Both the Steam and Gamersgate versions of the game have this bug. Only the base
game is affected, the expansion (Patrician 4: Rise of a Dynasty) which requires
the base game to be installed, doesn't have the problem.

After starting the game with Patrician4.exe, an error message is shown:
"D:\GMProjects\Patrician3\App\App.cpp(732): Error in 'App::Initialize'
.
.
Installation corrupt: 2:0xffffffff"

This error message comes up in this forum thread @Kalypso:

The answer was that the user had to update root certificates in Windows XP.
A +loaddll log reveals that crypt32.dll and wintrust.dll are indeed loaded when
I start the game.
Appdata.dll in the installed game directory contains a certification (the file
properties dialog under Windows shows it).
I wonder if a +crypt or +wintrust debug log would be of any help.

The game should start with a launcher asking you for registering the game
@Kalypso. I tried with native crypt32 and received a crash along with a
backtrace somewhere in Wine's wintrust component.
