           Summary: Half-life 2 font issue with 0.9.48 (works 0.9.40)
           Product: Wine
           Version: 0.9.48.
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: wine-misc

Hello,

Half-Life 2: Episode Two main menu and game fonts are messed up when using WINE
0.9.48. Fonts will work on WINE 0.9.40.

HL2-specific fonts are replaced with some other font and main menu fonts look
"jagged" when compared to 0.9.40. During game play crosshair and HUD fonts are
using some other font than HL2crosshair.ttf and halflife2.ttf. Game crashes
when changing weapon. However, HL2 console font looks far better on 0.9.48.

Please see following screenshots.

Going back to WINE 0.9.40 fixes fonts, but there are some game crash issues.
Version 0.9.40 is the last one which works, 0.9.41 introduces this font
problem.

Also Half-Life 2 and Half-Life 2: Episode One has this same problem with all
WINE versions starting with 0.9.41.

I'm using HL2:EP2 with SteamEmu and starting game with following command line:
wine hl2.exe -dxlevel 81 -steam -game ep2 -novid -console -heapsize 512000
Having extracted GCF-files has no effect on this, tested on HL2:EP1.


I tried to fix problem with following steps.
1) by copying HL2-fonts to KDE ".fonts" dir. They will show up on KDE and
Control Center, but this does not fix issue.
2) Deleting all duplicate fonts which are included with WINE from windows font
directory. No effect.
3) "Reinstalling" wine by deleting ".wine"-dir and recreating it with winecfg.
Installed only HL2: Episode Two. No effect.
