wine users - Feb 2010 - Warcraft III - Battle.net issues - Mistake with gnutls?

Huhu, I followed the HOWTO, but I guess I did something wrong

URL to appdb-article:
http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=3126

When I start the app with cmd at the last step of the first howto point I get
this error:

bas at Ubuntu:~$ ~/wine-war3/wine "C:\Programme\Warcraft III\Frozen
Throne.exe" /home/bas/wine-war3/wine: could not locate Wine source tree

I also had just extremly many disconnects at BNET, I didn't played, just
entered chat rooms and tried to host and so on (maybe my inability of hosting is
realted to this problem as well, i tired to forward the ports)

It seems that I didn't install gnutls propertly. Which version I shall
install in the synaptic administration?
gnutls-bin?
gnutls-doc?

I runned the application through the normal start menu, not with the (maybe not)
generated wine file, as through this I wasnt even able to start the game.

Can I still repair the game/and or wine, whatever is necessary?

try this
http://www.filefront.com/15588093/wine-1.1.21githacks1-0ubuntu19.04ppa1-i386.deb/

its the wine version you need for war3 to work, cheers.

Nah, I have solved the issue (re-compiled wine again but this time with gnutls).

The only thing which disturbes me atm is the soundbug, sometimes I have no sound
ingame (getting the warning message as well), but restarting the game is my
workaround. Though, a fix would be better.

well i havent had any problems with the that wine.

give it a try, and report back if it works flawlessly.

best of luck.

Can I configure wine the way that I can apply different wine versions for
different applications?

You could compile one version of Wine from source and then not "make
install" it - you would be able to run that specific version of Wine from
the directory it was built, then.

In fact, looking at post 1, you already seem to be doing this.
