I could not make this game run. Read KNOWN ISSUES.
Perhaps retry with a NoCD or a Wine version > 4.15.

#
# TESTED (with success): 2 CD-ROMs versions, august 2005 (folders date on the CD-ROM #1). In the readme.htm (once installed) I see 'version 1.0'.
#
# Middlewares used by this software : DirectX 9, Java, Macromedia Flash, Bink.
#
# CHANGELOG
# [Dadu042] (2019-09-10)
# First script. Install is OK but the game fail to load. To try: a NoCD (I could not find one).
#
#
# KNOWN ISSUES:
# - Wine amd64 4.0.2: crash when launched ('0009:err:seh:setup_exception_record stack overflow 1248 bytes in thread 0009 eip 7bc47d16 esp 00230e50 stack 0x230000-0x231000-0x330000'). Note: installer did not ask me CD #2 (it only ask it when the game starts).
# - Wine amd64 4.15: crash when launched ('Unhandled page fault on read access to 0x00000100 at address 0x7bc5d605 (thread 0009), starting debugger...').
#
# Ideas to improve this script: select archive, then decide if extension is RAR or ZIP or 7Z...
