--- Comment #12 from Rafał Mużyło galtgendo@o2.pl --- So, I've got a few very impolite things to say.
So, I've just tested this with 7.4 (haven't tried 7.3) and it started to work (even though the initial menu delay is high).
Why am I pissed though ?
Because I'm close to certain, that given comment 4, this wasn't due to any change in wine. What did change was that I grudgingly switched to a mingw build due to testing a different bug and while it made no noticeable difference for that bug, it 'fixed' things here.
FFS, this game isn't using anything special. It's dll loading code is pure standard old ruby calls. Why does mingw switch affects anything here ?
(also, during that other bug, I've learned that relay results might be misleading, so this might be something more complicated than a simple race)
