That said, it is possible to get this game to work aside from the aformentioned issue.
Patch the game to version 2.0, fileplanet, among other places will have the patch available for download.
Use the bottle manager to access the control panel for the bottle, and check the 'emulate windows desktop' box under the graphics tab. This is not strictly necessary, but not doing so causes issues with returning your desktop to it's standard resolution.
Use the 'Run Windows Command' applet and make your entry in the box looks like:
/home/mike/.cxgames/TPWORLD/dosdevices/c:/Program Files/SimTheme Park/TP.EXE
click “create launcher”.
Use the command:
find .cxgames -name TP.lnk | grep desktopdata
to locate the newly created launcher. Open it in your favorite text editor (mine is found at ~/.cxgames/TPWORLD/desktopdata/cxmenu/Desktop.C^5E3A^5Fusers^5Fcrossover^5FDesktop/TP.lnk). Inside that file you will find a line that reads something like:
exec "/opt/cxgames/bin/wine" --bottle "TPWORLD" --check --wait-children --start "C:/users/crossover/Start Menu/Programs/SimTheme Park/TP.lnk" "$@".
Change the last bit "$@" to "bwcursor". The new command should look like:
exec "/opt/cxgames/bin/wine" --bottle "TPWORLD" --check --wait-children --start "C:/users/crossover/Start Menu/Programs/SimTheme Park/TP.lnk" "/bwcursor"
When you launch the game, DO NOT CLICK ANYTHING until the intro movies have played and you are at the menu screen. Doing so can (will?) cause the game to crash and or freeze.
