verb request: msacm32 #231

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

Native msacm32.dll is required by a few games (mostly old games). Any chance of 
a winetricks verb for it?

I only see one game listed in

http://bugs.winehq.org/buglist.cgi?query_format=advanced&component=msacm32&produ
ct=Wine

Please update wine bugzilla to reflect the other games that
have trouble with wine's msacm32.

I would provide a verb if I could figure out where at microsoft.com
to download something that provides msacm32.dll that I can unpack.
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/945438 has one, but I can't unpack it.
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/811134 has one, but it's a manual hotfix
download.  I'll try that sometime.

That last url seems like it would work as a w_manual_download.
Can you verify the dll it contains solves your problem?

Sorry; wasn't paying attention to this bug.

Yeah, msacm32 is required for proper sound in some older games, including EOC. 
That first dll works fine.
