I had a few issues getting wine working with this version. I tried using ACT v2, but the Neverwinter plugin wouldn't work with it because it is using features of the newer .NET 4 runtime.

create a directory for your ACT wine installation:
Code:
```
mkdir /opt/act
```
setup environment variables correctly for winecfg.
do not create the "app" directory here, wine will create it. Also, I use 32-bit arch because winetricks won't install .NET 4 in a 64-bit environment.
Code:
```
export WINEPREFIX=/opt/act/app
export WINEARCH=win32
```
Run winecfg: wine will create the "app" directory
Code:
```
winecfg
```
grab the latest winetricks script from http://wiki.winehq.org/winetricks.
gdiplus_winxp is for this error: System.ArgumentException: Parameter is not valid. System.Drawing.Image.get_FrameDimensionsList()
Code:
```
winetricks dotnet40
winetricks gdiplus_winxp
```

download the latest setup file for ACT v3 and run with:

Code:

env WINEPREFIX=/opt/act/app WINEARCH=win32 wine ACTv3-Setup.exe

now obtain the latest Neverwinter plugin for ACT. You will need GIT for these steps.
Code:
```
cd /tmp
git clone https://github.com/nilsbrummond/Neverwinter-ACT-Plugin
cp /tmp/Neverwinter-ACT-Plugin/Neverwinter.cs /opt/act/app/drive_c/Program\ Files
```
Otherwise go directly to the github link posted above, click on Neverwinter.cs, and copy/paste the file into a text editor.

run ACT with:

Code:

env WINEPREFIX=/opt/act/app WINEARCH=win32 WINEDEBUG=-all wine /opt/act/app/drive_c/Program\ Files/ACT/Advanced\ Combat\ Tracker.exe

under plugins tab, select Neverwinter.cs in the program directory to install the plugin
In Neverwinter, run "/combatlog 1" to turn on combat logging, and "/combatlog 0" when done testing.
log file for Neverwinter current for a 64-bit wine installation is under:
Program Files (x86)/Perfect World Entertainment/Neverwinter_en/Neverwinter/Live/logs/GameClient/Combatlog.Log
