	That's OK if you can compile successfully.

	If I understand everything correctly, you can run the game (at least Demo), 
it doesn't ask CD2, shows an animation and then crash. Full version doesn't 
crash but ask for CD2. Is this correct?

	As far as I understand with 0.9.49 you even cannot see the introductory 
animation it just crashes immediately? If so you can try to find the patch 
that broke the game' start up - *maybe* with new one WINE version it will 
work if you revert bad commit: it is possible that it doesn't work with 0.9 
because of additional non-obvious incompatibilities with new libraries.
	But even if this isn't the case finding bad commit that prevent start up of 
the game will be helpful anyway because will help to resolve at least a part 
of the bug that prevent Outcase from running.
	If my understanding of your words wasn't correct then please describe 
behavior of the game in each case with more details.
	Thank you for using WINE.
