Created attachment 38080 [details] Attachment from cracked file of Gears Of War
I'm not sure we really want to fix cracked applications, or even try.
I've used "wine Startup2.exe +msxml +tid &> log.txt" to start and log output from game, i don't know if this is correct syntax. The splash screen appears, but with no buttons to click, so the game would launch. Sorry for my English. As far as i can see this log file, there is no msxml errors. Good bug hunting guys, the game was tested on Wine 1.3.35.
This is not a correct syntax, you didn't enable a channel. You need to set WINEDEBUG variable, do it like 'WINEDEBUG=+msxml,+tid wine Startup2.exe &> log.txt'.
