DotA2 on Steam from Ubuntu via Wine: Can't launch the game since last update

[cm-t]

The following bug report is a x-post and it looks we are many having this issue. I didn't know about this forum before.



Hi,

I am using wine (installed from playonlinux and its ppa on ubuntu 12.04 LTS).
I did it since DotA2 is not availaible on Steam on linux.
I run DotA2 with the launching option "-nod3d9ex" (supose to diseable some directX things that wine can't handle or something like that).
It is working well, I did about fifty hours of games.

Thursday, after 1 or 2 games, I entered a game where nobody was able to buy item, someone deconnected and says he updated and should works. I deconnect then, and can see steam downloading updates.
I relaunch DotA2 when it is done and i have as usual the steam popup that says: "Preparation au lancement de DotA 2", but then I have a windows popup with a title of "Launcher Error", a "OK" button and with the message:

Failed to load the launcher DLL:
Message 0x%1 not found in file %2

I tryed to verify the data of the game in the property tab local, with succes, but I keep having this issue. I even tryed to reinstall DotA2, not working too.

(NB: in this screenshot of the popup, it is ubuntu 'ambiance' styled because I have added a msstyle into wine windows property)

Any help welcomed !


EDIT: I just tryed now, and it asked me to wait the end of news updates beore the launch, i waited, but still have the issue :/


NB: WAS WORKING BEFORE THE UPDATE

PS: Please tell me if I am posting this in the wrong place (sub-forum/website/?), I really want to have this issue solved.

It is same issue with "DotA2 Test"

I can confirm that. Tried the common workarounds regarding similar errors (verifying integrity, deleting bin folders, reinstalling the whole game etc.; nothing wine specific though), none of it worked.

[cm-t]

Hi lml,

can you confirm that sosi waginu wenok 's solution works ? (I can't make it :'( )

Edit: that worked finnaly, I didnt understood at first read. cf ↓

[cm-t]

Hi,

This is how we can fix it from wine:

1. If youu are not using PlayOnLinux, launch wine-setting
Else follow these 2 step:
a.
b.



2. Then :

[lml]

Awesome, that worked! Thank you so much!

[qcuk]

I don't have dbghelp.

[cm-t]

Hello !

I'm using Wine as well to play on Dota2, I don't see any problem launching the game with this new update. I haven't played any game yet, but for now, everything is okay =)
