  1. Nvm, after some more thought, was able to fix by replacing the symbolic link with a hard link. Works great now!
  2. Hi all, My project for the day has been getting Continuum 040 to work on CrunchBang, a Debian distro. So far I've done a lot of work and am almost done, but I can't think of a workaround for this error. What I've done so far: 1. Compiled a patched version of wine 1.1.23 from source code as per the instructions on winehq for continuum installation. http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=3703 1a) I also had to make sure that I had all of the 32-bit X development libraries, along with freetype development libraries. There are scripts available that will help you with this. 2. Installed the regular version of Continuum for windows using wine. 3. Encountered classic "Failed to load dynamic link library menures.dll" upon running Continuum in wine. I was able to work around this. In the hidden .wine directory, there are two important folders: ~/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/Continuum and ~/.wine/drive_c/windows/system. Wine appears to look for continuum in the system directory while installing it to program files, so i created a symbolic link from system to program files, then copied the .dll files from program files to system (cp *.dll). Now I can load the program. 4. Noticed that the program loads without any icons or fonts. What I get is the bare skin without any ship icons or letters whatsoever (aside from those that appear on the GUI buttons). However, if I click, for example, Profile, the menu screens in there load just fine. Through some guesswork I was able to try to join a zone using my correct username and password. I get to the screen with the flying stars (right before a zone is entered) and then the program crashes, complaining that it cannot load graphics file tallfont.bm2. I have no idea why this is happening and I can't begin to think of a workaround. Experts? Thank you.
