NOTE: Guild Wars usually doesn't require any special settings to get working. The advice listed below is only for those who require help installing, running, or troubleshooting Guild Wars.
Installation:
Simply use the installer found at guildwars.com. Unzip the installer and run it using Wine:
wine GwSetup.exe
Running:
WINEDEBUG=-all wine "C:\Program Files\Guild Wars\Gw.exe"
WINEDEBUG=-all will stop the flood of fixme messages generated from normal use. If you require debugging, omit this option.
Troubleshooting:
If you are having graphics issues, use regedit to try some registry keys:
Appending these flags to the run command may help you:
