KQ8 : Mask of Eternity won't run with Wine20031212.

Hello,

I've been trying to play KQ8 on my RH9, without success so far.

The game installed without a problem. It hangs in the very early stages when it is run:
- I see the splash screen
- The splash goes away
- Many popups saying "Cannot open file" appear
- Game freezes. I'd expect the game menu to appear.


In my console, I have this message repeating 30 times approx:
fixme:xrandr:X11DRV_XRandR_SetCurrentMode Need to update SYSMETRICS after resizing display (now 640x480)


Then this message printing in an infinite loop:
fixme:mci:MCIWndProc support for MCIWNDM_ message WM_USER+106 not implemented


I played with --debugmsg and eventually obtained an interesting message printing in a loop:
trace:mci:MCI_Open (00030200, 0x408c6bf0)
trace:mci:MCI_Open lpstrElementName='w32opn_1.dll'
trace:mci:MCI_GetDevTypeFromFileName No ...\MCI Extensions entry for '.dll' found.
fixme:xrandr:X11DRV_XRandR_SetCurrentMode Need to update SYSMETRICS after resizing display (now 640x480)
trace:mci:MCIWndCreateA 0x10023 0x400000 2 w32opn_1.dll


--debugmsg +mciwave,+mcivideo,+msacm,+shell,+msvideo,+mmsys,+mci,+mciavi,+mciwave,+mcimidi,+mcicda,+mcianim"


This w32opn_1.dll is installed by the game in c:\sierra\mask, along with a few other DLLS with similar names.


I tried specifying this DLL in the dlloverrides section (with the exact path c:\\sierra\\mask), but it didn't change a thing.

I also tried loading native WinMe DLLs. That didn't help either.

"mciavi.drv" = "native"
"mcicda.drv" = "native"
"mciseq.drv" = "native"
"mciwave.drv" = "native"

I also tried running Wine in win95, win98 and winme. I didn't try beyond. This game didn't work on a real win2k system.

I can't help thinking there is a workaround.

All thoughts are welcome!
