[Wine] cpy steam games to new wine.

Hello,

I installed wine 1.3.30 and winetricks on my gentoo.
The latest drivers for nvidia are installed.

It seems that I broke my wine installation by wrongly trying to install directx
which was needed for Rage to work.

Now I already downloaded rage which is about 20GB in size and would like to
avoid downloading it again.

It seems that all steam files are in ~/.local and not in ~/.wine so can I just
remove ~/.wine and do a wine-reboot and keep my installed steam? Are there any
other steps to reuse the already-downloaded files?

thanks in advance.

Incorrect. By default all Steam files under c:\Program Files\Steam\SteamApps.
That translates to ~/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/Steam/SteamApps. Unless of
course you using some 3rd party Wine wrapper.
