i have same problem, my German, English and Chinese simple version work
fine.but Chinese traditional crashed at start.
i think these is some fonts in windows system, which wt-library needs.

Note:
to do this you should make sure:
1 Watchtower library 2005/6/7 in your Windows system works good
2 you have double boot system in your computer the other one is MS Windows
3 if you don't, you must have a legal copy of MS windows(MS Windows
95/98/2000/2003/XP/Vista), then you have right to use all non-free fonts from
Microsoft Windows, you can get the fonts from the CD too.

===================================
solution 1:
delete the Fonts folder in Wine,make sure that in there you have not any
important fonts, which other programs need.

cd ~/.wine/drive_c/windows
rm -rf Fonts

make a symbolics Link to folder "Fonts" in Windows or your other fonts folder.
ln -s /media/Your_Windows_Location/Fonts Fonts

done.
===================================
solution 2:
you can copy all files in Windows/Fonts to ~/.wine/drive_c/windows/Fonts.
it's same function like above but need ca 200 MB disk space in your home
folder.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
when the WTL menu has problem try to do this:

wine regedit

then go to reg key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\FontSubstitutes
change the follows key to a font in your language. i changed them to Songti, a
very common fonts in Chinese version.
“MS Shell Dlg”=”SimSun”
“MS Shell Dlg 2″=”SimSun”
