wine users - Jun 2008 - Spore (trial) working?

Here is one of the links to the early trial (promo) Creator Creator:
http://files.filefront.com/SCCTrialSetupexe/;10630039;/fileinfo.html

It's official on the 17th, but available to test or use as a promo for now.

It installed and complained about DirectX after install.

When started, it didn't seem to get beyond the second screen. It shows a 
galaxy turning in the background and a window in the front ground that 
shows "upgrade," "trial," and "pre-order." Any
click on those just opens
the web browser.

Maybe a newer version of wine will get further.

I installed it and will take a look again in the future sometime.

Have fun!

I am having the same issue. I am currently running Wine 1.0-rc5. Can get to the
screen past the initial "preorder Spore" screen, with the rotating
galaxy. The colors appear washed out, but I can interact with the spiral (click
and drag to alter rotation).

I can run the same executable on my windows laptop without issue.

could you guys please create a appdb page for it?
