"incorrect checksum for freed object" error HELP!

Post by LRFLEW »

Ok, so I'm trying to get an old PC game of mine to work with Wine (RollerCoaster Tycoon Deluxe). It seems to run fine for a while, but once I try to do something (for example, watch the tutorial), at a random point, the game locks up, and I get the following error:

Code: Select all

wine(96740,0x411af000) malloc: *** error for object 0x406c7e80: incorrect checksum for freed object - object was probably modified after being freed.
*** set a breakpoint in malloc_error_break to debug
EDIT: after looking at the error messages I get again, I noticed that the numbers are never the same.

I have no clue what's causing this error, nor how to fix it. Can anybody tell me what I should try to get this to work?

Here is all the info I can think might be relevant:
wine version: 1.4.1 (mac build from http://winebottler.kronenberg.org/wine/)
running as: winXP
virtual desktop size: 800x600
Winetricks installs: directx9
X11 app version: XQuartz 2.7.2
RCTD version: I don't know how to find this

If you need any more info, just ask :P

WineBottler is not supported here; this forum is for plain Wine only.

I'm not using WineBottler itself. I'm just using the Wine wrapper that the same person made. This is definitely a wine error!

Use the latest development release of plain Wine if you want help here. Most of our Mac users seem to recommend Macports. Wineskin is another wrapper that also has a way of running plain Wine from the terminal.
