Magic Online III on Wine 1.0.1

[Giacecco]

All, I am trying using Wizard of the Coast's Magic Online III software for Windows on my Dell Mini 9 running Ubuntu 9.04 Netbook Remix.

I have read in several other (but older) threads that the application worked fine on older versions of wine, once a minor issues with some fonts was managed.

In my case, and using the latest Ubuntu wine package, I had no issues with fonts, the installation completes gracefully, but then launching the actual software ends in a big crash of the application. The output is pasted below.

Any advice? Thank you in advance,

Giacecco

If you're talking about version 3, you're out of luck -- the following CodeWeavers Application Compatibility page shows it's rating as Gargage:

Thanks Mark, very bad news then. I've checked on Cedega, too, and it is declared as 'working with issues'... sounds like lost of headache.

[rvndrk3233]

you need Mono 1.2 or .Net 2.0 and wine 1.3. .NET 3.5 will crash(DO NOT INSTALL) and so will LIVE downloader from within winetricks.

There is a missing C library i might be able to attach.Goes into c:/windows/system

furthermore, configure(had to do by hand b/c of winetricks alpha/redraw issues) opengl instead of gdi and enable the few video tweaks that playonlinux does.need to get into regedit to do this.

I got Steam to run Crysis 2 on INTEL hardware with this trick..NOT BAD,EH?
..and it runs fine.

Im getting the Magick card updates now, but its a big SECOND download..almost as slow as ShowUP /5Street, which runs with the C package, but not on this screen size, as does another steam game.

HIGHLY recommend STEAM if your gonna play games on linux.PlayonLinux also.
i have gotten COD4 to work by hand with wine, but PlayonLinux saves time and hassle, so check there FIRST if an install is available.

DO NOT add in GDI or GDI+ modules, and start fresh.(BEST ADVICE)
.NET does not seem to work for me, Im limited to MONO compatible apps.

I run other apps also(Adobe/nook...), and have a valid config now after hours of headache.
