Summary: SimCity 2000 does not start from a fresh install Product: Wine Version: 1.1.37 Platform: x86 OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: thetorpedodog+winehq@ttdi.us
When I start SimCity 2000 after installing it fresh, I am presented with the following dialog:
===== /^\ Error Opening File / ! \ c:\Program Files\Maxis\SimCity 2000\Data\DATA_usa.DAT ~~~~~ All or part of the path is invalid. =====
After a series of other error dialogs ("The newspaper is on strike", then 3 "Error Opening File" dialogs) the game window is created with 0 height. Attempting to create a city results in a black screen with garbled bitmaps.
I'm on Ubuntu 9.10 with Wine 1.1.37 from the PPA.
