Hello George,

I guess you are talking about this Github project:

https://github.com/beat-saber-modding-group/BeatSaber-IPA-Reloaded

Specifically:

https://github.com/nike4613/UnityDoorstop-BSIPA/tree/0f76cf26a2f84c6cd82a1c7a1d773c10be6ba233

--- quote ---
Doorstop is a tool to execute managed assemblies inside Unity as early as
possible!
...
Custom proxy functions

Doorstop's proxy is flexible and allows to be load as different DLLs. You can
modify which functions you want to proxy by adding/removing function names in
Proxy/proxydefs.txt and running proxygen/proxy_gen.py ../Proxy/proxydefs.txt to
generate an appropriate proxy functions.

The current set up allows to use the proxy for the following DLLs:

    winhttp.dll (All exports)
    iphlpapi.dll (Only GetIpAddrTable)
--- quote ---

I don't have the game to test with so I looked at the source code of the
mod/injector. It seems BSIPA's variant of Doorstop provides its own
'winhttp.dll' which is used as injector "proxy" dll. I guess the injector's
'winhttp' from private path is not picked up due to the Wine builtin having the
same name?

That would be still a valid Wine bug. There are a couple of Wine bugs of the
same class related to preferring builtin when a "native" dll of same name from
working directory should have been loaded.

* bug 14980 ("Wine does not automatically use the riched20 installed by Office
2003/2007/2010/2013/2016")
* bug 43472 ("R-Link 2 Toolbox crashes on startup (Wine's 'packager.dll' is
preferred over native, causing failure to load app provided library with same
name)")
* bug 45551 ("InstallShield exits with 0x80004002, cannot find
SECURITY.MySetFileSecurity (Wine's 'security.dll' is preferred over native,
causing failure to load app provided library with same name)")

Last time that kind of problem was discussed here:

https://www.winehq.org/pipermail/wine-devel/2019-April/thread.html#143773
("[PATCH] packager: Prefer native version.") -> no indication/conclusion on the
proper solution

Reopening and refining some fields.
