I'm using wine 1.5.11 on Archlinux, and I try to launch this old game :

http://www.cnetfrance.fr/telecharger/waterboy-11006056s.htm?download=1

The problem is that I always get a

"Run-time error '13' : Type mismatch"

when I try to launch it.

I've tried to switch oleaut.dll and ole32.dll to "native", and switch to "Windows 98" mode using winecfg, and then I had this error :

err:module:import_dll Library ole32.dll (which is needed by L"Z:\\games\\WaterBoy\\MSVBVM50.DLL") not found
err:module:import_dll Library OLEAUT32.dll (which is needed by L"Z:\\games\\WaterBoy\\MSVBVM50.DLL") not found
err:module:import_dll Library MSVBVM50.DLL (which is needed by L"Z:\\games\\WaterBoy\\WaterBoy.exe") not found
err:module:LdrInitializeThunk Main exe initialization for L"Z:\\games\\WaterBoy\\WaterBoy.exe" failed, status c0000135

I've installed vb5runtime using winetricks, but it didn't help.

Am I doing something wrong ?
