It's close, but no cigar

This flight simulator is "protected" by detecting the 4channel +x buttons "joystick" it's sold with, it's like a RC transmitter.
The joystick part works great in Linux alone.
The realflight.exe file cannot test it's other functionality, and so it's denying to fly.
Solution: use EMU.EXE for realflight, - it's a emulator that allows flying with any and also the original controller by fooling the test.
I guesss Emu.exe is a loader, it needs to load and modify memory of realflight.exe.
The problem is that it don't see realflight.exe and can't launch it for some reason ..

I hope somebody can look at this, and maybe find a solution, Realflight would be very fun..

update: this command executes EMU.EXE properly, so it can locate the simulator's exe:
exec "/opt/cxgames/bin/wine" --bottle "Realflight45" --check --wait-children --workdir "C://Program Files/RealFlightG4/" --start "C://Program Files/RealFlightG4/Emu.exe" "$@"
