I have bad news. I went down to 0.9.55, where other bugs started to kick in ever growing amounts. I think that this is unsolvable in wine; it never worked. In discussions of Windows users there are some workarounds, but those don't seem to work in wine. It turns out the bug sits in the game :/ . All I can hope for is that the Heroes community will come up with something. I can do nothing about it. Bisecting is impossible because of crossfading of other, young-age-related bugs. However, the time is not wasted entirely - I learned some new tricks. Thank you for cooperation and support.
Someone here on bugzilla mentioned that Wine 0.9.0 doesn't have this problem, have you tested this specific version?
In PlayOnLinux, which I use, the oldest is 0.9.7. This particular version had broken start-up, so I chose 0.9.10, then 0.9.20, and so on. In wine SourceForge the oldest is 0.9.19. I can check some of the oldest releases in POL.
