fontconfig is broken in Natty. See bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fontconfig/+bug/783622 for workarounds.

Can't create new game
by Luke Swanson on Saturday April 10th 2010, 22:34
I was able to install the game and start it, and it opens up the title screen, but when I select "new game" an alert pops up telling me that WineVDM.exe has experienced a problem and needs to close, and I am stuck without my game. Is there a fix for this?

P.S. I am running mac OSX

Never mind, I have 2.6j, not 2.6i, and wine 1.1.42 fixed the problem. Thank you Wine programmers!
