------- Additional Comments From basilarchia@gmail.com 2006-08-11 09:44 ------- OK, thanks. I wasn't aware that it was supposed to work like that. Perhaps I installed wine incorrectly or didn't configure something I was supposed to configure. I see the dlls/wine3d3/ and I assume that is the directx part of wine you are talk about. (I also found http://sourceforge.net/projects/directxwine/ but assume that has been merged or deprecated).
I'm not expecting civ4 to actually work. For what it's worth I also tried to install it in the crossover product and cedega and it installed ok in cedega. cedega installed the directx from the cdrom.
