And it should be "> filename 2>&1" not only "> filename", as without "2>&1" only standard output, not standard error is written to the file.

WINEDEBUG=+ddraw,+d3d7 wine settlers.exe  > test.log 2>&1

As this files tend to become huge, it'd be good to extract only the last 1000 or 10000 lines (whatever is needed to see what's wrong). You can do this via

tail test.log -n 1000 > test2.log

and compress the output via bzip2

bzip2 test2.log

Or as one-liner

tail test.log -n 1000 | bzip2 > test2.log.bz2


Ciao,
