Thanks for the great info on the streaming client... I've tried exactly like you suggested. I ended up installing Firefox 3.5 so that the plugin would work, then let it download the cached files. As soon as I press "Play", it attempts to launch Everquest2.exe and that crashes now, with Wine reporting: Code: fixme:imm:ImmReleaseContext (0x30080, 0x16c7d0): stub err:seh:raise_exception Unhandled exception code c0000005 flags 0 addr 0xb77dadb4 So back to the drawing board with Everquest2.exe this time, ugh. I've also upgraded to Wine 1.4rc2, started with a fresh .wine directory and re-did the steps you mentioned, since you reported it working on 1.4rc1, but that did not seem to help. Thanks again.
