wine users - Aug 2011 - Previously working app now has blank windows when launched

Hello, 
I am referring to Army Builder 2.2c
It used to work fine as long as I can remember, but now, on all my computers, it
launches with white windows.

Here is what I see when I load the program:

Any help would be appreciated!

This is what we refer to as a regression.  Can you find out which 
version of Wine 'broke it' or can you remember which is the last version
where it ran?

Yes, it was a regression after all. I purged everything to do with WINE and
reinstalled forcing the last version available. The other day I had to do a
'dist-upgrade' to get the newest wine version to install which removed
wine1.2 and its dependencies and installed wine1.3 and its dependencies. Going
back to 1.2 fixed the issues I was having. I can provide specific version
numbers if required.

Greetings,

The bug, causing the problem in Army Builder has been already reported here:
http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=27990
The patch, attached in that bug report resolves the problem in Army Builder
2.2c, too.
Hopefully, the patch will get in the next release (1.3.27). Alternatively, you
can revert back to Wine-1.3.25 (which is free from the problem).

Regards

Why thank you, sir! Very informative.
