Console output from wine while running Metal Fatigue

Game installs fine from the CDs, but needs a NO-CD crack to circumvent the copy
protection it has.
After applying the crack, the game starts successfully and the main menu
appears (the intro movie is skipped because of the unavailability of the video
codec, but that's not the problem here).
Various d3d7 errors are displayed on the shell (reported in the attachment) but
they are not blocking the menu from displaying and working correctly.
As soon as I choose to start a multiplayer game or a skirmish, the game shows a
screen for a bunch of seconds, then crashes to desktop.
If I choose to start a new campaign, I can select which campaign to start
(there are 3: Rimtech, Milagro and Neuropa), but, after this, the game crashes
to desktop because of an unhandled exception (as you can see in the log
attached).
I'm running on a Slamd64 12.0 machine, with a Athlon 64 FX 55 (single core)
CPU, 1GB RAM and an ATI Radeon X800XT (with 8.7 Catalyst  drivers). This same
crash occurs even on a HP Pavillion ze4900 laptop I have (Intel Celeron M 1.2
Ghz, 512 MB RAM, Intel GMA 82855 Graphics card) running Slackware 12.1, so I
believe it is not related only to a 64 bit enviroment or to ATI proprietary
graphics card drivers.
I tried installing the game in a clean WINEPREFIX, but this didn't change
anything.
I've set wine to run as "Windows 98" and "Windows XP", but the crash still
happens in both cases.
Tell me what information you need and I will provide it.
