So I had Origin (and was launching Sims 4 from it) running perfectly fine a couple of weeks ago and now it's crashing before it can even be launched. This is the debug printout I get:

I have the current version of POL 4.2.10 and it had all been working fine on Wine 1.8 with Windows XP. Any help would be appreciated because I'm not all that techy, although I have gotten pretty good at opening and pasting into terminals.

Maybe an update of origins, did you try a more recent version of wine ? Like 2.7, 2.8, or 2.9 ? You can also try staging version of wine after.

 

http://wiki.playonlinux.com/index.php/Managing_Wine_Versions

I just tried 2.7, 2.8, 2.9 and their respective staging options. It's still crashing.

And now this is also listed in the debug in addition to what was already there:

err:module:load_builtin_dll failed to load .so lib for builtin L"winebus.sys": libudev.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
err:winedevice:async_create_driver failed to create driver L"WineBus": c0000142

Normally on ubuntu (for example) it's libudev.so.1 (no more libudev.so.0)

 

Try

sudo apt-get install libudev0:i386

But i doubt it will work.

Seems you also had some bugs with the context creation (maybe linked to OpenGL)

Normally it should run fine (platinum on appdb):

https://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=33219

 

Try that (from appdb):

In winecfg, switch to Windows 7 and use wine-staging-nine "(gallium nine ?)"

In Options.txt, set fullscreen = 0, or it will crash on startup.

 

If the game crashes on launch, be sure that "Origin In-Game" is disabled in Origin's settings.

Origin > Application Settings > Origin In Game > Uncheck "Enable Origin In Game"

PS : if it's due to a maj of Origins, we will have to wait...

PS2: to install origin I needed a library to unpack dxtn texture (i see that in the log)

so don't forget to install it :

sudo apt-get install libtxc-dxtn-s2tc0

PS3 : maybe you will need this

Download www.dm.origin.com/download/legacy (legacy OriginThinSetup.exe).
Create a fresh wineprefix (32-bit).
Run the installer and leave the default options.
When Origin launches it will tell you that "Your update could not be completed.".
Download origin-a.akamaihd.net/Origin-Client-Download/origin/live/OriginUpdate_9_12_0_34172.zip and put the contents into your_wine_prefix/drive_c/Program\ Files/Origin/ , so that that folder contains a Origin.exe file.
You can then start this Origin.exe and log in.

PS4 : I finally manage to run origin with the tricks above
