S4League

[3nforcer]

Hi there,

I try to run the one and only game i need from windows without a linux version, its called S4League. So the problem is, it wouldn't download the client, but i have downloaded and installed the game on the same system with wine 2 days ago. But i reinstalled the game and wine because the updater didn't worked very well, so after updating i got a few messages with strange characters and after them i got a window to report errors without any characters, so i think there was a problem during loading the strings.

So back to the current problem:

It wouldn't initialize the download, the first time i tried that it didn't worked at one step, so the game downloaded the first part and then it closed in case of an error or failur during updating, i started it a second time and it continued the download, after them i could install the game and upgrade it.

According to AppDB it's using cheat-protection system that doesn't work on Wine: http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.p ... &iId=18758

and what's the way out then? how to make it work properly?

Ask whomever made that game to use copy protection schema, compatible with Wine.
