Hi, as some of you may know, there were some issues reported recently about the Steam version of this game not starting. Presumably the solution was to compile wine 1.2+ with a recent version of GCC and binutils, so that the copy protection software could hook certain functions. I've done this, and I've posted some details in the bug tracker ( http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=23553). The In-game Steam Community works for me now, which reportedly is a sign that the above steps went well. However, Deus Ex: Invisible Wars still won't launch. The pop-up error window reads "Application Error: Problem starting up Steam." I'm using Wine 1.3 that I compiled myself, but I get the exact same error with Ubuntu's package for Wine 1.2, which, according to reports of several people on Wine's bug tracker, doesn't meet the compiler requirements I mentioned at the top. I have a bunch of DLL overrides created by winetricks when I installed dx9, VC Runtime 2005, 2008, .Net 2.0, XNA RT, MSXML 6.0, PhysX. I believe everything else is pretty much standard, and those are needed by most games anyway. Many other games work just fine. Anybody can help me diagnose the problem? Is anybody able to run the Steam version of this game? -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
