           Summary: Half-Life fails in 20031212 release
           Product: Wine
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: other
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: critical
          Priority: P2
         Component: wine-files
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.com
        ReportedBy: brettholcomb at charter.net


I've tried half-life in 2003118 and 1212 releases.  It's a failure.  At one time
it worked - at least based on bug reports and other sites like Franks.  I did
the following.

1.  Install wine.
2.  Setup config, winecheck is happy.
3.  Tryed half life two ways
a) installed Half-Life from CD, couldn't update to 1.1.0.  Did wine hlupdate.exe
and it flashed a window very quickly (the screen blinked) and then returned to
the terminal window.
b) Used an existing HL install that was at 1.10 and worked under Winex.  

I can start HL once, get the menu, do config, and then load a game. However,
subsequent attempts cause HL to show the menu, then show an hourglass and never
allow me to do anything.

I have gone throught the troubleshooting guide.   The debug with +loaddll shows
nothing.
