           Summary: GTA V crashing when loading the online mode
           Product: Wine
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: x86-64
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown

      Distribution: ---

Until a few days ago, the GTA V online mode could be started directly with
Steam Play for Linux/Proton without any problems. Latest Proton 3.16-6. This
worked until January 11th. Since January 12th no one can start GTA V in online
mode anymore:

The Singleplayer works perfectly.

I have the same problems. If you start the game directly in online mode, it
loads for a while and crashes. A page appears in the Social Club client that
indicates an exception error.

There is a workaround that someone posted at Github, with which you can start
the game. By a STRACE on the GTAV.exe the abort is prevented when loading the
game and the online mode starts correctly:

That´s the workaround:

1. In gnome terminal run:
until ps -C GTA5.exe >/dev/null; do sleep 1; echo "Waiting for GTA5.exe
process..."; done; strace -p $(ps -C GTA5.exe -o pid=)

2. start GTA5 via Steam (could be directly to Online mode)

I work with Linux Mint 19.1, Kernel 4.19.9, AMD Ryzen 5 1600X, AMD rx580 8GB,
16GB DDR4, Mesa 19.0 (Padoka PPA). But all other players with different
configurations have the same problem (see Github).
