This is no longer useful as is.
Current Wine app db is http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=20873
Respectfully request that someone rework to functional.
Best Regards, dede

I'm in the process of rewriting this script as it is indeed very old. Is there any preference between the Streaming Client or the Full Install? The Streaming Client only downloads what is immediately needed, which creates longer zoning times but a faster install. The Full Install downloads everything before allowing you to play the game, which speeds up loading times in game.

The official link on their homepage is the Streaming Client but the Full Install is still offered and supported at the URL on the AppDB page.

I would say that a Full Install is the best way. Streaming could open up a whole can of worms.
