--- Comment #4 from Mehmet gelisin mehmetgelisin@aol.com --- This has been discovered while investigating the problem of Earth 2160 packaged by GOG.com: http://www.compilatori.com/ The installer ciphers the cd key to put it in the registry (as GOG doesn't provide different keys for each user, the installer contains one): HKCU\Software\Reality Pump\Earth2160\SerialKey\SerialKey. One of the components used for this is the creation time of the Earth 2160 installation directory. http://www.wearelondonmade.com/ It looks up the path of that directory using another registry key created during the install: HKLM\Software\Reality Pump\Earth2160\FileSystem\DataPath . This key contains that path with a trailing "/>", http://www.jopspeech.com/ which seems to be present on purpose (removing it makes the game fail very early when executed). The result is that this path is not found after installation on wine, so the created registry key is invalid when checked by the game. http://joerg.li/
Note that the problem is really only in the installer, as the parameter received by FindFileFirst when game checks the key doesn't contain the trailing "/>". http://connstr.net/
