What works
install
Training session actually appears to work. Motion is smooth (once all the debug output is disabled) and graphically everything looks good.
What does not
Game does not run at all without NoCD replacement version of t3.exe. Text in menus is mostly completely illegible, which makes saving the game an interesting exercise (haven't figured it out yet).
The most annoying problem is the cursor. Even in full screen mode it gets stuck at the edge of the screen -- fortunately hitting Esc to bring up the menu screen allows the cursor to be recentred and the game can be resumed.
Soemtimes Keys get stuck in on direction and you don't stopp to walk.
Workarounds
What was not tested
Game is unplayable because of mouse bug and walking bug and you cant read your mission because of text rendering.
Hardware tested

"If your sound card is not properly detected, try switching the
sound to OSS in winecfg. I can make no guarantees, but I was able to
play through the entire training mission. I experienced two major
problems: text was not rendered properly and the "mouse stop" was not
always done correctly." - Erich Hoover
