Your log shows that you are using Wine 1.7.55

I suggest downloading a newer version from the Wine Manager.  Maybe 2.12-staging might have more success.  Remember to change versions in Configure under the General tab

How did you get it to work?

No problem... I've been tinkering with PlayOnLinux and games for about 4 years now.  My goal has been to help gamers by eliminating all the redundant trial-n-error so they can just get their game installed.

I respect you for that. However I can't exactly remember HOW it was done, just that somewhere along the line, I was able to make the installer work, and that's how I was able to install the game.

No problem.  That has happened to me as well.  Re-install, try version of Wine, re-install, Try a setting, Re-install, try another version of Wine and.... BAM!  All of a sudden it starts working and I can't remember what I did.
