Grand Theft Auto Vice City Working
Got my hands on an ultra compressed version, no Radio, no Voice-over.
640x480, turn off Frame Limiter
Turn on Captioning
Frame rate not great, but not bad, will tweak Wine registry and update.

Cool! Where did you get it from?

Legally, I have to answer that I purchased it from the corner software store........

Yeah, I know.

Ironically I actually have GTA Vice City and GTA 3 / GTA San Andreas, but all for the PS2. Will need to start looking for a windows version...

I've tried to get this running on my AA1 but I have no idea what I am doing wrong.

I burned an ISO of GTA:VC and installed it via wine, and that worked ok - it is now installed into a folder in wine/drive_c/Program Files/Rockstar Games/Grand Theft Auto Vice City

But clicking gta-vc.exe and selecting either execute or 'run with wine' and nothing happens at all. No error messages - and wine does not show up as running in System Monitor either.

I'm pretty much a linux n00b, I've used maemo on my internet tablet but this version on the AA1 is proving difficult to grasp.

Any suggestions - am I doing something stupid or do I need to reinstall wine from scratch?
