hmm, This is really strange I don't have any problem with Pharaoh finding the
CD. Ok, I'm going to ask a _very_ obvious question: The CD is mounted isn't it?
While we're talking about Pharaoh:
Something changed in wine-20006xx there are a bunch of animations (like the
little guy in the granery, the flags on function buildings, water in irigation
trenches, or the flames on burning buildings) don't work anymore (but they did
worked in 20005xx) :( These animations sit layered on top of other sprites,
any ideas on what changed to cause this? (Caesar 3 has the same problem)
Also in 20005xx there was a bug that after 10 or 15 minutes of play the game
would lock up and the same 1 second of sound would loop forever, so I think
there is a bug in the sound code) I just put 20005xx back on my system so I'll
give a full -debugmsg +dsound +relay in a day or two.
Finally there is a hot key in Pharaoh that doesn't seem to work, the 'r' key is
suppost to rotate statues, but it doesn't work. No warning or error messages
that I saw, I'll try and post a real report later.
