Additional Comments
In order to run Mods, there's an additional DLL override needed. All winetrick DLL's installed: vcrun2010 vcrun6 vcrun6sp6 mfc42 d3dx9_31 (Only required for Mods) Another Note for NVidia users: Default fedora 15 install uses the open source nouveau drivers, game would run but was a black screen with cursor. Tried the Direct3D registry tweaks for similar problems and it didn't fix anything. Dunno if I pronounce it right, but "No View" is exactly what you get with the nouveau drivers. Installing the non-free NVidia drivers fixed this problem.
