Going through email that I should have read sooner...

Okay, what probably is happening here is that the prefix was created without
wine-staging and then run with it.  The aforementioned patch applies the
inheritable security attributes of the parent folder to new children, which is
the way SDs are supposed to work.

The security descriptors work best if you don't switch back and forth between
regular wine and wine-staging, since wine's default security descriptors can be
problematic if copied, but this generally only affects applications that are
incredibly picky.  It's also possible that the security descriptor for the
Cache folder is wrong, which would make it only work if  wine-staging _doesn't_
create Cache because later when wine-staging copies its security descriptors
then it restricts the children incorrectly.

So, if someone is willing to investigate then I would suggest:
1) create a fresh prefix with wine-staging and try the game with wine-staging
2) create a fresh prefix with regular wine and then try the game with
wine-staging
3) create a fresh prefix with wine-staging and try the game with regular wine

Depending on which of these scenarios work then that would narrow down whether
the issue is in the security descriptor for Cache or sharing a prefix between
regular wine and wine-staging.
