Using wine-1.2-rc2, the patched version of Gothic II: tNotR (2.6) and a
NoCD-fix (german; Gothic2.exe and ar.exe are changed), I can start the game and
load my savegames, so the game works. 
I have to click away some error windows titled "SmartHeap Library" with the
message "MEM_BAD_POINTER" (since wine-1.1.43; I think I should create a bug
report about that..) and the Program Error window informing me that Vdfs32g.exe
crashed.
soundEnabled=1 in System/Gothic.ini works,
musicEnabled=1 seems to cause an "Application Error" window although the .dlls
are in place.

When I try to run the same version of Gothic II without a NoCD-fix - then with
the original CD of course - nothing happens, not any line of terminal output.

I'm not sure about the following: 
When you get to the intro videos but the game crashes shortly afterwards,
delete or rename your Gothic.ini and let the game create a new one. I did so
and switching between the old and new .inis shows that only the new one works.
It might be another setting I made though.. but maybe that's it.
