--- Comment #49 from Paul Gofman gofmanp@gmail.com --- I started this game once again and now after some game auto update in runs ok with Wine staging 4.0-rc4. So it looks like the initialization was added in a game client update.
The game still does not run with mainstream Wine due to the known staged issue (missing formats in windowscodecs).
