             Bug #: 32248
           Summary: Football Manager 2013 crashes unless
                    SetNamedPipeHandleState is patched
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.5.17
          Platform: x86
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: kernel32
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.org
        ReportedBy: darkael at gmail.com

error popups

http://store.steampowered.com/app/207890/ <- demo available here

Tested with 1.5.17 and latest git revision (098b3c72941c81)

When trying to run the Football Manager 2013 demo, the game crashes with two
Fatal Error popups about SetNamedPipeHandleState and ConnectNamedPipe (see
attached screenshot, I can't select the text).

After some research I found out that the game doesn't crash if I change the
function SetNamedPipeHandleState to return true instead of false (see attached
patch). I have no idea what this does, but the game runs flawlessly with this
change, although it takes quite a lot of time to start.

This may be related to bug 17273, but the patches posted there look a lot
scarier.
