This is your friendly reminder that there has been no bug activity for 6 months. Is this still an issue in current (1.3.16 or newer) wine?
I finally got around to trying this again. Just installed wine 1.3.29, tried PGII again, and had same behavior as before: blank black map screen. After copying the MAP directory off the CD and into the drive_c/panzer2 directory, the game works as expected.
As I recall it, the installer didn't copy the directory on Windows either so to increase performance (and remove the need for having the CD in the drive) you had to do it yourself. But if the directory was copied without removing the read-only attribute on both directory and files, this behavior was also seen.
Maybe this should be marked as an original misfeature and just included in an installation FAQ?
