What works
Well the game menu works fine and there's no issue on starting a game (at least I tried the Solo quest), it renders fine the in-game graphics and runs at full framerate.
What does not
Direct "wine /path/to/Nox.exe".
X server goes bananas with a normal "wine Nox.exe"
The game window goes bonkers if you don't set a Virtual Desktop with winecfg for the exe file.
Workarounds
For the "direct wine command" just type in a terminal:
"cd path/to/nox/folder
WINEPREFIX=/wineprefixfolder/ wine Nox.exe"
That will start the game without issues.
For the x server going bonkers:
Just go to a console terminal.
type winecfg for the prefix you are using
Add application...
Select the "Nox.exe" in the program files folder.
Set it for windows XP.
Go to the "Graphics" tab, select "emulate a virtual desktop" and set it bigger than 640x480.
That's it.
For the Solo game just add this folders to the "maps" folder inside the game folder:

Additional Comments
You might need a DirectX with winetricks as I have it installed.
Using Nvidia GT620, i5-4590 6GB or RAM.

Running a very weird OS.
