I am running Ubuntu 14.04 w/ wine1.6. also tried with wine1.7 I am trying to run SimCity 2013 which I know works perfectly fine with any Windows machine. When I run the exe it returns:

"Error Code: [4000] SimCity could not find the EA WebKit DLL. SimCity will now exit."

The dll is named "eawebkit.dll"

I tried using winetricks and add the dll and select every option available to no avail.

The file is in the correct folder in order to run just as another machine running Win 7 does. My thoughts are, there is some configuration file possibly needing altered. I think the program is looking outside the .wine/drive_c parameters.

Any thoughts? Tricks? Bag of bones??

Here is the output:

  • The only suggestion I've got is to investigate whether the latest wine 1.7 improves matters. If you try this remember to submit a test result on winehq - if it works ... you can add this as an answer yourself. good luck.
