i rarely use wine but i found this fun game i wanted to play thats an executable, anyhow. its this fun little side scrolling shooter. at http://www.morningtoast.com/feature/zombieroad/

when i try it under wine it loads about three quarters of a way and gives me this popup that says: failed to initiate Direct Music Audio. it sounds like some direct x thing i dont have any idea about...

next popup says: unexpected error when running the game

(which more than likely is because of the audio not running right)

any help would be appreciated, if anybody can get this to work, like i said its a worthy open source dloadable game. i wasted a good 30 min at my buddies house playing it... very addictive. well, thanks in advanced.

What version of Wine are you using? I just tried this in 1.0-rc2 and it worked perfectly (except for the lack of sound). It appears from the errors I got that the missing sound is actually due to an incomplete feature in Wine.

BTW - It is not an open source game at all, but it is free (as in beer).
