[SOLVED!] Can't start Heroes4 in wine
Greetings,
I am trying to get an old game of mine, Heroes IV of Might and Magic, to play under wine. I know it plays under wine; or at least it does under the other distros I had used extensively in the past (namely Kubuntu and Sabayon). It usually runs better under wine than in windows.
However despite setting up wine just as I had in the past, the game will not run. It installs fine, and I have applied the no-cd exe as always before. However it simply won't run. Here's is what I get when running it in command line.
[mythus@norova Heroes of Might and Magic IV]$ wine heroes4.exe

Re: [SOLVED!] Can't start Heroes4 in wine
Greetings,
Here's some more information, hopefully it will be helpful in helping me solve this issue.
The graphic's card is an Nvidia 6200, I am using the latests Nvidia driver.
The sound card is Nvidia as well.
Processor is an AMD64 Anthlon however I am running the i686 build Arch (don't like messing with programs that hate the 64 bit builds).
I have 2 gig ram, and a 4 gig swap, so slow down really isn't a problem.
I am running ext4 for my root and home partitions, rieserfs for my var partition.
I mainly run KDEMod 4.2 (I like how I can make it look and work), but I also tested this in e17 and LXDE (two of my other favorite environments), I even tried it on GNOME even though I am not much of a GNOME fan (do like some of the GTK themes, myXenon and Cloud to name a few, though). And this problem presists in those environments, leading me to believe that it is not a desktop environment issue.
My WINE setup is for WinXP, I have set up the My Documents, Videos, Music, Pictures folder and set up the drives/mounts. Alsa is the sound driver that I am using, and I am using the default video settings (no virtual desktop and the likes). However I had tried it with a virtual desktop setting, and no go.
I am really at a loss here. This game runs wonderfully under wine (better than even in windows) in kubuntu, linux mint, sabayon, open suse, debian, and mempis. But since I had been using Arch Linux for a while now, I wanted to get this running in Wine here. I am using Virtual Box already to prevent me from having to boot into windows just for my use of InDesign CS3. Now I just want to get HOMMIV running under WINE and then I can finally remove my old winxp partition withouth loosing the chance to play my old favorite once and awhile.
If there is any more info I can give to help solve this issue please let me know. If I somehow missed over a wiki article or post already stating on how to fix this type of issue, please direct me to it.
Thanks again for any help on this matter.

Re: [SOLVED!] Can't start Heroes4 in wine
Greetings,
Here';s some update.
I have tested a couple other programs. Sim City 4 is running perfectly well under wine. HOMMIV Map Editor works well under wine. Only thing not working is HOMMIV. It will try to load, flicker a black screen for a sec, then laugh at me and quit.

Re: [SOLVED!] Can't start Heroes4 in wine
Greetings,
I like to think I've been patient about this but I have to admit, I am losing my patience. By now I'd thought I'd at least hear a "um.. sorry... not sure what the problem is" or a 'go read blah blah blah post or wiki".. but instead I have only been talking to myself. Please, if there is anything that anyone can think of that might help me with this one little issue, I'd be most appreciative. I have tried everything I can think of, from going over xorg with a fine tooth comb to doing seances (that last bit is a joke obviously:P )
I did manage to get rid of part of an error, no longer getting the "Xlib: extension "Generic Event Extension" missing on display ":0.0".". Not sure what I did actually to get rid of that though lol.
So anyways, here's a new wine output from trying to run Heroes4:

Re: [SOLVED!] Can't start Heroes4 in wine
Check which version of wine you were using in Sabayon. Maybe a later version of wine breaks compatibility.

Re: [SOLVED!] Can't start Heroes4 in wine
Greetings,
I am thinking that was the one right before their stable release. I am not sure why the newer wine wouldn't play it yet would rung other components, such as hommiv campaign editor... but I'll build the stable version from AUR and give that a try. I'll post back any results.
Thanks for your tip!

Re: [SOLVED!] Can't start Heroes4 in wine
I am not sure why
They apply *hundreds* of patches between releases. That's a heck of a lot of patches. Some of those patches have undesirable side-effects.

Re: [SOLVED!] Can't start Heroes4 in wine
Well it seems that was the problem after all. After removing wine and .wine, compiling the wine-stable, running winecfg again, reinstalline HOMMIV again, it ran fine.
So thanks for your help! I appreicate it. I guess I should have guessed newer does not always mean better.. but it is just something that never occured to me until you brought it up, and i found wine-stable floating in AUR-land. I wonder why wine-stable isn't the default package and wine-current isn't in testing or aur, but oh well.. I finally have that issue resolved and am greatful for it because the other day I went ahead and removed windows completely off my pc (thought it was silly to keep just for an odd game when I'd never boot into it or hadn't for over a year lol).

Re: [SOLVED!] Can't start Heroes4 in wine
One suggestion is that you use Playonlinux next time, it allows you to use different versions of wine for different games, if you wish. The game installation is also fully automated by the program, anything special needed to get the game running is installed and you don't even have to think about it. The downsides is that there are not scripts out for every game yet, and that some of the scripts might be outdated. Give it a try if you dont think it is a good idea to downgrade wine permanently for all your apps.
