Still present in wine-1.3.30-102-g8f8e86e
Backtrace: =>0 0x007a6fe1 in low-level engine (+0x6fe1) (0x0032fc9c)
Empire Earth is one of those fussy apps that requires you to either cd to the program directory or use wine start /unix to run it. That backtrace is what you get when you don't. Not a Wine bug.
The game will also crash on start without winetricks directmusic; that may be a duplicate of one of the other directmusic bugs, but I don't know which one. That's still present in 1.7.36; tested with GOG version of the game.
