World Of Tanks doesn't work anymore in the last OpenSuse Builds.

In the last OpenSuse builds Word Of Tanks doesn’t work anymore (last two months, or so).

when i start via Lutris, the game starts and then simply stops.


Monitored process exited.
Exit with return code 0
2022-12-10 13:56:07,707: Game still running (state: running)
2022-12-10 13:56:07,708: Stopping wot (wine)

if i start via Konsole using

wine WorldOfTanks.exe

The game starts, it loads correctly, but i see all servers off line.
I’m unable to connect, as if my internet connection is not working.

I have tried with firewall stopped, but situation is the same.

While the WGC (Wargaming Game Center) works, i can update the game.

In the past the game worked correctly either via Lutris, either via Konsole/wine.
If anyone has some idea, any suggestion will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Just in case the following is helpful…

Maybe consider posting there as well, since this is unlikely to be openSUSE-specific.

First of all, thanks for trying to help.

I have more feedback, maybe you have some idea.
I have an OpenSuse Tumbleweed on VirtualBox for testing purposes.
I have shared the WOT installation folder from Host machine and i am running successfully WOT from Virtualbox.
It is connecting and i am able to play. The fps is very bad though, as expected.
So it is some problem on my host machine.

From my host machine if i run via Konsole/wine i see this error between the various lines.

002c:err:winediag:getaddrinfo Failed to resolve your host name IP

i have googled but did not find a solution yet.

Regards.

Not sure that this is an issue as such. For example, I get the same when launching notepad.exe…

~> wine notepad.exe 002c:err:winediag:getaddrinfo Failed to resolve your host name IP 0108:fixme:imm:ImeSetActiveContext (0x36c200, 1): stub 0108:fixme:imm:ImmReleaseContext (00010058, 0036C200): stub 0050:fixme:imm:ImeSetActiveContext (0x16a760, 0): stub 0050:fixme:imm:ImmReleaseContext (0000000000010020, 000000000016A760): stub

Problem solved.

Solution i have found was on WineHQ forum .
https://forum.winehq.org/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=35484

i had to edit /etc/hosts file
i have modified line #12
was: 127.0.0.1 localhost
renamed to: 127.0.0.1 localhost mycomputername

to get my computer name i ran the command “hostname” in the Konsole

Now WOT is working.

Merry Christmas to everyone!
