Wine1.6 application cannot locate it's DLL

[Awatatah]

I am running Ubuntu 14.04 32-bit w/ wine1.6. I am trying to run SimCity 2013 which I know works perfectly fine with any Windows machine. When I run the exe it returns:

"Error Code: [4000] SimCity could not find the EA WebKit DLL. SimCity will now exit."

The dll is named "eawebkit.dll"

I tried using winetricks and add the dll and select every option available to no avail.

The file is in the correct folder in order to run just as another machine running Win 7 does. My thoughts are, there is some configuration file possibly needing altered. I think the program is looking outside the .wine/drive_c parameters.

Any thoughts? Tricks? Bag of bones??

Start by upgrading Wine to the latest development release. If the problem persists, post terminal output.

I tried wine1.7 with same results. His do I terminal the process?

I figured out how to output the process see attached. In short it is ending

Awatatah common issue end of logs are normally worthless to us. If it only short post the complete log. Lines with err: at start are normally more useful than fixme lines. Majority of cases applications run even with fixme messages.

Too tough of a question????

I solved this on my own after 5 days of troubleshooting.

Installed via PlayLinux and choose wine1.5.20 version for the application. Now it runs with out the error!!
