how to install flight simulator 98 using wine

sirius57 · 05-31-2006, 09:04 PM

I would like information on how to use the windows emulator WINE to install flight simulator 98. My box has suse 10.0 32 bit and suse 10.0 64 bit os. (Also fedora core 1 32 bit with no video acceleration.) I have installed wine using my source disk and would like to do the install with no hacking, ect. Would like to know where a windows program is installed on the hard disk and how it is run once installed.

It seems that people are having trouble playing the game with WINE:

Install the game by mounting the CD and running "wine <install executable>"

Games are usually installed to /home/user/.wine/drive_c, I think that is the default. When you want to run it, go to the game's subdirectory in that directory and run "wine <executable>"
