Fix menu/mouse issues in Rise of Nations game

Getting Rise of Nations (original, not GOG version) to work properly on Linux, using Wine, may be a bit frustrating. Here are the fixes you need:

from Winetricks download/install:
directmusic (already in directx_feb2010_redist.exe package) to get sound
You might also need directx_Jun2010_redist.exe (not sure)
mfc42 (already in vcrun6 I guess), mfc40 (if your winetricks version has it), msxml4, vcrun6, d3dx9 (??.dll)

Change theses in rise2.ini:

Windowed Width=1366
Windowed Height=768
FullScreen=0
VSync=1
SkipIntroMovies=1
ForceHardwareCursor=1
ForceGDICursor=1
ForceStaticCursor=0
ForceLowCPUBackgroundVid=1
CPU_grade_override(A-F or AUTO)=F
AllowAllResolutions=1


see https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=17614

You should do all this in a Wine Prefix (using something like WINEPREFIX=~/.wine2) because the modifications clash with your default windows applications/games

Darth Vader's Jewish Origin - The Golem of Star Wars

صورة
The design and concept of Darth Vader is partially based on Jewish myths and traditions. Many of Star Wars fans are already aware of the 3 lines of Hebrew letters that appear on the character's "Chest Plate", but here I'll provide more details on the "Jewish origin" of the infamous Dark Lord! Here you can see a close-up of the lines on Vader's breastplate from Return of the Jedi. The first & third lines are problematic and not easy to understand. אב מצש גלמציצ עד שלכה (Hebrew is written from right to left) The first line has 5 letters in two words.. apparently meaningless unless, with a bit of stretching it, we read it as (Father - Saturday) (AB - M Ts Sh) The third may be read as "till his cast down" (AD - Sh L K H) { שלכ sh-l-k = ‘cast off, throw down, cause to go’} The second line is the interesting one.. Written upside down.. It's more like a "label" than a part of a sentence, and the letters are: (G L M Ts...
