Hmm. Does C:\\Program Files\\3DO\\Heroes3\\DATAh3sprite.lod exist ?

Or maybe this should be DATA\\h3sprite.lod ??

Hmm.

Let me check this.
I smell some Wine problem...

BTW, have you tried running
http://home.germany.net/100-30936/download/winecheck
?
Probably doesn't help here, though...

ARGL:

THAT's it !!

GetFullPathNameA() is broken (clips trailing '\\').
Latest Wine release, BTW ? Or which one ?

Oh well, something needs to be fixed then, I guess... ;-)
