I didn't had any background music, just popup message "Program will be terminated" and that's all. What Wine version did you use?
Just tried with WINE 3.5. Still the same.
The only thing I've changed to avoid a popup -- the Windows version is set to Windows 98
I did the same as you did, but same message. Strange.. I have succeeded running in virtual machine with win7 as guest, but had issues with mouse movements. In-game camera scrolling was horrible. The games in Wine like "Faces of War" and "Men of War" worked for me as expected. There has to be salvation with this good old game.
I've been running this game without issue up to wine 3.6 (haven't upgraded to 3.7 yet) after applying the patch mentioned for each wine version.
I wonder if it's possible to add a special registry key entry to enable this patch logic whenever running this game, and turn it off for other games.
FINALY!!!
I made it work!! I've patched wine 3.9 with heap management patch as mentioned link early and moved my patched wine to my ~/.PlayOnLinux/wine/linux-x86/ directory. I made settings on PlayOnLinux as followed: 1. In 'Wine version' is set to my patched Wine. 2. In winecfg 'Windows version' set to Windows 98. 3. In POL Display section 'Video Memory Size' to 1024.
And that's it!
Now this game is working without issues.
Thanks Zachary J, Sebastian Lackner and all members for helping me out and to all you great developers who created Wine!!
