FIRST OF: I have absolutley no idea when it comes to terminology or working with Wine in general, you guys just seem to be my only hope. So heres my problem: I recently purchased the classic Grand Theft Auto Games (GTA 3 to San Andreas) at GamesTreeMac for my Macbook. Of course Rockstar didnt go through the hustle of rewriting their code, so GamesTree just ported it. Problem is: Since I run a German system, certain content (like rampages, blood, money for killing people) is locked from the game. But especially the rampages are important for 100% completion. So I remembered the old windows trick: Switch your system language to english. Worked like a charm! But since I am a lazy bum and dont want to switch around everytime I wanna play some GTA I googled for ways of switching the language for certain apps. I found one and it involves going to ?/Library/Preferences and looking for the .plist file for your app. So far so good but heres the catch: The GTA games don't have .plist files. Only folders containing several files, including a file called "config" which looks like this: Code: WINE REGISTRY Version 2 ;; All keys relative to \\Machine\\Software\\Wine\\Wine\\Config ;; ;; MS-DOS drives configuration ;; ;; Each section has the following format: ;; [Drive X] ;; "Path"="xxx" (Unix path for drive root) ;; "Type"="xxx" (supported types are 'floppy', 'hd', 'cdrom' and 'network') ;; "Label"="xxx" (drive label, at most 11 characters) ;; "Serial"="xxx" (serial number, 8 characters hexadecimal number) ;; "Filesystem"="xxx" (supported types are 'msdos'/'dos'/'fat', 'win95'/'vfat', 'unix') ;; This is the FS Wine is supposed to emulate on a certain ;; directory structure. ;; Recommended: ;; - "win95" for ext2fs, VFAT and FAT32 ;; - "msdos" for FAT16 (ugly, upgrading to VFAT driver strongly recommended) ;; DON'T use "unix" unless you intend to port programs using Winelib ! ;; "Device"="/dev/xx" (only if you want to allow raw device access) ;; ... And so on. As I said earlier, I have no idea what this controls and what not but from my basic knowledge I see that it gives certain system specs and seems to mount the drives. So my question now is: Is there a way to switch the language the Wine system emulates the game in, to force it into a different one then the current main OS'? Can I add a line in the config for that, if so where should I do that? If you need it I could also provide the whole config or a listed folder structure. I hope you can help me :)
