Here is a script for Anno 1602 (the regular version) and a script to patch Anno 1602. The patch is for the dutch version of the game. However, the script was created such that it can be easily extended to other versions.

1) Why do you copy game from CD instead of installing it?
2) In patch script you should also use
POL_SetupWindow_install_wine "$WORKINGWINEVERSION"
because it's not always true that user has Wine $WORKINGWINEVERSION
3) In patch script
What if servers are down or user has it's own patch on hdd? You should add possibility to install user's patch. You can see how it's done [url=http://www.playonmac.com/repository/?script=624]here[/ur]
4) What's the reason for choosing Wine 1.1.37?
5) Why echo "http://annomuseum.de/webseiten/SF/download.sunflowers.de/$PATCHFILE" ?
6) Use $REPERTOIRE instead of $HOME/.PlayOnLinux

1) Why do you copy game from CD instead of installing it?

Unfortunately the installer will not work. Copying it seems to be the commonly accepted solution:
http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=11464&iTestingId=49924

2) In patch script you should also use
POL_SetupWindow_install_wine "$WORKINGWINEVERSION"
because it's not always true that user has Wine $WORKINGWINEVERSION

Oops, I will add this.

3) In patch script
What if servers are down or user has it's own patch on hdd? You should add possibility to install user's patch. You can see how it's done [url=http://www.playonmac.com/repository/?script=624]here[/ur]

I will do that.

4) What's the reason for choosing Wine 1.1.37?

One user (although on the mac) marked it as platinum:
http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=11464&iTestingId=49924

So if I have to try one initial version, I will select the one with the highest rating on WineHQ. Do I have to use other criteria to select a wine version?

5) Why echo "http://annomuseum.de/webseiten/SF/download.sunflowers.de/$PATCHFILE" ?

Oops :-°

6) Use $REPERTOIRE instead of $HOME/.PlayOnLinux

I will change this.

Later I will post a new patch.

Use the latest Wine version, check if the game installs and runs, if not then lower the version number. It's very easy and fast to do in POL.

Later I will post a new patch.

Please edit your first post rather than posting new script.

I have done this and changed the other things you asked me to change.

Okay, I have edited my first post.

If you copy the game instead of installing it you can embrace copying process by following commands POL_SetupWindow_wait_next_signal
and
POL_SetupWindow_detect_exit
Currently you use POL_SetupWindow_message and during copying process some users may have feeling that program stalled.


Following
PATCHFILE=$APP_ANSWER
won't work if APP_ANSWER is /home/user/Desktop/my patch/annopatch.exe

Sorry for the late reply. I have updated the script in the first post and will send it in for validation real soon.
If you accept it, you can consider to use the icon which was used for Anno 1602 KE.

In a few weeks I will create a script for Anno 1602 GE, which cannot be installed using this script,
while this game cannot be installed in the way Anno 1602 GE has to be installed...
