wine users - Oct 2010 - Wine and WoW Cataclysm Patch 4.0 troubleshooting thread

Hello,

The WoW 4.0 Cataclysm patch landed today, and there's bound to be lots of
questions about getting it running in wine.


My current status is that I've downloaded the patch and installed it. 
I've got the new (original WoW) login screen graphic.  Once I login, I see a
new character background and then a "downloading update" message. 
Wine crashes moments later.

I'll try what I can think of to resolve this and report back.

I'm using Ubuntu 10.4 and Wine 1.1.42


Here's the backtrace section of the console output after the error:

Assuming you didn't get this fixed last night, check your list of 
processes running. The downloader left several zombies running on my 
system that kept the next updater from working properly. As soon as I 
nuked the zombie launchers the next update worked fine.

General info - was able to load in and do everything I normally would in 
game, run randoms, etc. with no problems using wine 1.3.1, Fedora 13, 
nvidia 6150se, nvidia driver 256.53.

Basically you need to update to the newest version of WINE. The new updater
basically will not work in newer versions so you will have to run the new
version that has the updates for this.

Hello,

My system: Wine 1.3.4, ubuntu 10.04. Nvidia binary drivers from ubuntu 
proprietary drivers screen (version 195.36.24). WoW patched itself 
without problems.

I'm unable to get it working properly though: In WinXP mode, both openGL 
and direct3d, I get this error:

err:seh:raise_exception Unhandled exception code c0000005 flags 0 addr 
0x7bc49888

When launching WoW with wine set to Vista or Win7 mode, it starts 
properly, however I do not get any sound. The following set of messages 
shows on my screen 5 times:

err:ole:COMPOBJ_DllList_Add couldn't load in-process dll
L"mmdevapi.dll"
err:ole:create_server class {bcde0395-e52f-467c-8e3d-c4579291692e} not 
registered
fixme:ole:CoGetClassObject CLSCTX_REMOTE_SERVER not supported
err:ole:CoGetClassObject no class object 
{bcde0395-e52f-467c-8e3d-c4579291692e} could be created for context 0x17

Combining with wow's sound log, I deduce that mmdevapi.dll is the only 
sound API it is trying, and I've had that disabled for a while because 
sound with it does not work. Re-enabling mmdevapi, I get some weird 
noise for a fraction of a second during game start, and then a seemingly 
infinite series of copies of the following message:

err:mmdevapi:ACR_ReleaseBuffer Starting from 1014

Also, it seems most video settings are not available in openGL mode. 
Setting it to Direct3D allows most settings in the detail boxes, but 
only up to 'fair' in the main slider, and most settings under
'liquid
detail' and 'sunshafts' stay disabled with the message
'Unsupported for
graphics related reasons'.

Does anyone have any ideas? I'd particularly like to get my sound 
working - I rely on audio cues for ability timing, so I'm worthless 
without sound.

Thanks.  I upgraded to Ubuntu 10.10 (which included Wine 1.2) and started the
Launcher.exe with the -opengl option.

Downloading stuff now.  So far so good...

After all the downloading and patching my login screen has gone back to the
WotLK style, but after I log in i now get the message:

"Internal Errors - invalid parameters received"

and how do I get it

Stacey,

I'm so sorry, I thought I had e-mailed you and let you know that I 
wouldn't be able to make it after all, but perhaps I didn't. I've
just
been very low energy and conserving. Actually wound up with an 
unexpected  dentist appointment, so canceling was the right thing all 
the way around. Sorry I missed what I'm sure was a wonderful meditative 
experience, especially since it wasn't in the rain! See you when I get back.

I get the exact same error at the same place.. Running Ubuntu 10.04 64bit First
in wine 1.2.1 (I think) and now after an upgrade also in 1.3.4.. Any help would
be greatly appreciated.

Same error here.. 
usign wine 1.3.4
ive downloaded 8 Gb all over from blizzard account site, then it started
downloading 4 gb of patches.. this second download failed at some point.... i
dont know when... then i started the game, got the cataclysm screen also...
loged myself in, and once the download started i got the same error as you guys
got...
ubuntu 10.10 here

hope we can fix this soon!
best regards

For all of the other issues being reported, try the clean ~/.wine and if it
still happens, try running the repair tool, and try clearing the wtf and
interface folders. One of those is bound to fix it.

also note Blizzard is dropping support for OpenGL, the new effects and many of
the old ones no longer work and WOW crashes a ton with OpenGL .

Blizzard is moving all functions over to GLL for there Mac customers. Forcing
Linux players to use the D3Dx10 with winetricks , i get bad FPS but the game
does run and all but the newest effects are back on.
