Could you upgrade the default wine version used? It should give fps improvements.

Today I was able to successfully install the gog version of this game.
But it is not all smooth yarn immediately.
First, the version of wine used is old and has a problem that prevents installation on ivy bridge processors.
So while installing I had to change the version of wine (I ask you to at least correct this problem.)
I chose the retail version (because the gog version was not there) and I did start the installation.
The installation at the end crashes and an error from which it is impossible to get out (if you can fix this problem, which I guess is due to the fact that your installer is not designed for the gog version then you should have solved all) . Despite this, the game seems to have installed anyway, starts and runs (for safety I have replaced the folder with the game folder with the installation carried out on windows).
To change the language just start the program that provides gog that is located in the installation folder, you have to start with playonmac in settings-> run an exe in this virtual drive (playonmac is the only one that allows the change of language because the version cider not doing the installation does not create the necessary files in the registry).

My feedback is positive, however, because the game works. But there is an error that will be given to all those with ivy bridge CPU. And another error that will be given to all those with the gog version (do not know the others). For this reason, this installer can not be considered stable.
