            Bug ID: 43567
           Summary: Vietcong - game crashes during radiocalls
           Product: Wine
           Version: 2.14
          Hardware: x86-64

Vietcong - terminal log

Vietcong crashes when radiocall icon is shown. This bug is also reproduciable
on Windows > Vista, but it works on Windows XP. There exists community tool:
VCStarter, which fixes this for newer Windows and also for Wine. I have spoke
with VCStarter creator and he told me that the game uses some dirty assembler
in that part (maybe part of anticheat protection or no-cd crack?). I have
doubts if it is really Wine bug, but since this game works on Windows <= XP, it
should also work on Wine (with Win XP compatibility).

PS: You will not be able tu run this game probably because of bug #9337. As a
workaround, you can use VCStarter (version 1.7 only, older versions did not fix
the bug) or patch from bug #39057 - all this is described in bug #9337
PPS: While patch from bug #39057 fixes bug #9337 crashing for all Vietcong
versions, VCStarter works only with Vietcong 1.60 (so it does not work with
Vietcong demo version).
