Ok this is silly, but I just can't seem to get to the bottom of it. I am using Gnome 2.4 (still) and playing Warcraft III on Winex-transgaming.

If I start Warcraft from the command line, it runs great.

If I start it from a launcher (configured with the same command) it will not start! I have configured the launcher to "run in terminal" and generally played around with the settings, but without success. Warcraft begins to start, but just as it is about to go fullscreen it shuts down.

But not if it's started from the command line! What gives?

Code:

wine %winepath%/war3.exe -- -opengl


Are you using a command something like the above?

Like this:

Code:

winex3 "~/.transgaming/c_drive/Program Files/Warcraft III/Warcraft III.exe"


Works fine on the command line, but not from the launcher.

Code:

winex3 "/home/who/.transgaming/c_drive/Program Files/Warcraft III/Warcraft III.exe"; echo "Done."


solved it.
