------- Additional Comments From Speeddymon@yahoo.com 2003-01-11 19:57 ------- This is not a bug in wine, but a "feature" in Battle.net. They check your copy of starcraft.exe (or the brod wars executable) to see if it is cracked or not.. Since yours is, it tells you that it is unable to determine the application version. You have a couple of options..
1) Go buy a new CD.. This isnt always the most feasible, but if you have the money to blow, why not? 2) Go buy a Game Doctor/Skip Doctor/Disc Doctor/etc.. This is a scratch repair kit that truely works. It uses a layer of water and a wheel to fill in the scratches on the surface of the disc.. You can get it at Best Buy. Word of caution on this one: It makes the surface of the disc a little hazy (from the water) so if you have an older CD Drive (anything slower than a 36x), dont use this one because it wont be able to read the cd.. 3) Find the bnet loader.. This is probably the best option if you want to continue using the patched version. There are a couple of sites you can get this from, but I cant list them here for legal reasons.. Just email me.. Only problem with this option is that the bnet loader doesnt work under wine (yet), so get that if you are running windows and/or the one I'm about to list.. 4) Linux-based bnet loader.. This was originally made by me, but since I lost the computer that it was on, I dont have it anymore. If you know bash scripting, I can tell you how to make it again, if not, you will need to find someone that does, and have them email me, just ask around on the wine-devel list.
My email is above this post (click or hover the mouse over my name), any other comments or questions just email me, no need to flood the wine bugs list with unrelated stuff..
