I had the Sims 3 working up until the town load section and was about to test
something for Jeffz when something (I honestly don't know what) caused some
breakage to do with the MS C++ libraries.
Now when I try and run the game I get:
Code:

L"C:\\Games\\Sims3\\Game\\Bin\\TS3.exe" failed, status c0000135
Installing the vcrun2005, vcrun2005sp1, vcrun6 packages (via
'winetricks') had no effect. Any ideas what causes this and how to fix
it?
"rm -rf ~/.wine" isn't an option as I have a lot installed and
always wiping Wine for issues that can occur frequently isn't really a
sensible option anyway.
