Hello Marcus,

I can' reproduce this, the launcher works fine here.

You didn't state your original Wine version used for installing/running the
game ('wine --version' in terminal).
You are most likely running an outdated Wine version.

Make sure you use recent Wine 1.7.x series, preferably Wine 1.7.20/21

I downloaded the launcher here:

http://client.cdn.gamigo.com/fo/en/FiestaOnline_EN.exe (1.6 GiB)

It seems a part of the launcher uses the MS .NET Framework.
Since Wine ships a native .NET Framework replacement, 'Mono' might work too (I
didn't test that).

I installed .NET Framework 2.0 in the WINEPREFIX (using 'winetricks -q
dotnet20).
It helped, the launcher now asked for Adobe flash 13 plugin/player/ActiveX
control and I let it download/install the prerequisite on its own.

Upon restart, the launcher presented me a black window.
You have to wait a bit until the embedded flash bloat/garbage initializes
(churns one CPU core all the time).
After the client updated itself to the latest version it presented me with a
'Launch Game' button.

The game client 'Fiesta.bin' starts successfully for me (login required).

$ sha1sum FiestaOnline_EN.exe 
23f66f53457057cc92b5dc3732a9d9146d63ace7  FiestaOnline_EN.exe

$ du -sh FiestaOnline_EN.exe 
1.6G    FiestaOnline_EN.exe

$ wine --version
wine-1.7.21-61-gf9f3b21

Regards
