The forum

Hi guys,

I am having problems with running Europa Universalis 3 Rome Gold Vae Victis. I have managed to get the game running initially but it crashes about 30 seconds into beginning the game from exiting title screen. (see error log below). I have followed the instructions as per:

http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=13756

However I have been unable to disable the sound in POL as is suggested and it is showing winealsa.drv. However the article is quite old and the sound appears to be running fine. Can anyone please decrypt the error log below and tell me what is going wrong? Is this an error generated by the sound issue or is it something else? If it is the sound issue causing the crash and I must do without the sound, do I need to edit the registry to disable the sound or perhaps a command script that will do so on launch?

I have spent a considerable amount of time scratching my head over this and have solved issues with other games and have not just dumped a question on here at the first sign of difficulty so any help would be very much appreciated. Its frustrating to be so close...

Wow, that is a lot of "Deferred" libraries
If sound is working until the crash, then I'm guessing its something else, but its just a guess. I rarely have sound issues with Wine.

Did you install the d3dx9 libraries including the 36.dll recommended on WineHQs?
Also did you set Display options in PlayOnLinux Configure?
DirectDrawRenderer: opengl
OffscreenRenderingMode: fbo
VideoMemorySize: amount of memory on your video card
