Default Space Empires with Wine

Out of curiousity, has anyone ever tried running either Space Empires III or IV on Linux using the Wine windows enviroment layer? Of course, I'll see for myself once I get my se4 CD back in a couple days, but it would be nice to know ahead of time.

Oh, a serious thread. And I thought it was a reincarnation of this thread right here.

Hah! Fooled ya!

Anyways, it appears that SEIV -does- work on Linux, for which I'm grateful.

The only two problems I've run into so far is some text running over their alotted space (which is easy enough to ignore), and a problem with the design creation window not popping up when I hit "create" (which is badbadbad). If anyone has any suggestions in fixing this, shoot away.

I prefer my Space Empires with a Martini, stirred, not shaken.
