Whew! Hopefully I am getting closer to playing (or at least loading ;) Assassin's Creed 2 on Linux! I am using Dormine's server emulator, Wine 1.1.42 and Ubuntu Lucid Lynx. I set wine to use native winhttp, and I got HttpProxyConfig to connect to the fake server. It even checked and said I had the latest version! Then I get an ugly window saying the Ubisoft Game Launcher has encountered a serious problem and needs to close. Terminal output for wine as follows:
inop@den1:~/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/Ubisoft/Assassin's Creed II$ fixme:winsock:WSAEnumNameSpaceProvidersW (0x3282c0 0x3292e0) Stub!

This is the first time Wine has failed me (or is it the other way 'round?). Do I post a bug report? Anyone?
