help running TES IV:Oblivion

[nashod]

so I installed wine using Ubuntu software center (so I assume it's the latest version but I'm not sure) and tried running a couple of games with it but when i installed TES IV:Oblivion well... the installation went smoothly the patching too but when i run the game the luncher goes up normally but when i press play wine's virtual desktop closes and the game doesn't run i tried running the game directly but still nothing so what should i do to play?

Start by finding out. Open a terminal and type

Code: Select all

wine --version

Let us know what it says.

[nashod]

Does this file exist anywhere on your system?

Log in as root and do the following:

Code: Select all

cd /
find / -name tes4r.dll

If the file does not exist on your system, you will have to find it,
hopefully on the Oblivion distribution media (preferred). If it on your
system, please advise where it is at.

Do NOT run Wine as root (this creates problems.)

This error maybe caused by the first one.
