I tried to test Age3 again today with wine 1.0RC5 and the problem with the
startup is still there. The first run works but to run the game again I have to
delete the abovementioned XML file. To get age3 running (only with first run) I
copied d3dx9_36.dll to the system32 dir.
As Stefan suggested I tried also to install the 9.0c directx runtime but
without success the installation prompted "Internal system error".
So at this point you can only play age3 when you remove the XML file
beforehead.
How about the workaround could it be merged into future wine versions? I didn't
try the patch because compiling is still very confusing for me.
But it seems to me that this startup bug has nothing to do with the dx-runtime.
Why would it then run for the first time?
