Running 80_PA.exe under Wine/Linux

Open YoteZip opened this issue 11 months ago • 5 comments

Hello, have you ever had success testing the latest versions of 80_PA.exe using Wine? I have the 1.3.4.0 of this program from a while ago, and that version continues to work under Wine (even generating successful keys for the Wine system configuration), but all releases from this GitHub repo don't even launch. Not sure what might have changed or what Wine is choking on, as there are no errors being generated.

Testing with the following configurations: Wine versions: Proton-GE 9-21, Wine-GE 8-26, Kron4ek staging-tkg 9-13 Redistributables: VCRun2022, Dotnet48

Not that this is something that needs to be fixed on your end per se, but it's interesting that this used to work under Wine and has stopped at some point. SPR_I.exe continues to launch fine in all versions.

Hello!

Probably, can help - install mfc42 lib separately (Ubuntu/Debian):

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-wine/ppa
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
winetricks mfc42

Also, you can launch 80_PA in to terminal and show output here?!?

Wow nice one, yep winetricks mfc42 is sufficient to launch 80_PA.exe

I just checked with Kron4ek staging-tkg 9-22 and mfc42 and was able to launch 80_PA.exe and generate successful keys.

Thanks a ton!

Edit: I see now that the mfc42 tip is in the latest release's Guide_EN near the bottom - I didn't realize the guide had changed from the old 1.3.4.0 one, sorry!

if possible, i exclude MFC42 dependency at next 80_PA SecuROM keygen releases. Stay keygenned.

MFC42.dll is no longed needed. Now is static linked.

Working for me in a new Wine prefix without mfc42
