Hello:

Every time I try to install the game, the installer wizards asks me for "disk0 data3.cab", a file that doesn't exist in the Installation disk nor in the play disk. I tried deleting the TEMP folders inside the virtual machine created by PlayOnLinux, because this was a common fix in the past, but to no success. Does anyone know why this is happening? I have the original product of course and it have worked on Windows XP in the past.

Thank you in advance.

Will not install.  If I try to install from the list of programs, I get a sad face and this message: "Error in POL_Shortcut  Binary not found: Program Files/Rockstar Games/GTAIII/gta3.exe
Have you installed the program to the default location?"

The optical drive doesn't seem to be accessed at all, and POL should presumably be trying to install Setup.exe from the CD.  How it's going to find gta3.exe if it hasn't installed it, I don't know.

If I try to install it as a non-listed program, I get slightly further.   I tell POL to install from setup.exe on the disc, get to choose my language, get a GTA splash-screen, then an InstallShield Wizard dialog, agree to the license, but then get an error box marked 'Severe', and told "Product not supported on this OS."

Thanks for the report. This script is outdated (# Date: (2009-10-31 00-25), Wine version used: 1.1.32 ) and not standardized with current POL version (4.3.4).
I will rewrite it before 1 week (your report will be welcome).
