--- Comment #34 from sanjac@rocketmail.com ---
Is that a game option? Does turning it off help?
Yes, as I already stated in comment 31.
Is this still an issue in current (1.7.51 or newer) wine?
No idea, and I doubt you'll get much interest in this bug now, because an enhanced edition of the game with a native Linux version has been released in October 2014 - most people have probably switched to that.
Of course if you really want to follow up on this bug, I can re-download the original win32 version from my GOG.com account and install it again just to test it with the newest Wine.
But it might make more sense to just close this bug.
