	For .net support in WINE you can run "winetricks mono12" (you can get 
winetricks at http://kegel.com/wine/winetricks ). Anyway, testing the latest 
version of the game isn't very important, only important thing is to test 
same version of the game on Windows and WINE.

	It would be great. Don't forget to provide information about hardware 
configuration used for testing, version of WINE and video drivers along with 
FPS on Linux and Windows.
