I'm just not doing too well on this. I run set up for the game with wine, it gets almost to the end of install, a little past after asking me if I want to install direct X 9. Direct X 9 seems to complete installation, I can't tell, but the installation crashes, stops short. I've looked online for help, but I need extra help. Please help me out?

I'm sorry if I didn't give enough details, I want to be clear with you, because I need to know what to do. Can any one give me a process , step for step to try and help walk me through it. I've been on Windows most my life so I' m really lost. [/i]

you need to give Wine version and terminal output...

if your using some 3rd party Wine app like Crossover, Wineskin, PlayOnMac, WineBottler, etc... and not the normal compile yourself command line Wine, then you need to go to those products site for support and not here.

If you can, upgrade to Snow Leopard or Lion...

Second, you never mentioned the name of the program nor where you
found Wine nor its version number.

version 1.2.3 and bottler. I don't know how to say terminal.

And I have wine bottler, thats what I can start with. I'll try anything just to get it working. I was playing on Windows , a copy my brother game me but that copy stopped working for whatever reason and now I can't boot in windows on my laptop.

I simply ran install, installed direct X , FLAWLESS INSTALL but I seem to not be able to run it. I don't think it's because I screwed up, but maybe I need to make some sort of running config file?

Everything looks fine, set up even starts up But I can't play it yet. Do I need to bottle something before I can play the game? I just used wine to install it. I didn't make a configuration file to run it.

WineBottler is not supported here, as are no third party applications.
Also, WineBottler is considered abandonware. Wine 1.2.3 is not
supported as a newer release of Wine exists.

Suggestion: If you are on a Mac Intel computer, use MacPorts or Fink
to install Wine.
