I have a dual boot consisting of Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit and ubuntu
15.04. 

I spent some time researching how to get the game working in linux.
Upgrading wine got the game to load, but in the linux version there are no
addons, and not even an addon entry in the top-level menu.

During my research, I read that you can actually copy your Windows game
folders into their proper place in the wine/drive_c folder, which I did,
and my addons are there. Why doesn't the game see them?

Tom
