Additional Comments

Wine 1.1.16 solves the CD audio problem I had with previous versions of Wine. (Release notes: "Support for digital CD audio playback.") CD music now works out of the box, which bumps my rating from Silver to Platinum.

HowTo / Notes

HOWTO

If the game only shows a black screen, try starting it without the CD first (this should only have to be done once).
