sometimes it fails to start, sometimes it does (generally with terminal) - i have not properly tested this, all i know is that it worked (from terminal), shut down computer, tried again - didn't work, rebooted, it did (from terminal)

CP, can you reproduce the problem in the demo as well?

--- Comment #7 from Austin English austinenglish@gmail.com 2013-11-13 16:48:08 CST --- This is your friendly reminder that there has been no bug activity for 2 years. Is this still an issue in current (1.7.6 or newer) wine? If so, please attach the terminal output in 1.7.6 (see http://wiki.winehq.org/FAQ#get_log).

--- Comment #8 from Charles P charlespigott@googlemail.com 2013-11-14 14:26:47 CST --- Has it really been 2 years? Good lord. Unfortunately, i am unable to test at the moment (_not_ unable to reproduce) so am unaware of the state of this bug

--- Comment #10 from Austin English austinenglish@gmail.com --- I found my old CD and tried this in wine-1.7.43-41-g845b50d, starts up every time for me, but I'm not getting any sound. Haven't dug into that yet.
Charles, are you able to retest?

--- Comment #11 from Charles P charlespigott@googlemail.com --- Heh, 4 years now.
I dug out my CD and tried this again - no luck, I'm afraid Clean install of Pharaoh (& Cleopatra expansion) results in the attached console output. Just outputs that but nothing else happens

--- Comment #13 from Charles P charlespigott@googlemail.com --- NOPE! Completely wrong
The game does the above if you don't start it from it's own directory, but it works fine (sound and all) if you start it from .wine/drive_c/SIERRA/Pharaoh (or wherever the executable is, I presume)
Switching to windowed mode doesn't seem to work, but that'll be a completely separate issue

Yes, that's very important. Many applications will fail otherwise, as you found out :).
Note that the game also needs win9x for sound to work, but it seems you figured that out.
Have fun.
