No, it is not fixed.

K. First test run with wine-20050628 with WoW-1.5.1
The "I cannnot click on any NPC" is still there.
Audio is not working (artsdrv) also not with sndrec32.exe ("no sound 
device"). artsd is running and no conn from wine.
Mh, something rotten with wineconfig/registry?! I can see wine is 
loading wineoss.drv instead. Regedit shows me correctly 
WineMM/Drivers=winearts.drv

Tried alsa, that is working.

New bug in wine-20050628: if WoW looses focus, it minimizes and 
maximizes automatically and steals focus again (I'm using WMaker) more 
worse graphics becomes shifted about +1px+1px every time. Makes game 
unplayable after this. Is the option "UseTakeFocus" = "n" no more working?!

So, now I'm going to patch the game.

K. patched fine. creates a new folder WoWTest with empty wtf/ 
config-Folder so have to adjust settings after a quick run.

Game is up. Still has the "cannot click on NPC"

The cheap wrapper trick is still making it working.


further testing needs now lots more time ;)
