Additional Comments

The game was obtained from Gamersgate. After installing the expansions and patching the game, the version is 1.5.355. The game requires the MS VC++ 2005 runtime libraries (winetricks vcrun2005). Native d3dx9_36.dll is also needed but that was installed during the setup process. Apart from the fact that certain keys are not recognized, the game is running perfectly, no stability issues either. Even multiplayer works out-of-the-box. Nvidia GeForce 250 GTS / driver 260.19.29
