Newbie: What is 'quartz'?

Post by Iggy »

Hi there!
Being absolutley new to wine, I'm having some difficulties: I'd like to install Emergency 4 and the instructions in AppDB say I need to run

Code: Select all

WINEDLLOVERRIDES="quartz,devenum=n" regsvr32 quartz
WINEDLLOVERRIDES="quartz,devenum=n" regsvr32 devenum
WINEDLLOVERRIDES="quartz,devenum=n" wine Em4.exe
I installed Emergency, but the installer failed to install DirectX. So I installed DirectX manually following these instructions.
But executing

Code: Select all

WINEDLLOVERRIDES="quartz,devenum=n" regsvr32 quartz
gives the following error:

Code: Select all

Failed to load DLL quartz
So where do I get the quartz DLL and how do I install it? Thanks for your help, Iggy.

Outside howtos are not supported here, the one you followed is over 4 years old, and installing all of directx is not recommended.

Reinstall your app to a clean wineprefix, do not install directx, and use winetricks to install quartz and devenum.
