Hi people!
First of all, my first post, hope it will be nice to meet you!
So I installed Anno 1701 from CD via the PoL installation script. So far so good. I needed to run it a couple of times until it worked but hell it is worth it.
I had startup problems: Resolution between desktop and game was not changing right and the mouse cursor did not get caught by the application. After I installed dxfullsetup it worked. I removed the installed DLLs again and it still works
Don't ask me why...
Now I have two problems. First: the keyboard won't work. I tried to edit the Engine.ini entry
adding a "1" in between. No changes for the game. Strange thing: anytime I try to edit the file wine sets up a virtual drive which I deleted days ago 
. This one has nothing to do with the Anno1701 drive?! Does this indicate my PoL is corrupted or something?
Second problem is that my system crashes when a sequence is supposed to be played (went broke)...
I am new to Arch based distros but I changed to tty1, killed all wineserver process and tried to startx, command not found? Might it be xserver start? But that's just on the side I might be able to find that out myself
Have a nice one!
