I've searched all over the internet on how to do this, but only found that people have been succesful in running the Steam version of Civilization IV on Wine, not the Direct2Drive. So I did everything on this page: http://itezer.com/blog/ubuntu-linux/140-Civilization-IV-on-Linux-with-Wine-1-1-16.html Additionally, the Wine website ( http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=10262 ) says to do this for the Direct2Drive version to work:> > to get the d2d version to work you need to install > the game on a windows machine first then copy these folders > > c:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Trymedia > c:\Documents and Settings\All Users\drm > > to your wine folder at > > ~/.wine/drive_c/windows/profiles/All Users/Application Data > ~/.wine/drive_c/windows/profiles/All Users/ > > respectivelySo I installed the game on Windows XP and was able to find the Trymedia folder, but not the drm folder. Has anyone successfully run the Direct2Drive version of Civilization IV on Wine?
I tried running the game through command line and got these errors:> > err:module:import_dll Library MSVCP71.dll (which is needed by L"C:\\Program Files\\Firaxis Games\\Sid Meier's Civilization 4\\BOOST_PYTHON-VC71-MT-1_32.DLL") not found > err:module:import_dll Library BOOST_PYTHON-VC71-MT-1_32.DLL (which is needed by L"C:\\Program Files\\Firaxis Games\\Sid Meier's Civilization 4\\Civilization4.exe") not found > err:module:import_dll Library MSVCP71.dll (which is needed by L"C:\\Program Files\\Firaxis Games\\Sid Meier's Civilization 4\\HAPDBG.DLL") not found > err:module:import_dll Library HAPDBG.DLL (which is needed by L"C:\\Program Files\\Firaxis Games\\Sid Meier's Civilization 4\\Civilization4.exe") not found > err:module:import_dll Library MSVCP71.DLL (which is needed by L"C:\\Program Files\\Firaxis Games\\Sid Meier's Civilization 4\\Civilization4.exe") not found > err:module:LdrInitializeThunk Main exe initialization for L"C:\\Program Files\\Firaxis Games\\Sid Meier's Civilization 4\\Civilization4.exe" failed, status c0000135Looks like I'm missing dll's. Strange, I thought I'd only need msxml3.dll, msxml3r.dll, and d3dx9_36.dll. Help would be greatly appreciated!
