wine users - Mar 2012 - Re: Civilization IV (Direct2Drive)

I could install Civ4 D2D, but I also can't find a way to get past the pop-up
window of html/javascript code. I installed all the libraries that I thought
might help. I tried copying the Trymedia folder, though there didn't seem to
be any directory in my wineprefix that corresponded directly to Documents and
Settings/All Users. I tried making it, I tried the Public user directory that I
found, I tried making it in the user directory, copying the Trymedia as
instructed above in each case, but to no avail. Zangderak, or anyone else,
please let us know how did you do it?

Many thanks in advance for your help.

Sorry, I forgot to mention, I am running wine 1.4rc5 on the current Linux Mint
(64bit), version 12, all updates installed, on a correctly configured NVidia
video card with the 3d proprietary driver. I have PlayonLinux and Winetricks,
current versions.

strangely, the d2d entry in appdb mentioned in the first post has disappeared.

this civ4 problem seems similar to the one reported here:

See if the howto here helps:
