Error during Steam installation + missing sound #462

Closed madoar closed 5 years ago

madoar commented 7 years ago

I'm currently writing a new script for the game Alien Swarm, which can be found here. When testing the new script I stumbled over multiple problems:

  1. When installing steam I get the following error message: auswahl_020 Luckily this message is ignorable, and can be closed without terminating the installation.
  2. Afterwards I've discovered, that I had no sound in the game. This lead me to the wine configuration and Regedit to take a look at the sound configuration of wine, which looks like this: auswahl_021 auswahl_022 As far as I know, the wine configuration should at least show a selected driver, which in my screenshot is none (Kein). In addition, as far as I understand https://wiki.winehq.org/Sound, a registry entry HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Wine\Drivers should exist, which should contain at least the sound driver settings.

Do you have any idea how to fix these issues?

Is there any bug report on winehq about this? At a first glance this looks like a Wine problem to me (wouldn't know how Phoenicis should cause this).

Regarding the webhelper: Can you solve it if you run steamwebhelper.exe with winxp?

madoar commented 7 years ago

I don't know of a bug report regarding sound problems in combination with wine and alien swarm. Maybe you could test if you stumble over the same problem? I mean the game is free and I believe you don't even need to completely install it, because the wine settings in my case show, that no drivers are available... Regarding webhelper: Here it seems like a change to winxp helps.

Just tried. I have sound. Driver is set to winepulse.drv.

madoar commented 6 years ago

Kk, then it seems to be my setup. Do you have an idea how to elegantly fix the webhelper problem? I'm not sure if it's a good idea to completely set the windows version to winxp inside the script.

plata commented 6 years ago

We could set webhelper to winxp in the SteamScript directly.

madoar commented 6 years ago

Can you do a PR? I have no idea how to do this specifically for webhelper.

plata commented 6 years ago

I have no time to test this currently. But in the end it's pretty easy. Compare e.g. in the Rocksmith 2014 script:

wine.setOsForApplication().set("Rocksmith2014.exe", "win7").do();

Do you still have this? I just installed Steam and Hexcells and both worked without problems.

madoar commented 6 years ago

@plata I'll test it tomorrow.

plata commented 6 years ago

@madoar can we close this?

madoar commented 5 years ago

I have no clue, I also don't have the game installed currently. But I think it is possible that the reason for this were some missing system dependencies at the time. So let's close this for now.
