it stucks here
Are you sure this isn't just a temporary internet connection glitch or overloaded server problem? Have you tried logging into a different server?

I have been reading this topic for a while and I have to say to you one thing: Please listen to the others.

Simply asking if there is a way to do a URL which points to dozens of different items is not a good way to ask a question. While I am against all radicalist 'neticket' apologists, I believe there must be a set of things that both the one being helped and the one helping must follow.

That applies to insistent, nonsense bumping followed by big bold letters. I also understand that you do not understand much of what you are doing, but, please, even with language barriers, try to ask concise, direct-yet-understandable questions, instead of simply mumbling "give me help".

Now, forgive me for that but I have been seeing too much of that recently around here -- to the topic:

You clearly have no idea whatsoever about what you have been doing (I've been there, so that's not your fault). Wine-doors is not supported in this forum because it is not directly made by the developers of wine (even though some smart-brain decided to name it wine-doors to confuse people).

Whenever something doesn't work you are 'required' by the forums to post console-output. If it is a small output you can paste it here. If it isn't, you can use pastebin or something similar and point 'us' to it. I would advise you to do that.

Secondly, I think you've pretty much fiddled too much with your wine and should try to start from scratch. Uninstall wine-doors and make a backup of your $HOME/.wine folder to keep your settings -- that way you'll probably be conserving the game's definitions that made it 'load'. After backing up that folder, delete it and start wine. From now on you can use winetricks to do whatever you think worked with it (I'm guessing you used winetricks d3dx9 which did...well...'something'.). After that you can try to install the game again. BUT, paste the output FIRST and do this later (if needed).

Also, a bit off-topic:

Using VirtualBox is a peace of cake if you have a valid windows-license-and-cd to install. But it has nothing to do with Wine. You see, VirtualBox emulates a whole computer (it 'pretends' to be a computer), while Wine does not pretend to be a computer -- if it pretends anything is to be Windows, but it doesn't emulate anything, so the two can live without eachother just fine. What VirtualBox does with WineD3D is use it to enable it to run faster with accelerated graphics, but that is still very experimental.

Do understand that wine-doors and PlayOnLinux are not supported here. If you think that Wine-doors helped your application work, go ask in their forums to see if they can help you. You can even point them to this thread to show them relevant information, but do not continue to ask quiestions until you have stopped using wine-doors.

Well, waiting for console output,

do you know what you did to me you made the message appear again after i have done all of this to make it disappear

I was intending to 'clean' your Wine install so that you could try to calmly think what you will do, forgive me for not stating that.

I see you have already done that and have started to try and install it again. By the way, you could have said that the installer worked, I just re-read the thread and got that it must've worked. :)

To try and provide a better support, I'd advise you to write a text where you report what/how you did anything (for example, when you said you had solved a problem, what did you do?) and why you did that. This might help understand why somethings worked or not and you would only benefit from that. You could also take a closer look at: http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.p ... 5&sAllBugs again (I know you have already and it is pretty much the same as what your Ubuntu-guide said).

By the way, I personally think you should use pastebin for such big chunks of text. Simply putting individual chunks on each topic doesn't lessen then ;)
i have installed winetricks then reinstalling my game using wine-doors

Which particular message? What did you exactly do? Where's console output? Where are your manners? Hadn't you got past the loading problem again? Can't you please make everything that is going on clear?

Nobody "did" anything to you. You are responsible for your own actions.

If you actually followed jorl17's advice (which I seriously doubt, given your abysmal record in following directions prior to this), then you have a backup of your old ~/.wine and can restore the working settings from that. If you didn't, you have no one but yourself to blame.

Thank you, I am sure that didn't cost you that much, and it might help the others understand what is going on :)

As to what is directly related to the error I can not help you, but there are people here which are much more skillful than I am and might know what to do.

Once again, thank you, let's see what comes out of this.

Are you implying that you actually fixed being stuck on the loading screen, or do you still have to fix this? I fail to understand you there.

And Ubuntu itself shouldn't be able to make your internet slower in any way. Just try downloading something, or run a speedtest if you want to be sure.

I would also suggest running a test with the -c option of around 10, to see if there are any faulty modules or hardware failures dropping packets or something similar -- just in case :)

I'd have thought that was obvious - AFAIK all ping implementations use
the same options - even the DOS one.

man ping

Of course. What else would the game be trying to connect to?

A hostname isn't given just by that. A hostname is something like xxx.yy or www.xxx.yy or www.xxx.zzz.yyy. For instance:

google.com
winehq.org
reactos.org
openttd.org
php.net


You need to find out what is the hostname of the server you are trying to connect to. After that, you can try the ping command on it. If you *DON'T* know what the hostname is, you can try to directly ping/telnet the ip (Because a host is nothing more than that -- something that redirects to an IP. For instance, if you try to ping winehq.org, you'll see it's IP in between '[' and ']').

By the way, if this *IS* a problem on their side, have you tried searching their forums to see if they're going through some changes or the like? Has someone been experiencing the same kind of issues?

Are you *sure* 'Fire' is really the name of the server your app is
trying to contact? That seems unlikely since, while that might be the
name of a server on your home network, its certainly not the name of any
server outside your own network on the wider Internet.
