Download the script

NOTE: This game doesn't need cracks!
You may play it with the cd in the drive when install the game as normal or make full install and play it without disc!
The script is for Windows2000 English Version CD!

Works pretty fine, still I'm not sure how to skip the movies from the begining of the game and I think that many versions of wine have the same problem. :)

1) Don't do that. It's up to user.
# Marking the shortcut as trusted
if [ -f "$HOME/Desktop/${TITLENAME}.desktop" ]then chmod a+rx "$HOME/Desktop/${TITLENAME}.desktop"
fi

2) Why "Program Files" here?
REGPATH1='C:\\\\Program Files\\\\Heart Of Darkness'
REGPATH2='C:\\\\Program Files\\\\Heart Of Darkness\\\\paf'

3) That's not required.
# Program Files Variable
PROGRAMFILES="Program Files"

In general the script looks good.

1. Sorry about the trusted shortcut, didn't know that, because wasn't mention in the tutorials.
2. Thats because of the registry, as i mention it can be '.' and '.\\\\paf' the game still will work without cd if you copy the paf (movie file) to the paf directory in the gamedir.
3. I still need to learn about all the changes around the scripts.

I already fix the issues.
Cheers!
