Known not to work

The game uses GameGuard as part of an anti-hacking/cheating system. GameGuard uses libraries from Oreans to achieve this. ...and Oreans seemily has no interest in working with the WINE community (including CodeWeavers) to address the compatibility issue.

Until WINE can do an end-run around Gameguard, this app will not run.

there are many games that use game
guard and other apps like it. all of those apps would run at a bronze or silver level if that one app could work. I think the problem is that it sees wine as a hacking program and thuse shuts down the program.

IMHO, not hacking, but multi-boxing.

Multi-boxing is one person using multiple computers, each with its on game account, for the purpose of having more than one character online at once. Using WINE would allow virtual multi-boxing, and make it easier (and much cheaper!) for people to do this.

One person at one computer running two accounts - simple power leveling. One person at one computer running four accounts - four times the gold farming!

Yes, I hate it. ...but I completely understand. :(
