I just found a dirty hack that makes the game work. Its pretty dirty, so it
will certainly affect other apps, however, with this, The Sims 3 doesnt crash
and I can play it (no crashes yet).
Id submit a patch to this, but I dont know how to do them! So, ill just mention
how I did it. In the source of wine 1.1.26, modify the file dlls/ntdll/time.c
In line 220 of that file, add this line:
day=1;
So the final code around line 220 looks like this:
/* done */
day=1;
Time->QuadPart = (((((LONGLONG) day * HOURSPERDAY +
Then compile, install, and it should work. From what I can see, this is a
pretty dirty hack, since I override all the code used to specify the day in the
date. However, it fixes the game (for now...). Hope this info can help someone
create a decent fix.
