Hi guys,
first of all - great work. I was able to run simcity using script provided by jre. Everything works like it is described and that's briliant. Of course, there are some minor issues, but this is normal while running game through wine. Unfortunately I have one issue that I would have to fix if I would like to play game for a long time - and maybe someone knows how to solve it. While being in city view when I move mouse over building it should be highlighted - instead weard white elements are shown, and they are in wrong place.
I attach part of the sample screenshot below. Did anyone had similar issue and knows how to get rid of it?

Hi,

EA recently released a new major version of Origin which causes troubles:

  • It broke the content downloading once again, I've adapted the script to that and now am able to fully install SimCity again.
  • Unfortunately I get a "We are unable to connect to EA servers to activate SimCity Digital Deluxe Edition on this computer using your account. Please try again later." At the same time this still works when I install in a terminal instead of using the script (using same wine version and doing exactly the same steps). (I'm on Debian Jessie amd64).
  • License text is not shown again, while it works fine without POL.

So this script might install everything, but then fail to launch SimCity... I'd like to hear from you whether 2.) happens to you, too. It would be great to hear a "Works here".

There have been different reports about graphic issues (e.g. wojtek88's or my fullscreen issue). I assume they are all hardware related. E.g. mine turned out to be a Intel/mesa one, which I could solve in the meantime. Also, the texture stuff is definitely experiencing continuous improvement in wine

Changelog:

  • use wine 1.7.30
  • drop all additional dependencies (wininet, vcrun20XX, font stuff)
  • simplify and documentation updates (moved some information from POL_SetupWindow_message to comments, removed obsolete stuff)
  • rename PREFIX to SimCity2013
  • adapt closer to POL style scripting
  • use "POL_Wine" instead of sytem "wine" in DVD section
  • rewrite patch Origin's Qt5Network.dll section, update to work again with new Origin

# The initial version of this script was tested using the

# with wine 1.6-rc2, xUbuntu 13.10

# The Origin version of this script was tested:
# Older Origin       with wine 1.5.28-Origin
# Origin 9.4.12.2807 with wine 1.7.23
# Origin 9.5.1.571   with wine 1.7.30

# Known bad wine versions:
# - 1.7.23 (newer Origin versions crash).
# - 1.7.29 (textures, wine bug #37406).

# This script mimics the HOWTO from the wine AppDB:
# https://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=27821
# Check TROUBLESHOOTING there first, if you have any
# issues.

# Known bugs:
# * Origin needs Job Objects (a wine by POL using the patch
#   from wine bug #33723 would be nice).
#   Then this would work:
#   - Installation finishes automatically (no
#     "kill EAProxyInstaller.exe" necessary).
#   - Origin doesn't complain that SimCity is still
#     running after quitting SimCity.
#   - Update of "Last Played/Time Played" in Origin.
#   Otherwise AFAIK there are no big gains with this (jre).
# * Origin's license text itself is not visible.
#   But I can see it in Debian's wine (jre).
# * Sometimes graphic glitches.
#   (I guess depending on certain hardware, jre.)

Quote from jre

I just used this script and after instaling Origin I got errors about dlls:

err:module:import_dll Library MSVCP120.dll (which is needed by L"C:\\Program Files\\Origin\\Origin.exe") not found
err:module:import_dll Library MSVCR120.dll (which is needed by L"C:\\Program Files\\Origin\\Origin.exe") not found

err:module:LdrInitializeThunk Main exe initialization for L"C:\\Program Files\\Origin\\Origin.exe" failed, status c0000135

After I clicked next I got a fatal error:

09/27/15 15:37:10 - [main] Fatal: Failed to patch Qt5Network.dll to enable QTcpSocket buffering.

Anyone help?

Add in line 77:

POL_Call POL_Install_vcrun2013
 
Edit line 54 (there is NO space between = and the version number, although it might look otherwise. Just update the version number):
WORKINGWINEVERSION="1.7.51"
 
Remove line 109-137 (patching isn't necessary since Wine 1.7.35), ignore the message to not log in the first time.
 
This should fix your current issues, but I fear you'll have other issues while installing Origin then, see https://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=26175.

I hope I helped somebody out with runing our beloved city simulator on Linux cheeky

EDIT:I just found a new bug/error thing.When you click play in Origin and the green "play" button in the game's launcher, a broken black window shows up and takes most of the screen. This message appears a few times:

err:ole:CoInitializeEx Attempt to change threading model of this apartment from apartment threaded to multi-threaded

I fixed it by enabling the "virtual screen" option in winecfg.

EDIT 2:This error still appears but the game is working great-expect for the fact I am stuck in single player mode.
