How to play Mabinogi on linux (mint) using wine

[tme.sol.sis]

Hello i've search for a while and can't get a solution. I've tried a post from this site by the name of - [Guide] Playing Mabinogi on Linux. After installing directx, alsa, some codecs, flash, gecko, winetricks, devenum.dll, quartz.dll changed a few settings in winecfg and reinstalled a few times i still get an error message "The program Client.exe has encountered a serious problem and needs to close..."
Help please? any would be appreciated..

Give up on Wine for now, use VMware Player and install an XP guest. I guess it used to work in Wine, but not last time i tried. Check out TinyXP.

I have windows 7 in virtual box but it doesn't work, i guess i can try it in VMware but does it have to be windows xp?
Thanks for the suggestion hope it works, following up the link now..

Sorry..I didn't mean Oracle...the 3d support wasnt quite there in virtualbox last time i checked. VMware is much better 3d atm. No it doesnt have to be XP, I only suggest TinyXP because it makes small virtual HD file.
