[Wine] Re: wine command line arguments

[jserink]

Hi All;

Ok, updated to:
 jserink at jserinki7 ~/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/Microsoft Games/Age of Empires III $ wine --version
wine-1.4-rc1

Now, this worked, but:
http://wiki.winehq.org/FAQ#head-dba86ae589dca54a116a3fc21f6237af45e8119c

I first tried this:
wincfg and turn off virtual desktop,
wine explorer /desktop="Age of Empires III",1280x1024 age3.exe

This ran a virtual desktop at 800x600 that was blue inside, no app running and the name in the boarder was "Age".

Changed the command line to:
wine explorer /desktop=Age_of_Empires_III,1280x1024 age3.exe

And it all works perfect.

Here is my startup batch file for AoE III:
#!/bin/bash
cd "/home/jserink/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/Microsoft Games/Age of Empires III/"
#wine age3.exe
wine explorer /desktop=Age_of_Empires_III,1280x1024 age3.exe

Here is my startup batch file for AoE II:
#!/bin/bash
cd "/home/jserink/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/Microsoft Games/Age of Empires II/"
#wine empires2.exe
wine explorer /desktop=Age_of_Empires_II,1280x1024 empires2.exe

Here is my startup batch file for AoE II Conquerers:
#!/bin/bash
cd "/home/jserink/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/Microsoft Games/Age of Empires II/"
#wine age2_x1/age2_x1.exe
wine explorer /desktop=Age_of_Empires_II_Conquerers,1280x1024 age2_x1/age2_x1.exe


Thanx for pointing me to the FAQ.

Cheers,
John
