It's your time to shine and save all our friends on Windows11 24H2!

I could set a breakpoint and see what the values on these are. But that's all I can do there :KEKW:

adrientd

If you are brave enough to sacrifice your ability to play XXL to save other people so they can play XXL again, sure 👍

schmeling65

We don't need to update to know what is inside there xD

adrientd

Indeed, but it's harder

schmeling65

BAKU we need someone

adrientd

I feel like we would need to reverse engineer the whole audio stuff from the game just to fix the single bug.

schmeling65

maybe, but maybe even not. How about we test at me if one of these checks fails/succeds at me so the function at 0x5F3E90 doesn't get executed.

adrientd

Not sure, maybe we could also try to remove to call to the crashing function 0x5F3E90, but I'm not sure if that would fix or make it even worse.

schmeling65

meh removing something isn't something I recommend. I mean, I did it for certain things :KEKW:

as long as we are not sure what it does, it's better to not touch it

adrientd

So I remember there is a bug report of Asterix XXL crashing in Wine, and it is also related to DirectSound: https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=44407

adrientd

And in fact, when I tried to run XXL on Wine last time, it also crashed for me, though XXL2 and OG still worked.

schmeling65

but that crash looks related to openGL and therefor to graphics instead of sound

schmeling65

oh actually

schmeling65

@baku69 could you search something really quick? Go to `C:\Windows\System32` and check if there is a file `dsdmo.dll`

baku69

Broski im working

baku69

nightshift

baku69

on the break

schmeling65

then sec...

schmeling65

oh? maybe my friend got some infos about it. We think he is on the newest version and *apperantly* he doesn't have this file, while I have it.
