    [SOLVED] shell script wont work for LOMSE

    when I run these two commands, the game lords of magic special edition will run better than it even does in windows vista (vista has a speed problem)

    Code:
    cd ~/.wine/drive_c/SIERRA/LOMSE/
    Code:
    wine lomse.EXE

    if I run this code, the game will run with serious gameplay flaws

    Code:
    wine ~/.wine/drive_c/SIERRA/LOMSE/lomse.EXE
    if I write this shell script, the game will not run at all
    Code:
    #!/bin/sh
    wine ~/.wine/drive_c/SIERRA/LOMSE/lomse.EXE
    neither will this code

    Code:
    #!/bin/sh
    cd ~/.wine/drive_c/SIERRA/LOMSE
    wine lomse.EXE

    does anyone know why this would happen?

    Re: shell script wont work for LOMSE

    I solved the problem. Wine runs into a myriad of problems when first running LOMSE, and uses the terminal to autocorrect everything. so I piped the command through a terminal emulator, in this case, xterm. everything works better now

    Code:
     #!/bin/sh
    
    cd /home/mykola/.wine/drive_c/SIERRA/LOMSE/
    
    wine lomse.EXE | xterm
