Not working under Batocera/Wine TKG

[mihaimdinca]

Unlike the previous release, this build does not work under Wine TKG/ Batocera Linux V41

@mihaimdinca ideally you might want to provide some more information.
A simple "does not work" is not ideal because there are so many things at play.

Interesting information would be built from source or based on a binary build.
What console output is generated when the start fails.

[mihaimdinca]

You are absolutely right. It was terribly lazy of me. Some more details:

• Hardware: Hp Elitedesk 705 G4 with AMD Ryzen 5 PRO 2400GE APU with integrated Vega 11 GPU, 16 GB of RAM
• OS: BATOCERA.LINUX ES V42u-dev-7d71c20242 2025/01/25 (it is a butterfly not a stable)
• OpenGothic is run with Wine Emulator (Wine TKG 9.21) included in the distribution.
• working OpenGothic version is gothic-win64-v1.0.2207 - downloaded precompiled form the releases section, ran the .bat file on my PC where Gothic 1 and Gothic 2 are installed and then moved it over to the Batocera machine;
• non-working version is gothic-win64-v1.0.3010 - just copied over the files from the assets archive from this release. It runs on my laptop just fails to open in batocera.
• the ssh output looks like this:
  ____ __ ____ _____ ___ ____ ____ __

At some point maybe I will try to give the linux build a try. So far I never tried running a native linux program/ game on batocera (I'm still sort of a noob). The most logical thing though would be for OpenGothic to be integrated into Batocera the same way some many other emulators are (I'm thinking of Dhewm for Doom3, iortcw for Return to Castle Wolfenstein and so on).

Hi, @mihaimdinca !

Based on log you provided:

wine: Call from 00007F06698A5EF7 to unimplemented function msvcp140_2.dll.__std_smf_cyl_bessel_i

It seems wine doesn't quite have support for C++ standard runtime functions. Specifically std::cyl_bessel_i, introduced in C++17, 8 years ago.

I don't see any good reason to workaround emulator bugs, when there is a native client for Linux. Just go native :)

[mihaimdinca]

Installed all the vcredist packs possible. That still did not fix the issue. I managed to get the linux version working though. Currently I see no performance difference between current release under Linux and previous release (the last that was working for me) under Wine. In G2Notr with no mods with most settings to max the performance is not great but at least the fact that the linux version is working gives me hope for improvements in future releases. Thank you for the fine work you are doing. Gothic deserves to outlive JoWood and even Piranha Bytes.

I don't see any good reason to workaround emulator bugs, when there is a native client for Linux. Just go native :)

Fortunately, Wine literally means "not an emulator", it doesn't need to reimplement all the Microsoft stuff and instead can just load their vcredist-provided DLLs directly :)

However, I agree that going native is much easier in OpenGothic case.
