wine users - Oct 2010 - Natural Selection 2 alpha, Steam

Hi,
I have preordered natural selection quite a while ago and it seems like it is
getting to a playable state, so I wanted to know if anyone could help me (and
many others :)), to get natural selection 2 to work with wine.
I would gladly give you a console log, but i don't even know how i start
steam-games from console :/.
(when i try "wine Natural\ Selection\ 2.exe", it says that i need
steam to run to start NS2, but steam is running already :/. Also I installed
Steam using PlayOnLinux.)

So if someone could give me a helping hand here, i would really appreciate it
and when it is working i will donate 20$ to the wine project :))).

Get rid of PlayOnLinux, we don't support it.  Start with a clean 
wineprefix and then install the game from steam.  Run the game from the 
command line and capture a logging file for us to review on-line at a 
site like pastebin.com.  Post the URL in this thread where we can find 
it.  Instructions on how to run programs from the command line are at:

game work (but crapy ) with wine-1.33 , now you can't launch him cose
wine-1.33 can't run the new steam's gui , you can launch steam and the
game (with the current wine ) from the gui but you get black window .

PS Spark editor work with crossover game but not perfect (game don't work).
