Ok, Hans Leidekker solved the DNSAPI.dll issue (http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=18986#c1) for me. Now with that resolved, eve will still not start. The splash screen comes up and then it dies back to a prompt. It gives the following information: Code: denali@mountain:~$ wine "C:\Program Files\CCP\EVE\eve.exe" err:ole:CoGetClassObject class {9a5ea990-3034-4d6f-9128-01f3c61022bc} not registered err:ole:CoGetClassObject no class object {9a5ea990-3034-4d6f-9128-01f3c61022bc} could be created for context 0x1 fixme:heap:HeapSetInformation 0x8d0000 0 0x33fc70 4 With the exception of the ole error, nothing that I can see that would cause this. Any suggestions?
