Skyrim ThuuMic on 1.4rc6

[Jenia]

I was hoping to get tips before I ruin my current WINE prefix...

Here's the situation:
Linux Mint 11, 32bit
WINE version is 1.4rc6 (compiled from source, not from repository)

I installed Skyrim. Current installed Skyrim executable version is 1.4.21

I have downloaded, but not installed, ThuuMic, which is a mod that lets you talk into the microphone to execute game commands (the shouts).

I was trying to read and understand their documentation to make sure I know what I'm doing - it didn't go well, so I'm posting here.

There was something about Visual Basic Power Packs (which I have no idea about) being required, .NET 4 required (which I understand doesn't work right now except under special circumventions), and that it relies heavily on the Windows Speech Recognition thing (of which there is a Linux alternative, I think, but I doubt is compatible).

Since the installer forces some of these things... Would appreciate any tips from local experts... Or anyone who understands this better than I do, really...

Due to not having any replies, bump!

Updated to 1.4

.NET 4 required , and that it relies heavily on the Windows Speech Recognition thing.

Both of those will not work on Wine. So what your question?

If there's a way to circumvent the need for them? Like maybe get them partially installed?

Not really. You can't run .net code without having .net installed. For Speech Recognition, if your program really uses it, there is no way to trick it into thinking it's present. It also have to function.
