Help me run Pro Rally 2001 (it's very easy)

Hey everyone.

So, the problem is that in order to launch Pro Rally 2001, you first need to launch the RallySetup.exe, so that the game would create a config file called ed3.ini. But I use Linux and am trying to run this game with Wine. And Wine seemingly can run the main executable, but not RallySetup.exe.

So, what I need is for someone who uses Windows to just install that game and then sned me that file ed3.ini. I don't think I can tell you where to download the game, but it's basically abandonware, so many websites have it.

So anyway, if you helped me, I'd be very grateful.

EDIT: Thank you so much to everyone who participated!

Unfortunately, the game still doesn't work at the moment. I suppose I'll have to just run a virtual machine for it. But I wouldn't know if I didn't try.

Wine configuration to get the game running on my machine (creating a new .wine prefix):

**Create 32bits wine:**WINEARCH=win32 wineboot

**Mount ISO:**sudo mount -o loop ./Pro\ Rally\ 2001.iso /tmp/mntiso/

**Install the game:**wine /tmp/mntiso/SetupUbi.exe

**updating the game (optional?):**wine prorally2001_v11.exe

**Install nglide:**wine nGlide210_setup.exe

**install INDEO codecs (Downloaded from https://archive.org/details/intel-indeo-codec-3.2-4.1-5.0):**wine IV5PLAY.EXE

**in winecfg add dll override:**ir50_32.dll

Paste the ED3.INI file in the game directory

**Run the game (will crash):**wine C:\UbiSoft\ProRally2001\ProRally.exe

**Run RallySetup and select glide:**wine C:\UbiSoft\ProRally2001\RallySetup.exe

**Configure glide to use vulkan:**wine c:\windows\system32\nglide_config.exe

**Run the game (will work):**wine C:\UbiSoft\ProRally2001\ProRally.exe

For me, the game started but got stuck on loading screen. Had to use the AMD patched version and replace ProRally.exe

molochthagod OP ,

Hey, thanks for your help. I was able to get to the point where the game's intro video runs and it crashes. Then, according to your guide, I should run RallySetup, but it still doesn't work. The logs don't show nothing either, only this error 3 times: ERROR: ld.so: object '/usr/$LIB/libgamemodeauto.so.0' from LD_PRELOAD cannot be preloaded (cannot open shared object file): ignored.But, AFAIK, it's inconsequential
