so I got the game to "run". However, I had to use a different "approach": I installed wine-1.6 over the current install. The game loads and doesn't complain about files. Unfortunately, I can't play because I need steam running (Different problem entirely, as I know it was fixed later). Does that mean some sort of regression happened in wine-1.7.8? Should I go file a bug?
