Additional Comments

First off im using wine 1.2.2 stable which isnt a choice for some reason. Secondly a huge hassle is that the new install is a msi file. I dont have any clue how to convert this to a exe on linux. My friend simply just sent me his folder for the per installed game. You will need to install 4 dll files into your system32 file under your wine partition. If you're under ubuntu this mean you can just use your apps menu then browser C program. Copy these 4 dll files into your system 32 folder mfc42.dll mfc90.dl msvcp90.dll msvcp60.dll Finnally make sure in your wineconfigure that you have all music types supported. Iro has music turned off by default so you're gonna wanna go turn your sound effects and music on from your menu. Enjoy!

• Game starts with fatal error and closes.

You need vcrun2008 for gameplay work. If you execute this without vcrun2008, your instalation can be corrupt (the cause is unknow).
(This does not apply to openpatcher).

• Patcher not shows information of update or receives error
  

Install wine gecko package (the package name varies according with your distribution). you can optionally install ie6 with winetricks instead of wine gecko package. Both work well.

• The game is slow
  

Download this file and add to wine registry:

$ regedit boost.reg
(The performance gain is high.)

• Tweaks in game for performance:

• Simplify aura with /aura command
• Simplify effects with /mineffect command, or use /effect for disable all effects.
• Disable fog with /fog command
