I'm trying to play NFSW using ubuntu 14.04 (64bit) with wine 1.7.38 (latest available binaries)
So downloaded the setup_nfsw.exe from http://world.needforspeed.com/download
these are the packages needed to run the game:
(the setup/GameLauncher probably needs just dotnet20)$ winetricks dotnet20 ie7 glsl-enable d3dx9 d3dx9_26 d3dx9_28 d3dx9_31 d3dx9_35 d3dx9_36 d3dx9_39 d3dx9_42 gdiplus pngfilt vcrun2008 wininet wsh56vb xmllite
(I setup a new WINEPREFIX and WINEARCH=win32)
the setup runs fine, but when it starts GameLauncher.exe i see this:
A window pops up 'no servers available' nothing more (expecting a login window)[...]

It does connect to a https server and seems to transfers some data (tcpdump)
So the connection kind of works...
Is anyone able to recreate this? I'm not sure its WINE's fault, (it worked 2 weeks ago)
Does it work with 1.7.43? I didn't manage to compile it myself (yet, working on it)
Does the Login screen appear when GameLauncher.exe starts? (no need to install the full game)
thx in advance!
