Of course im in the right dir, as you can see ive done everything people have said to do on here. still wont work, so please help. funny how i got this game through wine working, but not the linux version :/

Looks like you are missing libjpeg, at least game couldn't open it.

Also: I have prompted for removing linux support few times, but jitspoe wants to keep it. Linux never was good gaming platform, so you are trying it at your own risk..

Unfortunately, I think you'll need to explicitly get that version of libjpeg.  I should probably just hard link the jpeg lib into the executable like I do on the windows version.  Linux is terrible when it comes to libraries and backward compatibility.  You might be able to find it using Synaptic.

On the off chance you don't have libjpeg at all, you might be able to fix the issue using this command:

sudo apt-get install libjpeg

Nothing worked, i did the install for libjpeg62 and nothing. Still get the same error. I have no idea why :/

OK i lied, now its working, i need the 32bit version

The quick and dirty solution to this problem:

sudo apt-get install libjpeg62:i386


I'm still working on sound.
