[Wine] Problem with The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings + Ubisoft
Here's my main reply: http://pastebin.com/3zq1r9pF . Basically I say that two tools, WhatChanged and RegShot, might not only help this situation out, but help get other programs to work in WINE. Also, I have links to other places in there and explain a little about SecuROM and why you need the disc (or emulate a disc) to START the game, but you can take it out later. Myth 11 and WINE's page about copy protection are applicable here. WINE supports SecuROM 4.xx but not 5.xx. Cheers, Jake -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

[Wine] Re: Problem with The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings + Ubisoft
Hi Jake, Thanks for your how to on WhatChanged and Regshot. I've used WhatChanged and although it doesn't show every file change (in fact it only shows new files not those that were modified) I was able to finally start Launcher.exe (of The Witcher 2) on Wine. I have now a registered game but I've still didn't managed to get it working. SecuROM in this case is used only for activation so I don't need to bother with disc. - Mateusz
