Space Engineers Crash at Launch - Not like usual

[GrenadeMoose]

I have a fresh install of Manjaro Linux, wine, winetricks and steam. Wine is version 1.7.33.
My steam install is under a 32-bit wineprefix.

For steam to work, I have disabled dwrite, and installed corefonts.

I have noticed that with the current version of steam, it hangs on login if I do not set my Windows version to Windows 7 (which may be due to a recent update?). Apart from that, everything works flawlessly on that end.

For Space Engineers, I have installed dotnet40, vcrun6, and set sound=disabled, oleaut32=native, and overlayrenderer=disable. According to WineHQ, everything should be working. I have run the .net verification tool and made sure that .net4.0 was installed and working properly... However, when I execute Space Engineers, it immediately crashes. There is no black screen, or anything to show that the engine has started. It just crashes immediately, throws up a debug window asking to submit information to developers, and spits out a log file.

Here is the log file from space engineers:

I will also include the terminal output while the game is loading. If it would be more helpful to include all of the terminal output, including while steam is running on its own, I can.

While running steam with WINEDEBUG=fixme-all, this is something that is constantly repeating:

Thanks in advance for your help, guys!

I should also mention that I have deleted the checksum.xml file and it still crashes.
And I noticed that Space Engineers does not get to a point where it generates a config file. What would normally be in AppData\Roaming\SpaceEngineers is gone, in fact there is no Roaming folder yet, as the wineprefix is too new nothing has been generated...

I have noticed that with the current version of steam, it hangs on login if I do not set my Windows version to Windows 7 (which may be due to a recent update?). Apart from that, everything works flawlessly on that end.

Logging into Steam from real XP is nearly impossible, too; Valve seems to have dropped support for it. Any version higher than XP should work.

Unfortunately, the Windows version may well be what's causing the crash on start; all the AppDB tests were for XP. If this is a game that can be played offline, try setting the Windows version back to XP.

[dimesio]

I just tried a fresh wineprefix set to XP, and today it was able to connect to the Steam server without any problem, so perhaps the connection issue was just a temporary glitch that they've fixed. I would definitely try again with the Windows version set to XP (you may have to create a clean wineprefix for that if you've already connected at the higher version).

[GrenadeMoose]

Solved!

It appears as though someone fixed xp logins overnight. I have been installing steam on fresh wineprefixes for three days now and every single time I went to log in through an xp wine, it would hang on account authentication. Today, everything works like it should...

So with that, I started a fresh wineprefix, installed steam, and did all the same that I had previously mentioned to install space engineers. I tried starting the game and it crashed a few times, as the AppDB tests had proved it was tricky to launch on the first try. But this time there were no crash logs from space engineers.

Then, on the fifth try, it launched perfectly. I guess it was a Windows 7 vs Windows XP wine problem... Thanks for your help guys!
