Sims 2 DVD on 1.1.15-git
by Daniel Rammelt on Friday February 27th 2009, 13:53
Installs fine from DVD. After changing to Forced desktop and installing directx9, all directx dlls were changed to Native (Winetricks sets several dlls to builtin). This allowed the game to load further than usual. Otherwise I got the same crashes as everyone else.
Now crashes with... wine: Call from 0x11e42ad to unimplemented function GDI32.dll.GdiEntry1, aborting
I dont see anyway to override GDI32.dll so I guess its just a bug in wine?
