--- Comment #16 from Dmitry Timoshkov dmitry@codeweavers.com 2008-02-13 04:49:39 --- There is no native ddraw/directx dlls loaded in the log. That might be a registry that makes a difference then. Can you keep original registry files and compare them with 'diff -u' with the files after directx install? Or save registry files after directx install, and copy them after the game installation, and see if that makes a difference.
